I don't wuite understand the downward pointed fans, but whatever floats their boats...
"If your spoonful of soup is too hot, do you blow or suck air across the spoon?"
Hmm, I would try mounting the fan orientation sucking air out the sink. There's a huge gap between the heatpipes, so I'm sure that will work better. The sad part is it has the pushpins instead of a bolt down. That's kinda lame for a such a large sink imho.
Looks kinda cool tho.
yea neb i thought about that, replace the push pins with a TR bolt thru kit at $6 from SWC.
chance,
a downward air flow cools the nb/pwm's as well. that is why some with tower sinks need to add fans to the NB/PWM. Either that or they switch out the stock sinks for other ones.
I figured it was along those lines, but I am not a big fan of putting already warm air on hotter parts. I mean it would cool, just not as effectively.
