Which fan for push/pull configuration

[JamesH789]

Hi, i have the cooler master Hyper 212 EVO (120mm) heatsink and have i am thinking about setting up a push/pull configuration.
I have decided to use either:
Noctua NF-F12PWM
or
NF-P12 PWM
I was wondering which fan would be best, i be purchasing two.
Also do i connect my 2nd fan to a different fan socket or somehow combine both fans and plug them into the cpu fan header?
Thanks

Here's a list of fans tested on a Thermalright Archon

Most of today's enthusiast or gaming MoBos have two CPU headers. If not on your MoBo, many aftermarket coolers come with cable splitters....option 3 , buy one from frozencpu.com

A push pull configuration on the EVO will not help the cooling performance.

first both fans should be the exact same!! You should use the
NF-F12 pwm as it has the higher static pressure which is what
you need for heatsinks and radiators. Connect both to the cpufan
using the splitter that is already included with noctua fan.
