which shop at lowyat can get cooler master 92mm fan for my hyper tx3? want to use dual fans..

with fans mounted on top, ur only choice are heatsinks with height less than 150mm. and u have to take into consideration about the ram clearance. i would recommend coolermaster geminII series.

u can try Viewnet, last i saw they have lots of fans

done a little test regarding the effect of horizontal/vertical arrangement and with/without rear fan
Vertical Mount: Horizontal Mount:

TEST SYSTEM:
Intel Xeon E3-1230v2 (max freq should be 3.5Ghz but Prime95 only using up to 2.9Ghz)
Gigabyte GA-Z77x-D3H
Kingston Value Ram 2x4GB 1600Mhz (Low Profile)
MSI R7850 PE
Thermalright Venomous-X + 2 Xigmatek XAF-F1255
Cooler Master GX550
Corsair Carbide 300r + 2 Bitfenix Specter Pro (TOP) + 2 Bitfenix Spectre Pro (FRONT) + 1 Corsair Stock (REAR)

TEST ENVIRONMENT:
Closed room with ceiling fan + aircond @ 17°C.
RealTemp 3.70 to record min/max temperature.
CoreTemp to record min/max temperature.

METHOD:
1. Start up system;
2. Idle for 10min, take idle temp;
3. Run IntelBurnTest test for 10times @ Very High, take load temp.

RESULT:
Due to my mistake, my CPU has been seriously downclocked. I will post up new test results with properly working CPU soon...

ah, is it funny to say that I accidentally destroyed mah old lga 775 stock cooler when i reapply mah new TIM?

looks like i have to buy a new cooler for dah mister 775, any good cheapo recommendation? i am looking forward to get a passive cooler without fan
i promise i wont spend more than 50 on the cooler but noctua nh l9i is tempting me

CM Hyper TX3 Evo now RM60 only

comes with LGA775, LGA1155, LGA1366 and AMD brackets too

just to let you know I did some research and found out something

recently we saw suddent drop of coolermaster hyper 212 evo price from 119 to rm109

be informed that previous RM119 is with 2000rmp fan

and

new price RM109 is with 1600rpm fan ---------new version called EU VERSION!!!!!
can check here for details

>> sneaky way to cheat people. be warned and beware. because the performance is not the same.

for sure... it's been around for a long time but still on par with the top all-in-one liquid cooling solution, make sure the mounting on the mobo is firmly secured because it is a heavy cooler

previously i use CM Hyper 101.. noisy. do consider change to H60i or H80i . i change mine to H80i to fit inside bitfenix prodigy case.. cool & silent ~! lotsa remaining space for airflow.

I heard around many people prefer Arctic Cooling PWM fans due to its price and performance.

Now I am thinking to put more fans on my CM 690 advance (top part) with some good performance fans with blue LED to partially light up the super dark chassis.

Is it a waste to put PWM fans for chassis exhaust?
Anyone knows who is selling PWM (tiny 4pins) splitter?

Any recommendations and reviews for fans with LED?
1.) Aerocool Shark fans
2.) Bitfenix Spectre fans
3.) Enermax fans

any suggestion for low noise cooler?
no oc, want low noise and low temp.
hopefully it can goes with my theme, all black. *Interested on dark knight, can it be fanless?*
i heard the range of strew hole of 1150 and 1155 is the same right?

or should i directly upgrade to water cooler?

u can customize the fan splitter yourself from those shop selling small electronics, or u can take a run around lowyat

aerocool shark is powerful but their sleeve bearing will not last long in the top exhaust position. bitfenix spectre and enermax is suitable for the job.

other options for low noise, low temp would be the noctua heatsinks. silent fan + great heatsink.

mouting hole for 1150, 1155, 1156 are the same.

that type of bearing quality is not good enough? or related to position of the fans are placed which shortens their life? enlighten me pls

both. sleeve bearing are much lower quality than fluid dynamic bearing used by bitfenix or twister bearing used by enermax. sleeve bearing is not recommended to be mounted in horizontal fashion as it will further reduced its lifespan.

Guys.. What's the best cooling fan available? High cfm and low noise.
