What can I do with a 80mm radiator?

[MojangYang]

Hi, guys. I found a 80mm radiator on eBay, and it is ridiculously cheap. Just wondering what can you do with one of those? Can it perform better than the Intel stock cooler?

Than a stock cooler.... Maybe. 80mm is tiny, and heat dissipation will be terrible. You're probably better off going with a cooler master hyper T2 or 212 if you can afford that.

you can cool your coffee down with it.

if its so cheap, i will probably be out of allu. and if you then get a copper cpu block, its going to be bad. and if its a 80 mm i dont even know if it suppors g4 threading?

that's tiny, i want to see it. You got as link?

for a computer, not really much useful stuff aside from maybe some very extreme edge cases.

 

also, no matter how cheap the rad is, you still need a block, pump, tubing, and liquid. and when you add all that up, just get yourself a decent air cooler.

idk it looks decently thin? atleast get an 80mm noctua fan or something like that to stick on there cause that stock fan will be a piece of actual garbage

they make 80/60/40 mm rads.

 

 

mostly for gas(petrol) RC  enthusiasts.  to WC stuff

 

at a certain point you are expected to do things yourself, not every thign comes with a kit,   but say you could cool off your 3D printer if you used it all the time

use two, and rig a wifi pwm adjuster and add directors, and you could make a air cooled hover-rad. totally radical idea (to many puns)

Anything you want, is the answer.  If you want to have fun trying what is the worst thing that could happen?  You spend money you would be spending anyways?
