Hello everyone. I'm checking the cooling capacity for this double 60mm radiator and wondering if it can manage 125W without overclocking. I've attached the schematic here. After further investigation, I might also need a single 60mm radiator added. If anyone has experience with water cooling an htpc, I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks in advance.

It was quite a small project back then, using a Swiftech kit with two 80mm rads...I still have those.

Is the thickness 60mm, dual 120mm, or dual 140mm? Choose the one that fits.

Are you asking if it's 60mm thick and dual, or 120mm and dual, or 140mm? Based on any mix, just pick one.
No, it's actually a dual 60mm unit—uses 60mm fans. I built a water loop with an affordable single 80mm fan from Amazon to see if it could cool a 95W Q9400. It performed well, idling at 38°C and reaching 54°C under load. I believe the double 60 can handle 125W. I’d need to replace my Q9400 with a C2Q 65W "S" model so I can also run the 60W 750ti. It’s just for fun, trying to water cool my htpc. Thanks for your reply. If you’re keeping it open, I’ll test the double 60mm next week.
