    I’ve got a redneck engineering version of this that is arguably better: 4 480x120x45mm radiators mounted on a generic 20 inch box fan - even at the lowest fan speed it has no problem keeping 2 high end PCs (daisy chained) VERY cool and is almost completely silent. I’ve added a frame from $10 worth of aluminium flat from a hardware store and used metal screws to attach extended feet directly to the frame of the fan so it doesn’t fall over - I’ve only used a hacksaw blade and a drill to make it, I’ve lived in a condo at the time and that’s all I’ve had available.

    At that price, I could get an actual Honda radiator, a box fan, and some tape and tube adapters for 1/4 that price for more heat dissipation.

      The problem with that is it would be an aluminum radiator, so you’d get electrolytic corrosion with copper blocks / fittings (vast majority of the market) gunking the whole thing up fairly quickly

      Except that their top end model costs $600; that’s got to be a nice car to have such expensive parts.

      That’s the 4th iteration of that thing. The MO-RAs itself are pretty old and sold for a long time. Water cooling enthusiasts definitely know about them and the company. I remember the previous versions holding 120mm fans. This one looks quite a bit more refined though.
