Ninja... Two fans??

matt631 · 13 Dec 2006 at 12:34

Right ive got a asus 680i board and im stuck as per usual on weather i should use the ninja or the tuniq tower... if i do use the ninja im thinking about mouning another fan on the other side of the unit creating a push pull method. Will this have any effect and will it mean that it will then be better at cooling than the tuniq

Yeah it'll probably help a bit.

iirc
you have better luck with push push systems than push pull, as you get more cold air over the fins!

Same here

I think if I get to 3Ghz, that'll be where I'll stop

Sorry, I'm new to this forum lingo

What's push-pull, etc? A fan arrangement? Push = blowing air into the case and Pull = sucking air out?

I think there talking about mounting 2 fans on 1 heatsink both pushing air through, or pulling air through depending what way you look at it lol

There's "sort of" enough space, if you mount on the sides it'll sit over the ram and one of the motherboard heatsinks and if you mount them on the top/bottom it'll sit over another heatsink. You don't really need 2 fans on a Ninja, I certainly don't.
