yeah, need those high cfm one. but if cannot tolerate with the noise, maybe can try get fan controller.
as for me, i will set the fans to max speed while gaming, and set it back to slower while idle....

i'm using cm UV fans for exhaust and side intake for gc. but delta for my front intake...have to mix up silents and high cfm fans to get best result..

late reply.. hehehe..

bcoz i have use both of it

owh ic... so do u meant that adding fans on it wouldn`t give much effect compare to its passive state?

aa yess.. now i remember.. i`m only a nuubie. don`t know how to put a fan on it
but i think i`ve oredi mount a delta-ffb with it

yeah i meant it bcoz i already used both of it ma.

may i ask whether ur proc at stock or OC-ed when ur using them both @ the cooler?from what i knowla HR 01 only shows its true potential at OC-ed proc.Golden orb is good but not good enuff for OC-ed proc.im using it now btw(2nd rig)

its like this.

Blue Orb
stock = 36C
load (oc) = 44

TR HR-01
stock = 42
load (oc) = 54


i`ll try to find out my screenies to compare both results as i don`t really remember where i put those
my files all bersepah with my projects & assignments

maybe the mounting of the blue orb much more better than TR HR-01 at ur mobo??? coz saw forumer doing test for TR he modified the mounting mechanism.....

yup maybe you r rite. bcoz its impossible that blue orb can beat hr-01 in terms of value and performance..

coz blue orb maybe a good choice for SFF or mini ATX case which space are really limited, but for standard atx case, TR HR-01 really performs well....

okay, i would just like to know what is the best fan configuration, air flows, for this casing. thanks.

Just use the front intake fan and the rear exhaust fans.
This is because if you use the sidepanel fans, you will be disturbing the airflow.

Yeah, plan go for High CFM 120mm fan for exhaust.
For you High CFM mean how much? > than 50?
Noise < 25dBA i guess is acceptable level.

So, >50 CFM & noise < 25dBA fan should easy to find in M'sia and it's cheap, right?

is that important for the "air pressure"?

sorry, i new in this cooling mod.

this thread tok about fans?

anyway laa new fans from scythe..nice indeed..im liking the 1000rpm model

http://scythe.co.jp/cooler/ultra-kaze.html

At 1k rpm it pushes 44cfm holly quaca molly

i wonder the price then

very3 good fans indeed

currently im having only the front intake fan and the side fan, planning to buy another one or two for the rear.

my sidepanel fan is currently exhausting air. i know the front lower fan should be an intake and the exhaust for the rear for a correct air flow. but should i blow air in or out for my sidepanel? (may plan to OC my gpu)

i also read somewhere where the author actually suggest one intake at the rear and exhaust at sidepanel (front intake--> sidepanel out + rear intake--> psu out) . wouldnt this create an air flow short circuit, or actually provide better cooling for both mobo, cpu and gpu?

thanks alot again.

i think most proberly ur HR-01 mounting got problems ??
mine E6600 is using HR-01 on passive, clock to 2.88 (mild only)......

Idle Temp ~30 at room temperature, no air cond (but i'm not sure whether the DFI mobo software is accurate or not)
Loading 40 orthos, gaming 36+

btw might be the TIM apply not even ?

Is it necessary to clean the previous TIM using alcohol, or should I just clean it just by using a simple cloth or tissue paper?

I'm planning to install a new cooler replacing the stock Intel cooler.

i just wipe it off and apply new coat of TIM.dunt bother bout those things life to short

Between these two cpu air cooler,
Zalman 9700 LED, Thermaltake v1
which one is better? Since they are almost same in the design.

But 9700 are noiser?

Both need a good air flow casing with exhasut and front air intake.
What casing will as good to use the cooler? Can someone post the casing's pic?

mind telling us y u choose these two COOLER?for casing better check the casing recommendation thread.there's 1 casing the Lian Li forgot wat model retails at rm238 full alu case has 2x12cm.1 at intake and 1 for exhaust

i think what he is referring to is the cooler...

opss sorry i shud have type cooler instead of casing.my bad
