 DarkLogixPremium join:2008-10-23 Baytown, TX kudos:3 2 edits | [Cooling] H70 soon to be installed so I've recived the 2 120mm fans I orderd thermaltake AF0026 to put on my H70
to compair the differance is air pressure that the AF0026's give off can move an empty soda can, the fans the came with the H70 can't
theres obviously an airflow drop when bolted to the radiator but the af0026 can still move the soda can |

 | I still yet to replace my H70 (and case) fans. How's the noise level of the Thermaltake as compared to the Corsair OEM? |

 DarkLogixPremium join:2008-10-23 Baytown, TX kudos:3 | I haven't installed it yet but compairing the sound when they were sitting on my desk the thermaltake are louder but they do come with a small controller so you could turn them down a little (I won't)
its not very loud but I'd say theres more of a humming sound and you hear almost nothing with the corsair
I've now replaced my old thermaltake icage fans with the same model (3 120's on the front of the case) and I can hear them but it kinda blends in with my router sound so I don't mind
I think I'll install the H70 this weekend (just holding off due to all the trouble I'll have to go through to remove the mobo to install the H70) |

 DarkLogixPremium join:2008-10-23 Baytown, TX kudos:3 | well the h70 is in and it cooling much better than the stock cooler now to wait on the thermal compount to cure and see the temps then
at full load running ycruncher it didn't go over 50c where as the stock cooler was getting much hotter and thats before the arctic silver 5 has had a chance to set in |

Thanks -- ---Barney |

 DarkLogixPremium join:2008-10-23 Baytown, TX kudos:3 | idle has been about 34-35c full load (ycruncher doing 4billion places all in ram) hits it to about the low 50's
I'll run it again to verify though I had to replace the on eI had due to the pump acting up and not cooling but the replacement has been great
also as I noticed one of the other temps that the hardware monitor was showing had risen I've added a HyperX ram cooler because the ram doesn't have the air coming off the cpu anymore |

I've got an i7 920 and I see the same kinds of temps using a thermalright 120UE with a panaflo 120 x 38mm fan.. -- ---Barney |
