Hi Guys, I have a R9 295x2 120mm radiator sitting in the top back 140mm exhaust slot on my case.

I was considering upgrading to two HP-14 140mm fans in push-pull, since they have both 140mm and 120mm replaceable rubber mounting corners, and then using the "duct tape" mod to ensure an air-tight seal for the push-pull 120mm radiator so no air leaks out the sides.

The 140mm and 120mm fans are the same price, and the 140mm has superior specs.

Thoughts?

I already have some matte black "gaffer" type of duct-tape that is high quality and wouldn't even be noticeable, and I have no window on my case anyway. I just like max cooling and quietness.
 
the one with the wide fan blades is for radiators (I have that one on a H80, good fan) the one with the thin fan blades are for mounting to chassis.

No complaints with this fan, its pretty good imo have it mounted to an H80 cooling a i5 2500k @ 4.7ghz.

idle temps are 30-32 , Load is 65ish.
