Push/pull with different fans

Hi,

I need some advice on setting up a p/p config with the Alphacool Monsta. I'm planning on installing TT Riing 12 fans for pushing and some other (possibly Corsair ML120) for pulling. The problem is with keeping the airflow consistent. As I understand, both need to be set to the same CFM, and CFM scales linearly with RPM. Is this (approximately) true? Can I simply assume linear relation and tune the pull RPM to match the push CFM and the air will flow fine without stressing the fans?

i would only use the same fans running from the same splitter for a push pull config if i was doing watercooling, its hard to match the exact same CFM with mismatched fans

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
