IMHO, since most frontmount ic's end up in front of the rad anyway, this is a workable setup.

obviously you are going to pick up radiated heat from the rad, but when moving , airflow goes through the ic first, then the rad, so this setup works fine..
big plus : "drops straight in without any modifications at all!! "

btw , this setup works for me... :wink:

I would like to compare IAT between this setup and a normal FMIC.
