Arctic Liquid Freezer II 240 Fan RGB change

bubuie

Guys, greetings, hope you all are doing well.

 

Got a question, I know that Fans included with the Arctic liquid freezer II is good ones, but if I want to change them to RGB ones, could you please recommend which I should go with ? will it cause a big difference if I change the stock coolers?

 

As well as, I have AIO install on front side of the case, where fans are intake, would it make difference if I add some of the fans on the radiator from inside? so radiator will have fans from both side?

1)

What is your budget for fans. I know its a silly question, but fans can range from $5-$200.

 

2)

yes, having fans on both sides of the rad will help a bit, but probably only ~3-5 degrees. But make sure you mount the fans correctly so they dont compete against each other. In a Push-Pull configuration is the best option.

 

What CPU are you using?

Thanks for the info.

 

Those are some pretty good fans. If they are going to be radiator fans, the best options would be some static pressure fans. I personally use some for ARCTIC. They do get pretty pricy, I think that they were $15-$20 for only one fan.

They do have cheaper versions of the same product, but these look a but better and have vibration pads.

I was thinking buying those and changing them instead of the Fans that I have on arctic liquid freezer II and put, arctic ones on the back side of the radiator, and one spare from coolermaster one as exhaust one on back of the PC. Atm I have Deepcool dmesh 55 4F one Fan as an exhausts , two on top and one on back side of the case

The Halo have another ring of RGB around the fan blades. (I think)
