Question Fan setup for a BIX


WHat is good air flow for a BIX?

Will one fan (Panaflow 108CFM) be enuff?
Or two fans in a push/pull show even greater results?
What would be the combined CFM with a push/pull?
108 + (108/2) = 162 ?

I used a push/pull through my Super Cube, if would of used one my temps would suck. (lots of air resistance)
Bix has very little air resistance. What is nomanel (sp)
air volume/flow for a BIX?

I would think the one fan would be enough for a bix. Just be sure to rig up some kind of shroud so you can keep the fan about 3 cm away from the BIX. That way when the air is being sucked through, there will be no dead spot in the center.
