Case Fans

[arges86]

I just installed a 120mm 110 cfm case fan (old one was about 60 cfm) i got about a 5-7ish degrees C decrease in load temp on my cpu
i was wondering, would i see a temp loss if i replaced my back fan, w/ another 110 cfm fan? or would i just create more noise?

thanx for any advice

mayve yess, but not as much as you just seem to have.

maybe a CPU cooler would be better

Yes, but not a lot more. Your case is full of cooler air now, your CPU thanks you. Pulling more out would help keep good flow though.

Still, good medium fans and a better CPU HS would do the same and be lots quieter methinks. Depends on the case, ambient temps, fans, wiring in the case etc etc.

you should get lower temp if all da fan is replaced to the same model because the fan will be equal so no back or front pressure,it will also reduce in noise and strss on the fan motor.

also by increase airflow inside the case not only the CPU temp will drop, all the other component will also benefit such as ram and mobo and HDD.

my case has a top, side and back fan. I've already replaced the side, but u think i should replace them all w/ the same fan?
The fan was cheap, 8 bucks so getting another one isn't an ussue
