P95 large ffts for 1 hour 10 min, Real Temp GT 3.70, Cpuid hardware monitor. i7-3930k @ 4200MHz, 1.33vdc, 16Gb Kingston HyperX @ 2139MHz on Asus R4F. NH-D14 after 1 Hour. RT GT 176f,167f,165f,162f,167f,167f. Cpu HM power 193.04W, 80C(176f) fans at 1254rpm & 1314rpm. The HE-01 is a radiator & 1/2 compared to the D14. It has 1 fan so I got a 120mm x 16mm fan - http://www.performance-pcs.com/cata...duct_info&cPath=36_1130_408&products_id=36185. The D14 & HE-01 were mounted blowing up. D14 in pull/pull, HE01 in push/push using Phobya HE grease as TIM. The HE-01 large rad on top leaves enough space over video card for the 120mm 1/2 fan under the small radiator. RT GT 169f,162f,160f,156f,165f,162f. Cpu HM power 190.51W, 77C (170f) fans at 2067 rpm & 1551 rpm. Now at those fan settings the HE-01 wins but it is much noisier than the D14. So I dialed the fans down to 1510 rpm & 1145 rpm. At those rpms it sounds like the D14. I continued running P95 at those rpms for 1/2 hour & RT GT was 174f,167f,165f,162f,169f,169f max. Cpu HM was 192.75W, 80C (176f) So about a tie at the same noise level. That's F'in amazing I didn't think anything but water could beat the D14. I even tried the Alpephon K2 aka. Deepcool Asssassin which lost by 5C to the D14 using the D14 fans. The K2 mounting sucks & the 120mm fan moves very little air, the 140mm moves about as much air as the D14 140mm.
 
I'll take your word for it. I would not attempt to read the post, don't need a headache.

who uses F as a temperature measurement? amirightguys?
 
Using different fans throws this off from the start, and then you put the D14 in pull pull? Why? Pull is for rads, not HS's, HS's should be push. Use the same fans on both and have them both in push and then report back.
