The default V8 fan is already actually quite loud under full speed @ 2200 RPM.

no HAF 912 pictures here?

i don't think so, d max so far would be 1900rpm. only excalibur for now reaches 2200rpm

n i'm using d similar 'default' fan for d V8 which is sickleflow all around in my casing. excalibur's sound were more...

I am using it, noisy haha

y not try to lower down the speed when you do not want to use it? i tot V8 comes with a regulator..

my V6GT even worse it doesnt come with the regulator and it always run on max speed 2.2k rpm until i control it using Asus Fan Expert

i prefer to run it to its max all d time so tat my proc won't overheat. after all, i oc it quite aggressively, frm 3.2 to 3.9GHz currently for phenom II X4

btw, tuniq tx-2 + excalibur = 3~4'C diff compared to my previous reading using CM's thermal paste n sickleflow

edit : oh btw, i dun mind d noise most of d time act

depends on budget bro..

CM Pro Gold 1000 or 800 should be nice..

I didn't expect i7 TDP to exceed the V8 maximum heat transfer capacity

I thought 180W is more than enough, I was wrong

its time for V10 or V6GT

CM 850 silent pro ok? can get RM507+ postage..

What do I do with my V8 then?
Expensive when I bought it zzz

Didn't know V6 is better.

dual fan wor, of course la more powderful than our V8...

anyways, i did few tests last nite regarding d side panel's fan. previously it's set as intake n blow directly to my GC's exhaust. tested without the fan running n finally as exhaust

conclusion

no fan = temperature is still d same compared to previous intake configuration BUT it takes a while for my GC to cool down to the respective idle temp

exhaust = the best i think due to the fact that it helps in reducing the temp of my GC in 1~2'C

v6gt better..

It's not about the fan, it's the design I think.

The heat dissipation/transfer rate of V6 is higher than V8. Stupid CM labelling con us.

In the real life,V8 engine is better than V6 engine

I m not sure abt yours but there a the bundled software from my mobo allow me to sync the processor load the the fan load so my fan will always go with my processor

10% processor load = 10% fan load

Kindly upload few pics with in n out

Let's see,

I am using Real Power 450W, 2006 edition
Silent Pro 500W
5-6 CM standard fans
V8
USP 100
Elite 333

Stupid Elite 333 cannot fit V8, force me to change to USP 100.

Hi, i thinking of buying haf-x but there somethings i must know ahead.

1,i need some forumer's opinion about haf-x.
2,perhaps some cons & pros for this monster.
3,also, i would like to know what kind of fan good for this casing.
4,finally, i wanna know if the red led fan in front can be change?
