has anyone tried this cooler with 2* Delta FFB1212EHE yet???

curious to see how much it benefits from a fan like the FFB

the youtube clip states the fans are 140CFM and 60dBA which is wrong...

its 59dBA and 190 CFM.

i guess theyre really FFBs just that the feller put the specs wrongly..they do look like FFBs though, and the part where the fans stop is the same as how an FFB stops as well.

a retail fan controller than can officially support the Delta FFB AND the Delta TFB

but then basically its just a high powered rheostat...basically if we can find that rheostat here we can DIY our own oso

i used to run the my XP-120 with a Delta FFB last time...full blast whenever im not home. but when im home i switch it to 5v la to make it more silent

coz i wanted a cooler with 120mm fans. the XP120 can even work with low power fans... even a CM UV Silent fan @ 5v can give good results with the cooler...

not like the XP-90C..to get good results ull need a strong fan...strong fan aka NOISE! somemore 90mm fans are friggin noisy compared to 120mm @ the same CFM.

the XP-120 can benefit from both... the more the air the better the results. i like the flexibility. which is what makes me personally think that the XP-120 is a better buy than the XP-90C...has more value.

plus..u can also put the fan on the XP120 in a suck out position with a difference of only 1c in temps...im not too sure....but i dont think u can do that on the XP-90C. that whole suck out thing was one of the selling points of the XP-120 as its the only cooler (at the time) that can do that

last time when i was using the FFB got full blast la...but i made a 12v/5v switch for it oso...

so when i go out i put it full blast...when i come home i reduce the voltage to make it silent.

not not using anymore... using Vizo 120mm fan now

anyway...i am curious as to how 2*120mm Delta FFB affects the temps with the GeminII

hows about switching the rear fan to intake? itll supply the hsf with fresh cool air.

then the top 2 will help to exhaust the hot air out.

turbulence? dont know if it will or wont....

but i dont think so.....i think the flow is just nice. especially since hot air rises. hence the reason i asked u to try switching the rear fan and not the top 2 (which you could also try by the way... top 2 intake rear exhaust)

are u comparing the temps in the 690 with an open or closed side panel?

if ur comparing closed vs open.... then of course open is better.
