H110 worth going push/pull?

Just bought a H110 to replace a H100i is it worth going push/pull would i see much difference? With the two included 140mm fans i,m getting idle temps in the 20s and gaming load (bf4) in the 50s, my H100i was in push/pull and was getting slightly hotter temps and was also a lot louder, really happy with the H110 performance out of the box cooler and quieter:biggrin:

Do some research and get better fans and you will have lower temps and lower noise levels!

I might look at getting 4 AF140 Quiet Edition fans, got 2 of these in the front of my case connected to a fan controller they seem to work ok, would they suit a rad? Not a lot of choice with 140mm fans here in New Zealand only corsair/Noctua/nzxt to choose from, Its spring here and its only going to get hotter..

If you want the Corsair brand 140mm fans, get the "SP" version (either quiet or high performance) when attaching to a radiator. "SP" stands for "Static Pressure" which will help move more air directly through the radiator in a sort of wind tube instead of a wind cone. The "AF" stands for "Air Flow" and is the reverse of the "SP" fans, useful for moving air into or out of a case in a broad area.

 

Also, don't expect miracles with any cooler. The lowest temperatures a cooler can achieve are based on ambient temperatures. The higher the ambient temperatures, the longer it will take for the cooler to do it's work. That said, if the CPU temps are a fair bit higher than ambient, the cooler will work much better. Basically, look for how quickly the temps drop after the CPU reaches idle from full use, and the highest temps the CPU achieves during use. Idle temps actually mean very little in the grand scheme of things, because CPUs are rated at a MUCH higher temp than any possible idle and ambient temp can ever achieve.

Well said! :)

Thanks guys for all the info and support very much appreciated, Can't seem to find any Corsair SP140 fans in my country, mmm looking at the products page Corsair don,t seem to make a SP140 fan? Being a Corsair fanboy:D: i would rather stick with Corsair fans... how would i go about purchasing two more 140mm fans the same as the two that come with the H110?

Thanks for pointing that out. I was bordering on doing the same thing, and asking how his Cougar stock was doing, as he pushes those fans in several threads.

Your Mom wants you to quit using "Lol", especially on her computer.

 

Hey another ignorant user. Have some respect. This forum is for helping people not to make childish comments. Sound like a little kid.

 

Havent been around as much lately but im sure wytnyt knows ive been in and out of the forums quite a bit n always try to help people out. N have helped quite a few people. For the most part its a good bunch around here and belittlement is quite frowned upon.

ive seen you post and always in a positive manner,unlike myself at times and of course good help is always appreciated.

 

 

 

You guys are really hilarious! Argumentative, too! Be grown up then and stop belittling people who know what they are talking about.

 

this post is exactly what were referring to in many of your posts.

perhaps you do know about cougar fans but dont shove it down peoples throats

corsair tolerates alot and one such example is a reference to many products would have been *** out last year but now we can freely express ourselves regarding competitive products

but

smartazzes is still looked down on as evidenced by many of your posts

why not play nice?

like the lady of the evening has said

''everybody like a 'lil azz''...''but nobody likes a smartazz'';):

its quite obvious your purposely treading a fine line with insults and ridicule and theres really no need for it

 

mods do have their limits
