I just bought a BIX II for the cheap price and not wanting to have to build another fiberglass shroud for my heatercore when changing cases. Does anyone have any experience using one with low cfm fans that push about 30-40 cfm. If not no big deal im just tryin to cut down on noise bit if possible. The heatload it will be taking is a amd64 3000+ and a radeon 9800.
 
to maximize performance and minimize noise, get some 38mm thicks fans, and undervolt them to 7v

that way they'll be dead silent, but have more air pressure than a 25mm thick fan so that in the end, you'll be pulling more air through the radiator
 
Thanks. Is here any place that has a decent selection of the thicker fans? Ive only seem them a few times before and cant remember where.
