Hi lads, got another one for you.
I'm currently using some cheap 200mm from Raijintek (https://i.imgur.com/R28xpzG.png). - https://www.raijintek.com/en/products_detail.php?ProductID=121#tabs-Specification
At the moment of the purchase (two years ago) it made sense because of the price (11 quid each IIRC), and well, the few bits I've read around they seemed "ok" as they "push a ton of air" - I failed and interpreted this as "ton of static pressure air".
Turns out that after stacking 4x360mm guetto style (https://i.imgur.com/u41XSDF.jpeg) using "arctic's p12 pwm pst" I realised how crappy the anemi 200mm are, because the p12s are able to push air through the radiator as there's nothing in the way, and what make it worse, is the fin density of these 4x360 is much much higher than the alphacool 1260mm I'm using these 200mm Anemi with. I can feel some air flow being pushed through the radiator at 100% rpm, but it is clearly the case of these 200mm are just for air flow, and not optmised at all for air-pressure. On the other hand, I can feel much more airflow in the back of the radiators using the p12.
The question is, is it worth it going 200mm>140mm or I am being just "too precious"?
