Hi supersound,

It will fit, but we recommended at least Elite 431 for better compatibility. smile.gif

Ok thanks. Anyway, I decided on going air cooled heat sinks as this Elite 311 are quite cramp to put a water cooled system like you said. Been using CM stuffs for the past 10 years thumbup.gif
Using 311 I need to drill a hole on top to let fresh air in.
But all your CM air CPU coolers should be able to fit AMD CPUs, right? As I bought a CM air cooler last year for my 1st generation quad core AMD CPU. Don't want to waste money and letting the good stuff laying in the box for no reason.

hi supersound,

You'll have to refer to the technical specifications which can be found on the box of the CPU cooler.
Support for AMD CPU Socket AM2/AM3/FM1/FM2 should be present.  nod.gif

Already installed, better performance than the original CM CPU cooler in terms of noise.
But temperature only dropped by 1°C, so need to get a thermal grease, add another fan for it thumbup.gif
Anyway, what is the suitable fan for Hyper 101? I thinking on adding another fan to have push/pull to improve the cooling, thanks.

not sure is correct place to post or not ... here goes ..recently gotthe seidon 120v Plus .. the question being the fan should be mounted pulling air in to the casing or pushing it out from the casing ?

After studying the casing configuration(CM Elite 311), using liquid cooler are not a wise step for me.
So I still go for air cooled(Hyper 101) but some modifications will be needed to increase cool air to enter the casing.

Hi supersound,

We're sorry for the delayed reply.
You can opt for our Blade Master 80mm fan for the Hyper 101. smile.gif
Though, good overall airflow in your casing is required for the best performance out of it.

No worries, since I still got some time before buying the fans and thermal paste.
But yes, I need to open 1 hole some where to increase the air flow.

So today I got my self 1 12cm fan for casing inlet, 1 8cm fan placed on the CD drive tray as air intake and replacing thermal paste.
Prior to this, the average temperature are at 47-50°C and now maintain at 43-46°C.
