Default Fans... To Push Pull or not to Push Pull? TITQ



OK... I am starting my weekend project nick knack purchasing....

I am getting these to try (Unless some here has and they did not work as well as a pair of 655's ).....

One of these....



A Pair of these.....


Now... As I am doing this I plan to re-do the front end again on my MM case so the res mounts correctly in its new home. That brought a few questions to mind... Which one is better?

A..... Can I run 120x25 (EX Fans) as Shrouds and go like this... Case-RAD-Shrouds-Fan Fan = 120x25 110cfm
A-1.... Same but with Kaze 3000's... Hate the noise...

B.... Case-FAN-RAD-FAN all 120x25's @ 110CFM (this is how it is now)

C.... Case-FAN-RAD-Shroud-FAN... All 120x25 @ 110 cfm's...

I am running a BIX 360 on just the CPU and my temps stay @ 70c now with my 24/7 4.00 clock... Makes no difference what I set the fan speed to... Temps stay the same from 1/2 power to all on... Off = death of course

Thanks folks!!!

P.S. I looked for the Martin's test of this thought process, did not find it yet... still looking... & I have posted this question elsewhere....
