I've lived with a Tornado for.. a good year and a half now.. i sleep with it on everynight.. but.. now that i'm getting this new power suppy (antec truecontrol 550W) I kinda wanna push my overclocking limits to the max..... dont want watercooling.... so aircooling is about it...and i want maximum airflow and that obviously comes from a 120mm...
so.. looking for the same db (as the 80mm Tornado) 120mm fan.. I stumbled across the 190CFM, 56DB Delta 120mm.... now.. how well would this work if i strapped a 120 > 80mm adaptor on my AX-7, and then ran the delta off of it?... how much backpressure would it cause..? and.. would the end result be worth the 30-35$ upgrade? thanx .. also weight issues too.. i know the AX-7 isn't exactly as large as its bigger brothers in the SLK series.. but its still a massive heatsink.. and to strap that vaccume cleaner on it would add more weight.. especially an inch out further... think it'd hold or would it be dangerous? portability is also a concern I'm a LANer
