I've just put more panflo fans in my pc at the moment, and i have four that push 115 cfm each, does this mean that there is 460 CFM of air coming out the back of my case ?


It certainly cools my pc well, but im just wondering whats the craziest amount of fans that someone on here has put in their pc :)


For example does someone on here have 10 120mm Delta's inside their pc ? :p
 
I have seven 120mm Akasa Ambers on my CM 830 Stacker and a 120mm Delta on my HS - can hardly hear the ambers but when the Delta is flat out, it sounds like a helicopter taking off :D

So you have... not far off 500cfm in one computer. Sell them and buy water cooling tbh :p £90 worth of fans, no system could need that.

I get temps of around 42oc when playing battlefield 2 , thats with a X2 4400 @ 2640 with 1.5 volts,

I consider that to be a very good temp :)

I also trust the sensors on my mobo before anyone says they are dodgy ( Abit AN8 C/W Latest Bios )


I don't think water cooling would lower my temps very much though :(
 
I wasnt talking to you... but anyway I get similar temps with my 3200+ 2.5ghz/1.55v :(@crap clocker

I would be willing to test your X2 though :p (this is with a 1000rpm 90mm fan on the northbridge, freezer 64 pro @ 75% and 2x120mm case fans @ 7v)
 
Used to have a pc with 4 delta focused flow 120mm's on the back, all exhausts...

Was too bloody noisy. Animals were afraid of going near incase they got sucked in, light slowed down near it, it even used to distort space-time...

Never again, silence is the goal these days.. Dont need to be deaf to be cool.

True, but I don't think your system needs to be that cool? The CPU would run quite happily at 52c instead of 42, and your system wouldn't make such a racket!
 
Mine seems to run fine at 62c, only using 3x 120mm Yate Loon silent fans though, can hardly hear the machine unless you get really close to it.

Scythe Ninja Vs Water Cooling.


Last time i looked the water cooling kits got hotter during the summer and were only slightly better in the winter.

I would need a review that shows the water cooling to be better, then i might go over to H20 :)

LMAO!

Skythe Ninja isn't even a pimple on the ass of a good watercooling setup.

If you want proof, ask anyone who watercools.

Click me!

I would happily do an air cooling Vs watercooling comparison if i had any air cooling to compare water against, once you've moved over to water you wont go back.

What i can say from experience is that going from stock P4 prescott and stock cooler to my watercooling setup HALVED my CPU temps.

not exactly a lot of fans but for sheer comic value, i modded my old Shuttle SN45G chassis with a 120mm Delta EHE lol

that kept my 3400+ clawhammer at 28 degrees idle but looked and sounded like someone had tried to make a hair dryer out of a shoe box :)

EDIT: found a pic lol

Not sure what you mean. All cooling is subject to ambient temperatures.
 
I have took the sidepanel of my pc off, in this heat, and put a house fan blowing into the case lol....

Seems to be doing a good job.
