Thats a lot of Corsair Fan!!

Very cool stuff there Snef.
Thanks for the pron

Indeed!!

I'm pretty impressed by Corsair lately, especially with them getting into the radiator fan section of things...might have to splurge and replace my GT's with the SP version of their fans as well

They also have a ram block now but its aluminum.....

I'd like to request a small test (if you can).

Can you run load test and see if you have any difference whatsoever with:

1. Push-Pull
2. Push
3. Pull ?

It won't be completely clean test as one raw of disabled fans will be adding restriction, so push-pull will ahve unfair advantage, but nevertheless it can be interesting info.

[snef]

Yes, waiting for 6 more fan and i will do these test

Now i have one rad with push/pull , and pull on 2 other ex360
And my temp drop around 5c
But....l these fan run at 2300rpm
If i put at 1250 ( same as my previous fan) the drop is only 1 or 2c, i think it will be better with all rad with push and pull fan
But now if i need more air i have it,

[bungwirez]

whats the noise difference between 2300 and 1250?

[snef]

whats the noise difference between 2300 and 1250?

at 1250 these fane are quiet like my previous Bitefenix spectre pro but at 2300 to much noise, but its a gaming rig
these fan at 2300 are the loudest fan i ever have, but, i always bought quiet fan before, all fan i bought always 25db or lower
they are my first fan rated at 35db, its hard to me to tell you if they are noisy or not
im a fan of silence and i set all my fan at 70%rpm and its perfect for my for a 24/7 use, not for a HTPC but for a gaming rig its perfect

i connected a temp sensor and set my controller to auto, 70% rpm and if i need more they up to 100% when i use 100% CPU power
but i played BF3 yesterday for more than 3 hours and never going more than 70%

[MisterMom]

Betcha this system would do 5,000+ in Heaven 3.0 1920x1080, break P60,000 in Vantage, 10,000 in FurMark. Not to mention 200fps in BF3 5760x1080 maxed out !!!! Rock on dude (hey, what happened to the headbangin' smiley?)

P.S. I'm usually not into the red color scheme, but this is now the sexiest thing next to my wife!!!

[brechan69]
