Hi guys just bought this Radiator to go with my 360mm radiator in the front of my case.

here is a youtube video of the same case i have with the same radiator that will go in the same spot.
Its a very thick radiator : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSTrDg7g9qo

but it looks sick :D
now knowing that the radiator will fit in my case my problem is what fans do i get.

3x 140mm.
i heard that this radiator prefers fans with low rpms as its not as constricted as those other radiators that require high presure to get the air moving.
or i could be wrong someone that has this radiator should know

though my question is what fans to get for it must be the best performance i can get with the least amount of noise possible to get there.

either those 2 then but 3 of them thanks for the info mate...
if anyone else has any suggestions let us know cheers. will be purchasing the fans tomorrow.
those are cheaper aswell than the ones i was going to get as those where going to cost £52 lol
unfortunatly those 2 fans are out of stock on ocuk.

still anymore info from people would be sweet.
 
yea unfortunately they're out of stock =(

i'd say go for the noctua industrial ppc, but they're crazy expensive and anyone with more sense than money wouldn't touch them with a bargepole lol =x

hey i bought those ones for my 360mm rad the 3000rpm mofos lol there super loud but i have them under control or my pc would be lifting off the ground...
 
well guys i have made my final choices.


In Stock
140mm Akasa AK-FN063 Viper Fan High Performance S-FLOW Blade Quiet Fan
140mm Aerocool Dead Silence Red LED Fan Dual Material/Colour FDB Fan 10.8dBA
140mm Noiseblocker NB-BlackSilentPRO PK3

between those 3 :D

arghhhh now what one to get hmmm
 
I'd go for the corsair sp140s (but for some reason ocuk doesn't stock them even though everybody else does)
 
do corsair not do the colored rings version of the SP140? i could do with three of them as they will match my AF120's and my SP120's
 
Guys quick question, this radiator is coming today and i plan on setting it all up.
is there any need for me to flush this radiator before using it ? i heard somewhere that some companys flush the radiators right out of the facotry and also this is full copper so it wont rust anyway....

just a lot of hassle to flush it when i get it before fitting it.
 
i would flush every rad.

you just dont know how much flux and small particulates will be floating about in there. for the same a few minutes with hot water its worth it.
 
ok i will do that then, with hot water for 5 minutes then i will shake it and empty it then do it again for 5 minutes then repeat then i will let 50c+ hot water sit in it for 20 minutes then flush it and then mount it and use it with my mayhems liquid.
 
I am using 120mm Enermax slow fans (850rpm) and temps are great in my loop (3x360mm ek pe rads, push only), cooling 4770k 4.2 and 2 780s.
Enermax have a nice option for you too:

or PWMs:

These are very quiet fans.
I have 17 x 120s and 1 140 in my rig. All running at max speed and can barely hear them while sitting at the desk.
