Are you asking about the stock aluminum vs copper brass? aluminum cools better especialy if you get an aftermarket one with more cores.

I'm wondering more in the lines off Griffin and Be Cool radiators. Also some that can be suggested that I may not familiar with. Just wondering if they are worth the $$.

No problem with cooling, I was just looking to upgrade if it was worth it.

I would stick to your stock radiator. If it is not a problem then there is no need to fix it. I am currently running an Be Cool Radiator and would say I am not all that impressed.
