gotta say, i'd not considered removing one of the fans..

I had it on 1 fan and it worked just as good as it does with 2.

Look at my earlier pic on this thread.

You know how some software can be

I do m8 yes.

Just gone back to folding with the fans locked at 1000 (hardly audible) and cpu is 35~36C

I went from 3 to 2 to 1 fan on my cooler. Air or clc, same principle it seems.
What's a couple of degrees eh?

snakefood · 11 Dec 2012 at 21:59

Do you have the fan as intake, or exhaust?

can see us all coming back here next summer, after strapping 6 fans & an AC unit to our pc, begging for a few degrees less

Intake and it seemed to be cooler. Mind you I have 8 fans going on in my case

Ripshod · 11 Dec 2012 at 22:02

@snakefood;
cos I've got a top outlet fan I'm set as intake.

Uncle Petey · 11 Dec 2012 at 22:03

Edit. nevermind.

snakefood · 11 Dec 2012 at 22:04

I have the 650D, has a nice (upgraded to spectre pro) 200mm fan on the top, so I too run it as intake.

Someone said the temps aren't really life changing. 1c to 2c. I see a patten here. No matter what you do the temps aren't that much different.

I laughed when I read that...I pictured you blasting a whole bundle of spiders outta the rear of your pc, and monitoring the insect flow for performance..

Shame I haven't got vanity lighting. The webs are awesome. Must have sneaked in while I had the side off.
