Fan suggestion for pull

[Felrin]

I have an Arctic Liquid Freezer III 360 cooler, I want to make a push pull. How about Thermalright TL-C12C-S as a pull? Or should I get an Arctic P12?

In the real world, it probably won't make any difference at all.

Push pull or between fans?

Between fans.

Any particular reason you want push/pull setup?  Are your temperatures bad?

You probably won't see a huge increase in cooling performance with push/pull over just push or pull.

Its primarily just a way to take up more physical space, possibly cause unwanted turbulence noises and cost money. AIO rads don't really have the fin density to benefit from it. Classic case of marketing winning. More fans = better, right?

Meh, my partner has a corsair 280 AIO and when we slapped a second set of fans on it we did see ~20% better cooling

[Felrin]

I don't know what to do now. 20% difference...

TL-C12s are a tad on the weak side, but they work. I am using their TL-B12's and they are much better. I have not used Arctic fans, so no comment there

 

T30s are little beasts. 120x38s will give you everything you need, including a migraine

I have my doubts unless something else was changed. Would need to have seen the water temp before. 

 

Remember, AIO fans aren't there to cool the CPU, they're there to cool the water.

TL-C12'ler biraz zayıf tarafta ama işe yarıyorlar. TL-B12'lerini kullanıyorum ve çok daha iyiler. Arctic fanları kullanmadım, bu yüzden orada yorum yok

 

T30'lar küçük canavarlardır. 120x38'ler migren dahil ihtiyacınız olan her şeyi size sağlayacaktır

TL 21 euro, Arctic P12 (non ARGB) 30 euro.

lower fan speed,  3c better temps on a AIO 

 

worth it if its Arctic fans u add.. sure

T30s. Good fans, better than Arctic.

 

Expensive.

Unfortunately it is out of stock in my country.

/shrug
Running the fans at the same speed gave lower CPU temps. That's all I wanted and all I needed. Now even on a synthetic load they don't turbo to jet takeoff speed
