Corsair H100i Push/Pull config fan questions

[mgh87]

Hi,

I'm currently in the process of changing my H100i from pull to push/pull. My question is Should i buy 4 of the same fan? Or will the fan speeds, pressures and all that sync up automatically if i have 2 different sets? If they don't will it cause any problems to 2 different sets of fans anyway?

The two different fan types are the stock fans and Corsairs Air Series SP120 LED Red High Static Pressure 120mm Fan Twin Pack.

These do differ quite abit from the stock fans. Hydro Series H80i/H100i SP120L 2700 RPM Replacement PWM Fan

If you're wondering why i don't go for push pull with stock fans Corsair doesn't ship to Australia the only other place i've been able to find stock fan sells them for $55 each and I would like the red led ones to light up the top of my case.

I would stick with similar fans, although you really won't see much benefit with a push/pull versus simply push or pull. You might get a degree or two cooler but with quality fans it's not worth it IMO.
