anyone done a push-pull mod for this cooler?

i did some routing with some of my extra uv cable sleeves and managed to hold 2 fans together on the cooler while being quite sturdy still.

maybe during the weekend i will re-do that will cable ties, but i think there should be a better way to do it. if anyone knows how, pls share, thanks.

later i go home i show, but i need cable ties to do it properly. another thing is i placed a fan grill in between the exhaust/pull fan and the cooler coz the fins on the other side were not flat making it possible for the fan blade to hit the fins.

another thing is that u have to tie it hard. but so far, i think the concept is plausible, should work.

p/s: my ccf grabbed from mr handsome tgairborne

actually, i used a fan grill to be placed in between the surface that is not flat and the fan. this will prevent the fan blades from hitting the cooler's fins. and to make the the fan face straightly to the back of the casing, i just used cables to pull it towards the other fan from all 4 screw holes.

haha, i didnt cut later. dun like destroying my stuff.

well, based on the reviews i saw, having the fan on lowest setting would be enough edi, and turning it up full speed doesnt make that much of a difference. nevertheless, i will be using the fans with a fan controller so i can pump up the speed when gaming (since gaming would be loud anyway)

will be using fan controller. the delta i am using is quite similar specs to the the stock fan that comes wtih CCF, just that the delta's rpm is higher, cfm is almost same. instead will be using the stock fan as my casing intake since my drives get quite hot.

[attachmentid=688566][attachmentid=688567]
[attachmentid=688568][attachmentid=688569]
[attachmentid=688571]

doesnt look really neat so im gonna redo it, want some ideas on how to improve it. and the sturdiness of the 2nd fan is just about same as the first fan being held by metal clips so its good enough to hold. anyway, this is just a proof of concept, anyone else who has done something similar, pls share, thx.

oh, no results yet. i dun have mobo to test, maybe during the weekend. think i will try with stock fan first, then only try 2 deltas. later i post results.

urs is a quad core cpu?

mine idles from 29-33 (mostly around 30 like that) and full load (with orthos running, not prime) is around 40something. cant remember already. later when i have time ill add some proper temps and overclock a bit too. hoping to do 3ghz with my 3600+.

compared to my previous blueorb fx and stock cooler which is quite similar with idle of around 38. and load (oc-ed with +0.1v) of 56-60 on orthos.

btw, i din do my push-pull config yet coz i really dont have the mood to take out the cooler again coz its so damn hard to push in.

EDIT : im asking coz i cant see the pic u posted.
