I have my h110 set up in "pull" with 2 corsair af 140mm fans to exhaust air from the rad. Would there be any tangible difference throwing on sp quiet edition fans in front to push air as well?

 

id love to see/hear some real world differences or experiences

Pull, Its not any less efficient as long as you use decent fans and its also easier to clean.

My System Specs: (Short list) i7 4770k, GTX 780, many SSD's, a 2 TB HDD(deceased :( ), Corsair 650D. Full list: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/kchriz6097/saved/8dh7YJ

Upgrade Plan: Acquire some Black Noctuas then add 16 or 32GB of 2133MHz memory

You will get negligible differences between push and pull. and Push/pull is really only going to make a real difference once you get to a 60mm+ thick rad. Your 30mm rad does not require it and wont have enough benefit to offset the cost and inconvenience in your case.

well first thing would be to get proper fans as the AF140 is not even close to any

efficient fan for a radiator, especially a fin array as dense as the H110.

Corsair SP fans are 120mm and will not fit your radiator without adapters.

 

so wondering if push/pull would benefit you with those same fans would be no.

 

either use the OE stock fans or look to some optimized fans for your radiator.

Ive heard positive feedback on noctua's nf-a14 so ill probably look into those because of how silent and well performing they are

they are pretty good, the specs are fair, but the color scheme is off-putting to some.

the rosewill hyperborea is black frame and deep static pressure with 16dbA 12v.
