just a bonus question.

thought of buying nzxt fan controller. but because of my front 360 rad, i cant put a 5.25" controller in my case.

only fan controller i found was this, that can stay outside the case.

I wouldn't say temps compared to the Corsair 120's I was using but now I can hear my D5 Vario over the Vardar's and that is set to 2 so I have a very quiet rig

Dont bother with changing the fans over unless you dont mind wasting money. 75c is perfectly fine for 24/7 use anyways.

As for the fan controller. Its a decent option, however it can be be a PITA to route the cables around etc.

Prob betrer off with something like a splitter instead.

hi all.

i found out why my temps were so high. :/ when i re-mounted the cpu block i set the nickel block with the fine long fins vertical and not horisontal. a big noob mistake. hehehe.

now i get max 66 C on temps. that a good thing. instead of 75 C.

but i still think im gonna update my fans for the vadar f4's i talked to the danish wc company and told them about my fans. and also they say like u guys said. there are better fans out there instead of the ones i have now.

thx anyway for all your posts.

Nice to know. As advised before however, unless you have a lot of dough laying around there is little reason to change the fans over.
