Noob Triple Rad Question

[krazycommando]

Hi All

Just installing new WC build and not sure sequence for Triple Rad and 3 Silent eagle Fans 2000. Do i put the fans between rad and roof and use long screws or screw fans to rad and then screw rad to top of case also whichever way i do it does the fans blow into case or out of the case. Sorry if seems daft question

Screw the fans to the bottom or the rad to push air through and the the rad to the case.

It's all up to you as it will make very little difference. I have my 360 pushing air out of the case, so everything else stays cool and if you have a rear fan, set it to intake so the cool air will be exhausted through your rad, thus improving temps marginally.



Edit: Added crimbo smilies because I can

The catch with having it as an intake is it will suck in all the dust unless you fit a dust cover.

feeling festive?

Yeah it doesn't matter whether you go push or pull - just do whatever is easiest for you buddy. I'd go pull, to prevent nasty dust build up!

Hi Guys

Thanks for answers think i will go pull on the rad so will fit fans on barb side sucking air through rad and use rear fan as exhaust. Think its gonna be a late night lol

Id go pull too, just so it's easier to clean the dust off
