As per topic title, I'm considering on whether to upgrade to a CM HAF 912 Advanced from my [CM Elite 311 Plus] or get a Arctic Accelero Extreme Plus II.

Reason is because GPU fan is too noisy on 60% speed onwards. Around 40-50% it's really silent but temperature of GPU will hit around 95C.

I can't bare the noise at all shakehead.gif

I saw Arctic Extreme Plus II can reduce temperatures around 30C from various reviews OMG drool.gif Imagine gaming full load at 50C only?? thumbup.gif



Ok so I need feedback from actual users around here biggrin.gif

One more question, how to pasang ah? I wonder if the seller can help me fix or not hmm.gif

Or get a better casing? doh.gif HAF 912 Advanced got 4 fan intakes from rear,front,top(huge 200mm fan) and side thumbup.gif

You definitely have a point there smile.gif

If let's just say I get a HAF 912 Advanced, how much temperature drop can I get at full load. Assuming I'm getting 85C during gaming on my current casing

Ok.. if you already have a HAF 912 advanced..arrange the case fans.. intake and outake ... try put outtake on top ... cuz hot air usualy flow's up thumbup.gif will drop around 4-6 C i think.. depends on your room conditions too nod.gif

and if you want to get a GPU cooler...
