Radiator suggestions - RRTech...The SOURCE for Extreme Liquid ...

I starting to prep for Ian vy-bridge build and am looking for radiator suggestions.

As this point I am planning to use the Antec p280 as a case and on running a dual rad internally; at the top. Based on the best measurements I was able to find, unfortunately I can't remember where this was, I will have 38mm to fit a radiator before encroaching on the motherboard. So this limits my options to something thin. I am planning on using gentle typhoon fans at 1,850 rpm.

So far the best radiator I have been able to find that has been tested by Martin is the Swiftech MCR220-XP. Which should provide me about 180W of heat dissipation, more then enough for 77W Ivy-bridge even with a healthy overclock.

However, due to the reputation Swiftech has around these parts, I'm a little reticent to make the purchase, and I still look for any suggestions or recommendations.
