Just recived it today And i LOVE it allready (tho i havnt installed it yet lol) Im about to start installing it but had a quick question. SHould i use the default fan or my Enermax Magma 120mm Fan with Batwing blades. Both are 120mm. Some people say about useing a push and pull system with two fans but i dont see it helping that much:/ . Any ideas? thanks
 
It helps me, without an extra fan on the back i would have no exhaust fan on my pc. Without the one on the other side there would be nothing blowing into the radiator. (except the warm air from RAM, graphics card and hard drives) I tried with a 1900RPM fan blowing over the radiator and it dropped 10c on load temps. Pitty its too noisy

No other fans on your pc? :confused: Change one of the case fans to exhaust and change the H50 to an intake ;)
All depends on your preference really; IE: does it shift more air? And at what sacrifice (if any) does that have on noise?
Once installed, the radiator fan is easy enough to remove if you wish. So if you find ur getting slightly high temps with the corsair stock fan you can switch it out to the Enermax one :)
I have a Sharkoon 2000rpm Push/Pull setup and it sits happily at 23 or so degrees at idle.
