Okay just wondering about this since I have decided to keep my Slot A athlon,Would I be able to add the new Delta 60MM fans onto my heatsink? (About 51CFM per fan is alot of cooling) :p Just wondering since It would greatly drop my current temps down,CPU Idle-67°F,CPU Full Load-86°F,But if I do decide to switch to the seemingly ever so popular Abit VH62 mobo,I think only one of those delta fans should suffice on a socket heatsink ;) I might do that..Since that Abit board cost less the my slot a board! :eek: :eek: ,Anyone know any good sites that do COD or money order for these motherboard's & a reliable CPU for it?TIA :D

If your cpu is 67*f at Idle, how cold is your room? :p


Ps it seems you have great temps now, why would you want to add a louder fan if you already have excellent results?

ps isn't the 60 Mill Delta 37cfm and not 51?

Well I keep it pretty cold in my house..About 60-65°F in the house at all times,And my comp doesn't run to many fans so i'd like to add more,I like to have sys temps like the rest of you l337 overclockers :p lol,But uhm no that's the old 30cfm 60mm delta,They came out with a new one that's 50cfm 60mm,but loud as all heel and creation! 54.5decibels:eek: :eek: ,Well have a look here for yourself,Not bad fans for the price...Delta50cfm (http://2cooltek.safeshopper.com/24/266.htm?366)

Keep us posted,
I have to find out how well those 51CFM 60MM deltas are!
I think you may lose a ram slot or too, did you do the
math yet. THAT FAN IS 38MM TALL!:D

Haha I only run 2 RAM slots anyway :p ,I was checking around and I wanted to add some exhaust fans,And found some MONSTER 120MM YS-Tech fans! (120MM by 38MM:rolleyes: )But at a low RPM speed(2800RPM)And a 125.5cfm! :eek: I don't think anyone would mind the 45 decibel noise now would you :p (btw found those fans for $16.00 ea.)

Heh ... Well add those damn 120mm/125 CFM on the slot :P

Bah the Delta's are too loud and I heard you shouldn't be connecting them to the mobo if so you'll fry your mobo :S

No,
Really Take measurements...Watch him not check and he finds
out all his ram slots are taken up by this moster fan! :p

Well for one lol two 120MM fans just wouldn't fit on a Slot A athy heatsink :p And two,I don't think I want them delta's without some kinda of noise dampener,They'd drive me nuts! :eek: So I'll just buy this new case with already has about 250CFM going for it with the exhaust fans built in it and add on to it :p Thanks everyone you all have been more then helpful!

Yodums,It says on the page to get a 3Pin-2-4Pin connector as it will short curcuit the mobo yes,Would not be a good idea to hook up a 60MM fan with 50CFM & 8000RPM to a 3pin fan connecter...Thing draws about the same amount of juice as a YS-Tech 120MM fan lol :p
