Is dual fans effective

[masterkickass7]

I have a 2 120mm fans on my cryorig h7 is the 2nd fan even helping

You can unplug it and find out?

[Elerek]

find out. Take the second fan off and watch yours temps climb  Science

Unless your 6700k is heavily overclocked it's probably not doing much.

i'll keep the 2nd fan on like my 18c idle temp

So yeah unless your room is well under 60F, that's not happening.

How cold is it in your home? Because that's about 60-ish degrees Fahrenheit

That's my kind of house! Personally, my A/C is on 64-68 degrees.

Even then the CPU would be hotter than that because of operating temperature

Yeah but even the best water coolers are still a couple degrees above ambient. And you can never go below.

I didn't know that... /s

 

I was just commenting on the "igloo" part of the quote.

It's more for the OP.

How cold is your house, mate?

My house actually is at 66F right now. I can't stand the Florida heat.

I think your motherboard may be reporting temperatures wrong. Or HWMonitor (or whatever it is you're using) is miscalculating.

I know. Coupling that with the temps that the hardware monitor is reporting, it doesn't make any sense. Because physics.

if you put two outboard motors on a boat, one in front of the other, does the boat go faster?

if you have a case fan sitting right next to the cpu cooler it actually makes it perform worse. heres an old article on fan stacking with some interesting comments http://www.overclockers.com/fan-stacking-myth-vs-reality/

based on this, my own experiments with my cooler master z600, and push pull results observed online; i dont see much benefit to cpu coolers with 2 fans
