I'm planning an upgrade for my computer and I want to mount a full size radiator in the top. However the standard 25mm fans will collide by a few millimetres on the top of the motherboard chipset. I know there are thin fans out there, but how many are optimised for static pressure and which ones are the best for mounting to a radiator

I am good at computer

there are none that fit that criteria. usually the skinny fans are fast fans to make up

for the loss in thickness. if you are indeed short in space, can you decrease the rad

thickness or offset the radiator for better clearance?

i think the gelid slim fans have the most static pressure out of the slim fans (there is also a 120x120x20mm yate loon fan but i can't find the static pressure of it)

But like airdeano said, you won't get alot of static pressure out of them compared to a 25mm one.
