So i got my Antec last night, installed it and am sp far fairly thrilled.
Keeping a 2500k @ 4,7 GHZ, 1,3 volt fairly cool on prime at around 75C.

However this is only with the antec stock fan pulling air out from the backfan "slot".

My CoolerMaster Case (It's a shitty elite 310) - already has a 120 MM fan.
Id like to mount that on end of the rad, for a push/pull config.


My question is simple, how the *** do i do that?
The Antec came with some long screws that mounted the rad (with the fan inbetween) to the case itself.

I assume ill need the same screws to mount the extra fan to the rad.


CAn i get em at a hardware store ? My local hardware geek specialists?
Or should i buy some Scythe Mugen(or other ) to get a new fan with the screws included (i assume).


Fairly simple stupid question but, before i go buy loose figured it wouldn't hurt to ask 😛

 


Also just to be sure, since i'm starting ot second guess myself.

Currently this is how it's setup - With Case being to the left:

Fan - Rad
< - I.

Aka it's taking air out from the case/fan.

For push pull it should be

Fan - Rad - Fan
< - I - <.

Correct?


 
seeing as i'm in EU.
It seems unlikely, atleast not used to that.

Id prefer to buy them somewhere today, rather than wait 😀

But ill try :)


 
1) Mount existing fan in the rear with the long screws , directly into the radiator, then put the other fan in fron of the other sidfe of the (rad) and mout it with long screws as well. make sur eboth fans are facing the correct direction.
