Hey guys,
I'm putting a fan on my haf 922 sidepanel to cool my 6870 crossfire. My bottom card is quite cool, idling 35-37 degrees, loading 70, but my top one is sucking up the hot air form the bottom one and is getting up to 83 in benches. Not a trainsmash, but I want to bring it down. a 120mm on the side will blow directly on the cards
Was wondering, should I go with the quieter, slower sickleflow, which is also quite cheap, but will it make a difference in temps? Or should I go with the more expensive xcalibur that pushes quite a lot of air, bit seems more noisy? I'm also considering putting in the 200mm side fan, but because I'm going to mod my side panel in the future this would be a waist since I would not use it then. I have heard that the 200mm makes a huge difference though...
Will a 120mm be enough???
