I wanna put some additional fans on a rad and I was wondering is it available at a local hardware store?

if so what size?

 

Also I was thinking of using something like like Scythe's Kaze Jyuni Slim fans what do I use to mount those on rads? :P

 

Also I was thinking of using the duct tape mod cause the rad is not really mounted anywhere in the case (GD-07) I just placed the rad where the 2 vertical 5.25 bays are located in pull with a Corsair SP fan. 

 

I was thinking (if it still fits) to get an AF fan to pull and set the sp to push. :D

Most rads are threaded for M3 screws. What rad do you want to attach the fans to?

It's a cooler master Siedon 120V.

I'm kinda worried bout my temps cause it's averaging 45 degrees on IDLE. I mean I know it's a 6 core processor but it shouldn't be that high.

Do you suggest putting it on push rather than pull?

Use the screws that come with the new fans.

Those screw are for the case not for rads.

I'm exclusively using corsair SP and AF fans. :D
