Thermalright SI-120

tahts just namin a few, u could serach around ya kno :p
 
if possible, have em blowin towards teh exhaust fan :p

if htats not an option [the si-120 for example] i prefer to have mine blow down, but i dont think it matters
 
seems to make more sense to me to have my xp-120 fan blow up towards the exhaust fan
 
well i have my 92 on side as an intake, so its more sense for me :p

fan is mounted on the front side of the case on the heat sink, blowing toward the rear, directly at my 120mm exhaust fan. the hard part was getting the clips over the retainers, but after that was done (took some feeling around and flashlight use up next to where the power supply wire rats' nest http://www.redhavana.net/albums/test-albumzor/DSC01364.sized.jpg ) the thing sits nice and sturdy over the cpu and it does a great job of dropping the temp... in fact i'm running about 15c cooler and 200MHz faster after i installed it... the temp seems to continue to creep down just a hair every couple days, but i hear it's because it takes a bit of time for the thermal compound to really set up.

here's a pic of my setup with the new hsf: http://www.redhavana.net/albums/test-albumzor/bighsf.sized.jpg
