im going to be getting one of these bad boys for my system, and thermalright recommend a panaflo 120mm fan. Does any one know why they recommend this fan. I took the stats of that fan (ie air flow and wattage) and im thinking about exceeding the panaflo fan I dont think that will do anything. is it possible that there can be too much air movement on a Heatsink? N E ways this is the fan im looking at

Panaflow makes some of the BEST fans, they are quiet, and move a lot of air

103 cfm is outstanding, and if it's built as well as Silverstone cases....you can't go wrong

i ve heard nothing but good things about the performance of that heatsink......BUT......the installation can be a bit hairy...and fitting it on your mobo is kinda luck of the draw.......

imo...i would go with the sp-97 instead.....

*MOVED* Please post in the appropriate sections!

The panaflo fans are great they move alot of air and are relatively quiet. And they are quality fan, so it should last a good long time.
