NB eLoop vs Cougar

Go to solution Solved by Lays,

I would like to know which of these fans would be best for radiators configuration. I narrowed it down to these two due to aesthetics and performance. 

 

eLoop

 

Cougar 

 

I will have x3 360mm rads and x2 140mm intake and x2 120mm intake. 

 

If anyone else that can find a white/orange fan that has similar performance, I'd gladly use them! 

 

 

here you go buddy, this should give you a decent comparison

Awesome thank you so much!! 

 

 

No problem, I believe sometimes NB E loops have issues being mounted in pull, something about the blades rubbing against the radiator.

 

You may have to use a rubber spacer or something if you do that, like a small washer maybe.
