Fans for h70

[Rich_]

What fans do you reccomend for the H70. would be getting 2 fans, would like to keep the price around ~20$.

People use single fans with good effect on 60mm thick rads so it is fairly obvious that youd only need one to get the job done on the 27mm Corsair, still..your choice.

Twinpack Corsair SP120 Quiet edition

The Corsair SPs are a good choice.
Also look at noctuas if you can afford them, or Scythe GTs, Bitfenix Spectre Pros and Silverstone Air Penetrators. All of those will perform fine.

its 48mm not 27mm, either way, would 2 fans on that provide significant improvement? >1~ degree?

My bad - wrote that dead tired after a sleepless night..
To be honest I couldnt say for sure as I have no experience with the H70.
However It is noteworthy that it came with 2 fans in the box from Corsair.

btw - Theres also a twinkit of Corsair SP120 Performance edition.

thanks, i went with the core edition so no fans were included ordered xigmatech fan to put on the push, while my current rear exhaust zalman fan will act as the pull, it's a good fan, i'll see how the xigmatech works, hear nothing but praise for them being silent and good air flow, if it turns out to be a good fan i'll replace the current generic intakes and upper exhaust with them. 9 bucks sounds too good to be true though.

Let us know how that works for u.
Read some more reviews - these got approx 1,5 - 2 degrees Celsius less with push/pull vs single fan.

For single fan, Pull got a fraction better result than Push.
