I have a background in heat transfer, just to piggyback that the amount of heat flow gets dissipated into ambient via a rad plateaus really quickly against the fin length (rad thickness in this case), it's actually a tanh curve if I'm not mistaken. In other words, once passing a certain height (which is determined by many factors itself), you are not going to notice any meaningful gains, which is demonstrated in this video. In convection heat exchanger, fin density and length of the rad matters much more. Honestly high pressure head fans at low RPM with low resistance rads works wonder.

Well presented very interesting topic. I really enjoyed to watch it. Though I can't totally agree with conclusion. The thing is that in order to answer the question of rad thickness affect on cooling in a more scientific way, some conditions should be met. And the most important is that the rads should be all from the same series of the same manufacturer. This is because the difference between various models can be huge. For example the 30mm HWLabbs Nemesis GTS 280 will slightly outperform 45mm EK CoolStream CE280 across different fan speeds. But will lose in all but slowest fan speed to 45MM Alphacool XT45. When comparing Alphacool ST30 to XT45, the thinner will lose at all fan speeds. Thermal load is also very important - and here its ok as 180W for 240rads is kinda enough. So practically the answer to the question which rad to pick is kinda more complicated than just thickness. Starting with how much heat should be dissipated at required noise level at the given ambient (some have room temp of 19C while others can easily have around 30C). From there moving to how much space in case and what is required for tube routing and fill ports - thinner larger rad (say 280) will yield better cooling than thicker 240 in any any scenario. Sometimes even things like wideness of the rad can be a factor. For example Alphacool's rads are 1-2mm wider than fans, while HWLabs rads tend to be ~13mm wider. Those could be critical for SFF builds. As for the video topic, I noticed that there is very little cooling improvement in noise optimized systems (fans below 1500) with thicker rads. The biggest advantage is the number of ports. But there are thin rads with multiple ports - Alphacool. Not the best performance, but very compact and have largest number of ports. I'm in a SFF sect for very long time. So I could be wrong about performance in large cases.

I've seen this data replicated over the past 2 (or so) years and found it still holds up. In my SFF builds, cooling comes down to the fans. The dirt cheap radiator has always worked better in combination with the Noctua fans. And yes, the pumps are a factor. Indeed poor pump leads to poor results and elevated temps. AIOs are a good example (exit costume loops) since some rpms are "fixed". Love the info and please keep it going. And, of course, thanks for the content!

then a 240mm radiator is not enough since the top party of the case can also support a rad a thin 20-25mm or standard 30mm rad might fit that case well you can either reduce the rad thickness or reduce fan thickness i.e. 15mm thick fans well as long as everything fits.. but if there is a high power GPU then you will need 2x 240mm radiator in that case and i will prefer to use the 45mm thick rad at the bottom part.

well if this is an SFF build and your using the most high end parts like 14900k & 4090 then you want to consider adding a external radiator using a QC fitting and pass through fitting bracket if you don't want to drill holes on the case. for this type of set up a lot recommend a minimum of 3x 360mm radiator a 2x 360mm radiator is fine but at stock settings for both CPU & GPU and you will still running the fans at higher RPM to avoid that you need another 360mm radiator to lower than fan with and even OC .

More fan and less radiator thickness is always the answer. What most people don't realize is that the majority of performance gained or lost is due to airflow. Thick radiators only make sense if there isn't enough space for more radiator surface, i.e. longer and wider radiators. You CAN cool things with thick radiators, but then you need to have powerful fans running at very high rpm - it's not the ideal situation.

It appears that internal pipe length matters more than anything. Adding more rads would appear to be more beneficial than have a single thicker rad. I wonder if stacking two 20mm thick rads on top of each other would be better then a single 40mm rad. Perhaps do a 240 and a 360mm rad stacked on top of each other instead of a thick 40mm 360mm radiator. That way you can get the hoses to loop properly.

I’d go for the TX240 for space reasons. It does actually make good use of its thickness (thinness) by minimizing the offset between the frame and the core. That means you have to be very careful in screws choice but if you use the included screws your should be fine. You’re right in that below the GPU block there’s not much space. With the NR200 dual TX240 loop I opted for slim fans for better airflow, even though 25mm ones would have worked, they would have been right on the block.

I can test since I still have it setup. In my experience, when noise normalized at moderate fans speeds, typical push pull yields a benefit in the neighborhood of 1-2 degrees, putting it on par with a thick rad. The benefit is more that the thermal headroom is much higher if you disregard noise. If you have space for either, I’d personally go thick rad just because the rads are similar in cost, but another set of fans is going to be an added expense, perhaps a splitter cable too, more cables to manage.

Always. PC fans have quite a low performance in reality, compared to what we see on industrial applicationgs, HVAC systems and cars etc. Fans therefore need all the help they can get to cool your water effectively. A radiator will only work well if you can get lots of cool air to flow through it. That's why thick radiators typically have unexpectedly poor performance gains - you just can't effectively cram enough air through them using our little 12V fans. If you want a deep dive, go check out xtremerigs radiator roundup from 2015. It's an old article but they really did a professional job and the physics are spot on. You'll see that not everything we've been taught is factual.

Spending 200 on a custom cooling loop just to gain a few extra degrees... AIO's give you at best 44 c temps. custom loops give you at best 37 c temps. With an AC unit cooling the air to 3c, you can expect 20 c temps. Not to mention the positive air pressure, filtered air, and dry air...

Big Chinese brands like bykski and barrow are better than western parts btw. Usually made of copper and half the Price with the same quality. Aluminium is just for cost savings, it's worse In every way... This is one reason why cars use aluminium btw, for those that use that flawed argument against copper. Those radiators are so huge it makes a lot of difference

Your video made this even more important. Buying a better radiator is more important than buying the thickest one. oh and... Having the best fans is a no brainer since you're already spending more on cooling than your actuall Gpu regardless. It needs to be worth it

Not a great test. You need to test the same line with different thickness. Even if these rads were the same thickness they'd have different performance.

The truth is, the radiators only matter if the temps keep going up. If it ever levels off at a reasonable temperature, you're golden. It's a watts in and watts out equation.
