Hi,

I'm currently using cooler master Seidon v3 Plus and i'm thinking of changing the cpu fans to a high static pressure of corsair. Will it be worth it? I'm not sure if the XtraFlo of cooler master that comes with the seidon v3 vs the corsair 120mm sp will be worth it to change.

 
Solution
I assume you're talking about the high performance sp120 and not the quiet sp120.
The difference in static pressure is .11 mmh20. That's negligible.
Remember also, that the static pressure quoted is maximum. What manufacturers don't do is provide specs on pressure and air flow at various speeds. To get that S/P on the Corsair you'd be running it at or near the top speed, which might be nosier than your current fans.
The difference in temps, if any, will not be great.

Personally, IMHO, this would be a better option. Lower noise, higher S/P and better airflow.

But that's just my preference.
