Ah, personally I wouldnt get it, the pressure drop from the adapter will KILL any chance of a performance boost. You probably would get about the same if not better performance out of a 40ish cfm 92mm fan...seriously.

Not exactly...
If shroud is verylong, it will work very nice.
Twigs - make a hole in side of case, mount fan and long shroud from fan to heatsink. Hard? A bit. Cool? Even more!

Making direct air inlet in case, you don't need so many fans pushing air in ot out of case.
Eventually, if your case supports 120mm fans, you can mount in on front or back side and make some duct directly to radiator. Such things were published and approved to give decent performance.

I have 4 of these going. 2 on each side of my big rad. You wouldnt even know they were on. Unbelievable how well they perform. Thet look to be spinning quite slow but the amount of air forced from them is major.
