My pc been running warm too tbh, almost tried rigging a motorcycle radiator up to my cpu water cooler, just to keep things cooler,but I panicked about maybe the pump I have wouldn't cope with moving that much water.
Its an old post, i know, but i can't resist commenting on this one
Assuming you hook up the intake of your pump to the outlet of the radiator (at the bottom) and the heated fluids are pumped to the top of the radiator, i don't see any reason why your pump would have any issues. I can't imagine the pump won't be able to overcome the 40cm water column to the top of the radiator. It would be much the same if you had a large tower pc casing (if the hight of the radiator turns out to be an issue, you can always mount it horizontally
). It's the capacity of the pump that determines the flow of liquid, not the size of the radiator, in fact, a larger radiator probably means bigger channels, so less friction.
If you are willing/able to spend money on water cooling, you might consider looking at a new cpu with a lower tdp. I have an i5 3450 (77W) that's air cooled (stock cooler even) and i haven't had any issues with overheating during the summer.
