Xp 120 Heatsink

[yatstv]

can someone tell me the best 120mm fan out there, dont care bout cost or noise, the higher the CFM the better, i want lowest temps with air as possible.

unless someone knows a better cooler that will fit 939 socket.

i have a 3500 winnie 939 + neo 2 platinum board. i know bnout the 120 and the caps. so any help mucho appreciated.

 

so, xp120 + powerful fan? or another cooler?

i am useing the 120 on my neo2 with a panflow ultra seems like overkill , together they were $110 cdn

I,d recommend the thermaltake 120mm smart fan, it pushes close to 100 cfm and looks good plus all the gadgetery of the smart fan (for a small price at this store)

Of course there's always the tornado <_< but you'll be sorry

I thought the Xp-120 isnt compatible with the MSI PLAT Neo2 ?

120mm Delta is the King .. pushes more than 100 cfm of air if you get the right model..

I hear that delta fans are good for that heat sink.

you could make a duct and get one-o-dem 150mm beasts

I'll be trying a sunon 108cfm beast tonight .

gona kill all the roumers of the xp-120 not fitting on the neo2 right now

 

 

i also have a diff hsf on the n/b and ram sinks on just about everything i could think of

 

 

dont worry about space as u can see from the pic i have aboue a mm at the bottom and about 1/2 a mm between the hsf and the ram , buy the way u can use all the ram slots as long as u install the ram first . and theres about a inch from the rear fans . so u could say it is snug .

So the XP-120 will fit fine on a Neo2 platinum then? I'm going to order one if it does.

i use a Panaflo 120mm x 38mm FBA12G12M1A as a rear case fan (86.5cfm @ 35.5dB... there are a couple of high airflow models up from that one, they are absolute beasts and shift 103.8cfm @ 41.5dB (FBA12G12H1A), and 114cfm at 45.5dB (FBA12G12U1A) the decibel rating is not as loud in practice as it's quite a low frequency drone that the ear is not as sensitive to...

 

they'd be ideal for an xp-120 imo... with a fan controller i can bring mine down to 1000rpm and it's pretty much inaudible, at full speed it makes a nice gust of wind

the 1 u see in my pic is a panflow ultra
