[hentaiboi_]

i have a couple of questions here about that wicked cooler...

if you have a corsair dominator aiflow fan does it fit?

is it better than the tuniq tower 120?

will it fit on a board which has large heatsinks for mosfet example is: maximus 2 formula

what are the best fans to go with it?

does it fit on an antec 900?

final question: is the IFX better than liquid cooling?

1. No. You would have to get rid of the dominator fans to make it fit.
2. No. At best, it is comparable to the Tuniq 120.
3. That all depends on each particular board. On a Maximus 2 it should fit, but it is a tight fit.
4. Best fans are those that have higher cfm ratings and good static pressure. Answers will vary on this. It's up to you. Since the IFX is a 140MM sized unit, your 140MM fan choices will be limited, as well.
5. I do not know, but I believe it will, according to measurement specs.
6. It is better than cheap liquid cooling, but then again, even most stock coolers beat cheap water cooling nowadays. A good liquid cooling setup will beat it easily, by a large (Relative term) margin, especially on loaded temps.
6. No. Both of those are better coolers, and smaller, too.
