Both on suck ?
Or one suck and other on blow ?
On my antec 900 one fan on top and one at the back. Both are blowing out maybe if i slap a fan on my True, as im running passive at the moment it will help my temps.

Heres a pic of my setup with my previous fans.
In that setup the fan nearest the ram is pushing the air into the heatsink, sticker on fan facing ram, the second fan at the rear has the sticker side facing the back of the cooler, this then pulls the air out and expels it through the rear case fan. That was my old arctic pwm 400-1500rpm fans on the cooler and yate loon 1200 rpm fans on the case. I found that they werent up to the job of shifting the heat, so i swapped out all my fans for sharkoon silent eagle 2000 rpm's.

If i want to clock my i7 past 3.6ghz and stable i will need to add a fan the my true. Im just so lazy i dont want to go opening up my case again 
i have one fan on my true at a stable 3.8.there is no point adding a second fan as the exhaust fan on the antec 1200 is a few inches away and my temps are the same as when i had 2 fans on my true,dont make any difference on the antec 1200

I get around 85c when i max it all out. It also depends on how much volts you put into your CPU.
Ouch! Thats running very hot!

What volts have you got running through that?
I dont think I would be happy running that for 24/7 or just 24/1

Around 1.4v I know i have screen pics around here...
I sold it on and it was working 100% at the time. So even if i was pushing it to far i was not going to keep it for long.
I think it was a great chip and surved me very well the few months i had it.
