Swiftech MCR320 Stack Water Cooling Radiator Unboxing Linus Tech Tips

Linus Tech Tips presents an early unboxing of the Swiftech MCR320 QP Stack, a triple 120mm water cooling radiator variant designed to stack with another radiator or stand alone, used in a forthcoming Corsair Obsidian 800D build. The video opens with the box contents and a quick overview of the two types of MCR 320 QP radiators, emphasizing the stackable design and the idea of parallel flow between the two radiators when stacked with a minimal gap. The host walks through the accessory package, highlighting the six O-rings, half-inch fittings, and two worm-drive clamps that are included to secure tubing and seal the stacked assembly. He then presents the informational guide and installation materials, pointing out how to configure a stack of two radiators or a combination of stackable and non-stackable units to maximize cooling capacity. We see a detailed rundown of screws, mounting points, and the protective wrap for the radiator, followed by a refresher on the radiator’s quiet power design, which uses a low fins-per-inch count optimized for quieter fans. The host briefly explains the expected airflow and fan compatibility, noting his plan to use low-flow fans (Yate Loon) for a quieter setup, and closes with a teaser about future coverage of the radiator installation inside the 800D case. Throughout, the focus remains on unpacking, component inspection, and practical notes for assembly rather than performance testing, leaving viewers with a clear understanding of what is included and how the stackable radiator differs from a standard unit.
