Scythe 120x25mm SlipStream SY1225SL12SH (1,900 rpm, 110 cfm, 37 dBA)

shinjite, I'm currently using a unit of the suggested fan on the MCR-220. But since I'm not sure how high is the static-pressure it generates, so I dare not say this fan is a good fan to be attached on the radiator.

This fan is a gd fan when Ur talking bout airflow over noise rate.

If you want a cheap and good solution, Arctic F12 is a good choice. It's on Fluid Dynamic (FDB) bearing, high static pressure and silent. I had 3 of them on my MCR-320, gives about the same temp as I'm running on Typhoons but maybe 1-2C lesser at times. However price wise, it's cheaper by 1 fold.

If you want a high class fan that is reputable and recommended everywhere then the Scythe Gentle Typhoon/S-Flex is your option. To be honest, the Tribework really isn't worth the price (unless you have too much money)

There's a reason why I only sell certain products because I do my research, test it out and make sure it's a value for money product. When we buy/sell something, we don't just grab whatever is expensive because expensive things doesn't necessarily means it's always worth it in terms of value VS performance.

depends on d rad as well dude .
if u want to pair up with low FPI rad, most fan out there with more than 1500 is capable of doing good job already .
if u want dirt cheap, xigmatek fan oso can .
we are talking significant difference in price but probably 1-2C difference in temp dats it .

I think it would be best for you to buy some radiators and test it out yourself. Perhaps you will understand what I'm talking about If you really want to squeeze that few degrees of temps out of it then sure, spend a bomb to get the best fan in the world to pair with it

of course, pay xtra if u want xtra performance .
its quite general though .

I think you still don't understand the point It's like you buy an i7 920 VS 975, is it worth for you to pay that much of extra? Is the performance/overclocking factor worth it? You're stating the obvious, of course everyone knows if you pay more you will get extra performance so there's no point discussing something like that. What I'm talking about here is the price VS performance factor.

well for me price/performance = yate loon d12sh12
silent operation = scythe gentle typhoon

I kindda believe the Scythe 120x25mm SlipStream SY1225SL12SH (1,900r.p.m.) is capable of genarating 2.3mmH2O of static pressure.

Let assuming 2.3mmH2O, would this be sufficience enuf for radiator having more than 20 f.p.i.?

Besides the Triebwerk Mid Speed, is there any fan tht is capable of pushing 3mmH2O or more while maintaning noise level of below 40dBA?

Is radiator fan still within the topic?

not sure bout the slipstream cause reviews mostly say its not good for radiator .
where did u get the spec for 2.3mmH20 static pressure ?

and iinm, the radiators available now never exceeds 20FPI .
only hwlab black ice gtx is 20fpi .

if u want higher static, get those thick fans 38mm fan..or get a good fan and couple with a shroud, thats if u have the space.
cheap and reliable rad fans are Yate Loon D12SH12 pretty cheap RM35 / 2200rpm. rad selection is important too though.

just got me gentle typhoon. super silent and performance wise -2/3º off idle temp. usually i'll get a lot more performance at load. pretty pricey but worth it

haha of course dude .
its made for rad and heatsink ^^,

Opps, I should have said up to 20 f.p.i. instead of more than.

SO I guess the BI GTX Gen 2 has the highest f.p.i. huh.

Oh ya, bout the 2.3mmH2O, I wasn't not sure, thts y I said "I kindda believe" n "assuming". Not sure whether the given figures frm this Scythe Forum r trustable.

I was wrong with tht assumption.

I juz tested out with my hand at the opposite site on the radiator where fans r attached [I hv 2 different fans attached on the MCR-220, the SlipStream SY1225SL12SH (1,900r.p.m.) and the Delta WFB1212M], the WFB1212M seems has stronger flow than the 1.9k r.p.m. SlipStream SY1225SL12SH.

Now, I'm kindda doubt with the given figure, 2.3mmH2O. Donoe where did he get the info looking at even the product manager doesn't have the info of it.

But if U dismantle both fans frm the radiator, the SlipStream feels like having higher flow.

Perhaps this is all bout static pressure.

Mind to share how high is the static pressure of the mentioned fan in mmH2O or inch/H2O?

well for all i know, slipstream is better for case cooling and gentle typhoon is better for radiator cooling .

yes slipstream has more airflow but it doesnt mean its good for radiator .
for radiator, ignore the CFM and look on the static pressure statistic .

the 38mm version with good static pressure could reach 3.5mmH20 like that .
its very good though .

i somehow think this video has a rough view of static pressure ?
the last fan, silverstone air penetrator is pushing the air nicely concentrated .
something like this laa i think if have good static pressure

3.5mmH2O, impressive. Hoey!!! Don't recommend the more than 100bucks fan la. Imaging the damage using the same fan on 3x120 rads.

Added on June 26, 2010, 12:47 pm35.36CFM and 1.71mmH2O, vat do u think?

great static but not much air pushed but i guess dat's probably because of less RPM .
u would want probably something like 75CFM 2.2-2.5mmH20 .
i recommend yate loon d12sh12 from vladtheimpaler for RM35 each ^^,

How high is the static pressure of the recommended fan?

Added on June 27, 2010, 6:19 pmmonsh, I think there r radiators of more than 20f.p.i., the Koolance CU1020V Radiator is 1 of em, 30f.p.i., designed for high speed fans.

haha yeah well im not so sure, cause i've seen those on the top rated rad only .
anyway, iinm, black ice GT stealth = 30 FPI as well .
