crazy idea with a 4000rpm fan

[AdamLeyshon]

yeah but oh god the noise on those deltas

I have two in my server and when that's under full load it hovers! lol

EDIT: I have a theory that if i put 4 deltas in it, it might implode and create a blackhole, anyone care to test?

just wondering which lga775 heatsink is the best. is it a vendetta 2, a coolermaster v8 or a TRUE? or other?

 

[Freak]

I havent heard much about the v8.

But I would say True.

The only thing is that you dont get a fan. So for a couple of degrees I went for the Noctua

 

[j.woody]

what about a Titan Fenrir? are they any good?

Take a look at that page. Comparisons of temps.

ill get the baram then with a silverstone fan

You might want to do a bit more looking round as that is just one review site and could be biased.

Look at other sites. Herer is their comparisions for heat or noise based.

If you want the best then look round at each of those and see where other people place them.

I would also look at the OC3D reviews as they are honest....

Frostytech reviews are only good for measurements such as clearance, the rest is balls.

They dont use a standard fan for testing all coolers, this means a crap cooler with a delta could top their table easily.

Proper procedure should mean a standard 80/90/120mm fan and any proprietary fans stay stock.

so which lga775 cooler is the best?

Prolimatech Megahalems seems to be pretty good

but

i am now goin to either get an ocz vendetta 2 or a v8 coolermaster.

which one is better?

If your willing to lap, then the T.R.U.E by Thermalright is top knotch, as is the prolimatch megahalems.

The OCZ vendetta 2 underwhelmed me tbh, and the V8 is not really worth the money compared to a T.R.U.E.

i have a small question, what is a negative flow (or something like that)? because i have read lots of reviews on about that.

OMG this is my 100th post!!

 

[Jeddy]

Are you referring to negative pressure/positive pressure?

Positive pressure is when you have more air going into the case that is being exhausted- it keeps dust down by forcing air outwards through any grills and gaps- It is not so good for temps (at most 2-3c difference) as hot air can get trapped.

Negative pressure is when you have more air going out of the case than is going in- this attracts dust through any grills or holes without dust filters, but tends to be more efficient at removing hot pockets.

grats on 100 posts .
