[Kornowski]

Are these fans any good?

Also, if I was to stick another fan at the other end of the duct on the front, so I'd have:

MOBO - Fan 1 - Duct - Fan 2 - Front of Case

If Fan 1 was a higher CFM that FAN 2 would it cause any problems?

Thanks!

 

[Kornowski]

Bump

Those are pretty good fans, nothing extraordinary about them though. 45-60cfm is a pretty good air flow rate for 80-92mm fans.

 

[Kornowski]

Alright, awesome, thank's Geoff!

What about the duct question?

 

[taylormsj]

No i think the higher CFM should be Fan 2 anyway to blow more cool air onto the heatsink

Fan 2 is the one at the front of the case, did you mean the one on the inside, fan 1?

 

[taylormsj]

Yep

 

[Kornowski]

Ah right, thought so, should get them ordered pretty soon

Thanks!

Off topic, but danny is your xms 2 ram 667 MHz or 800MHz stock?

The top link was 35 dba.
Not sure if that matters to you or not...

EDIT: And bottom one goes up to 60. Would you run the bottom one on 100%?

Probably. What's the use of such an good fan if you're not gonna run it full speed?

Yeah, I'd run them all on full, the bottom one goes up to 34 I think.

 

[taylormsj]

I was just asking cos in your sig it says @ 720MHz and i was wondering if you were underclocking your 800MHz ram Lol.

 

[Kornowski]

Oh, lol, Nah, I'm OC'ing it

 

[taylormsj]

Wooppeee

 

[Kornowski]
