Extra Fan for Hyper TX3 - Is it worth it ???

[nikhilpoddar]

hi guys,

 

i just bought myself hyper tx3. as of now, there is only one fan installed with it. i wanted to know will it make any difference if i add another 92mm fan to the heatsink in a push-pull config. I have phenom II 940 and the current readings are idling at 38c and load:56c (it's much better than my stock hsf coz then readings were idle: 45c and load: 71c)

 

another query is i don't know how to setup the direction of the fans. Hyper TX3 only allows the fan to blow air towards North or South in AMD system. My power supply is at the top. So please tell me in which direction should the fan blow : north or south ??

Unless you're going to overclock higher, then you're fine with those temps and don't need another fan.

 

Use up or down, or front or back of case. Directions don't help, but we know what you mean, still. Up is slightly better, it's either going to blow towards your PSU or your Video Card, but your PSU will be pushing warm air out, anyways.
