Hi guys,

I need recommendations for a pair of replacement fans for my current 'single' fan pull setup. I was looking at the Corsair performance dual pack - seem like quite pokey fans? The noise isn't really an issue because they'll be on a controller :)

Anything else?

Thanks.
 
Im running push-pull with Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120mm 1850 RPM @7v on my H80 very quiet,Corsair SP120 Quiet Series High Pressure Low Noise Speed: 1450 RPM
Are good also as they are made for rads.
 
Thanks mate! And are you getting good/better temps? Better than just a pull fan surely :)

Just to clarify then, this is my setup currently:

The fan attached to the case/rad is flowing out of the case, pulling air across the rad. With the addition of another fan, on the rad - inside the case, pushing air across the rad I will effectively created my push/pull setup? Sorry if that sounds daft but there are several conflicting web definitions of push/pull with regards to watercooling :confused:
 
Back fan drawing air out of the case and the other fan should be pushing air out :) hard to tell with temp difference as ive now got my rig on a box under my desk saving up for a new case and with the weather is so hot at the moment ,ive bought a load of the Corsair SP120 Quiet Series High Pressure Low Noise Speed: 1450 RPM fans as they are made for rads and they run quiet.
 
Get 2 of the 1450rpm, i dont see the sense in having the higher ones unless your case is silent

There is only type of push/pull set up - 1 or more fans blowing through the radiator and 1 or more fans pulling from the radiator. As long that all fan directional airflow are the same, then you are good.

But there are two orientations to set this up, where one is an intake and one is an exhaust. The orientation that you choose will vary from system to another. To some, intake will be optimal, to others, exhaust. Best is to try both and go with the one that gives you the best result.
