1) will it be effective?
Not very 2) will it generate much cooling? Dont think so 3) is there any different? no different. i would suggest u to get an air duct instead,focus the air to a particular area. |

Pointless.. if the 120mm doesnt pull much CFM, the 80mms wont make any difference. If vice versa, same case (strong 120mm, weak 80mms)
My usual layout on air cooling. ![]() If you dont mind a bit of noise, get one of AllnGap's monster 120mm. Airflow goes all the way to the back of your case... unless if youre using CM Cosmos This post has been edited by Acey: Jul 20 2008, 01:37 AM |

Aftermarket fans are mostly crap.. yes they glow brilliantly, but their main purpose is not carried out at all.

Why not just fix 2 120mm fans? susah susah mod another 2 80mm for nothing.

i think you should concentrate more on the pull factor. Stronger pull will result in better cooling. The intake can be moderate. If your intake is stronger than your pull, turbulence would occur and cause more heat trapped inside the case..

120mm fans generally are quieter for whatever performance level you can achieve for 80mms, so consider the noise factor.
