I have a red and black theme and would like to replace the two fans on the Kraken X61. Will the Corsair AF140 fans get the job done, or I am gonna need SP fans in order to get decent performance?
 
Solution
The corsair AF fans are meant for case fans and their prefixes indicate AirFlow. SP or Static Pressure fans are your friends when you're dealing with high density fin arrays or tightly packed fins on a heatsink. I would suggest looking into Swiftech's Helix, EK Vardar and Nosieblokcer E-Loop fans for your AIO radiator and if you want color you could paint them over as per instructions set on MNPCTech's Youtube channel by Bill Owen or you could go with Bitfenix's Spectre pro's.
