Fan for a GPU radiator

[Caliph]

Hello,

 

Im planning to buy Powercolor R9 390X Devil and im wondering about the rad fan.

 

Will the Corsair SP120 Quiet at 1450rpm max be enough or should i go for Performance edition at 2350 rpm?

 

And which is better for push or pull?

 

Or should i get 2 quiet ones and go for push-pull?

The stock fine should be fine. If its a bit loud, replace it with a EKWB Vardars, Be Quiet! Shadow Wings 2, Or whatever Noctua's 120mm rad fans are

Those Corsair fans will suffice. They will be good for a radiator as they are pressure optimised.

Honestly, I would doubt it will overclock to the point of needing extra cooling. I'd use the quiet fan. I'd be shocked if you needed push-pull.

Just get one quiet fan and don't sweat about push or pull, go with whichever looks nicer.

Corsair SP 120 quiet or the Noctua Industrial NF-F12 2000RPM ?

Noctua for performance, Corsair for looks.

Noctua for performance, Corsair for looks.

Well, industrial series aint that bad looking as others, so noctua is the way to go when we talk about performance/noise ratio?

Usually. I have Corsair SP quiets on the outside of my rig and don't hear them. So my advice is get what looks good to you and is cheaper. The Corsair LED fans are noisy though.
