Push or pull or both ?

Would I see any gain from using push/pull fans on my top radiator ? or is it better to use push or pull ? if which is going to be the best option.

It's really not going to make any material difference to your temps your better off investing in one set of decent fans connected to a fan controller.

That's exactly what I've got

So don't bother putting extra set of fans in then.
got fans pushing air atm.

You might be better off putting them in pull that way you get as much dust build up on the rad (unless of course you have dust filters in place).

I'v tried all three, and settled for pull as my rad is mounted on the outside rear of my case as there is very little in temps but pull also takes less dust into the rad. Using 1000rpm fans, see sig for spec.
