Kempez, I use SpeedFan also. It gets a little nervous around my nVidia though, dunno why.

What dya mean nervous mate?

Weird!!

That's ok Frag - you tried. If the postage would have been cheaper then I'd have bought it - thought I'd let you know that.

OK - on topic....

Here is one a selection of fans I was thinking about for the XP-120 or whatever its called (already ordered it):

Nice and quiet:

Nervous? Speedfan Semi-Locks up sometimes when launching it during the detection of the nVidia sensors.

Weird - mine fine - maybe a re-install?

Any advice/opinions on the fans?

Yeah that looks like a pretty decent list... Now that you made me think about it I still need to get on the horn to Jab-Tech and order up my 120mm fan filters for my rad fans. I accidentally ordered 3 80mm ones on my last order with em *doh*. I can tell it's gonna be a bitch to clean out the fins of that rad if they get dusty so I oughtta prevent that from happening as much as I possibly can.
 
Sorry to hijack your thread kempez815

:offtopic: Hey Nick, didn't the /NONVIDIAI2C tag work for you? You said it did before, when I gave it to you.

Nice list of goodies there kempez815, just watch those dust filters and clean them regularly with a damp cloth, they do a really great job.

I will do.....I've been thinking about it for ages and I just thought - why the feck not?

I'm sure as long as I get it all up and running smooth, i'll be posting all temperature changes!

There's no question ur temps will go down with the Silencer. I hear they're fuckin awesome... I'm just curious to see HOW awesome they really are :D

I've heard reports of up to 10degC. Not bad. I figured it would help my general case temps as well....pushing hot air OUT of the case, rather than just circulating it around!!

Also the new blowhole will help to get some cold air in and also increase the pressure inside the case so as not to let too much dust in. The 2 x 120mm fans (1 x case fan and 1 x PSU fan) should be enough to get the hot air out!! :D

Yup your new cooling setup is going to definately keep things a lot cooler inside the case :)
