Go to solution Solved by C0LL0SS0S,

Well if you need straight air flow like intakes for a case you get AF

For radiators or heatsinks where the air has to get through something get SP

Regular, run of the mill airflow, with no restrictions = AF

Airflow with restrictions like, radiators, heatsinks, or components very close to the fan, like a hard drive cage = SP
