black ice micro ?


right, gonna add a second rad this week to see if i can help temps. The idea is that i'd much rather add a 2nd rad than increase speed on teh main Rad fan (or indeed, add a second push pull fan).

You can see that below my maxexpert rad i have space for 2 80mm fans and then space between them and the pump/res to mount a second rad.







now given teh limited choice here in the UK my initial thinking was putting a black ice extreme in there (supposed to be better than a black ice pro) but now i reckon the easiest and neatest solution would be to put x2 black ice micros in there.

Firstly they will bolt onto teh fans nicely giving a clean installation and secondly they already have the right sized connectors for innovatek gear... yeah, i realise that 8mm sucks but im gonna stick with it for now.

So i guess has anyone used the BIMicro ? Would i be better off using x1 black ice exterem instead .. given though that the BIX would not be securely mounted against the two 80-mm fans cos its the wrong shape/size but would rather just sit in front of teh fans ?



cheers
