I would probably have to move my RAM sticks in order for a 120x38mm to fit. Right now I'm using only two sticks of RAM and 32bit XP so that shouldn't be a problem.

Would the S-Flex SFF21F at the back of the TRUE and the Ultra Kaze at the front of the TRUE cause any problems? I ask this because of the 20CFM difference between the Ultra Kaze and S-Flex SFF21F.


Thanks for the help!

They say it's better to have the high cfm fan in back to reduce turbulence and help suck the air out. There's no use pushing air in if it has trouble getting out.

I think it's actually better to have a 38mm in front and an 25mm in back than anything else. Using a 38mm to suck air would be useless and add extra weight, but a 38mm in front can make all the difference!

Remember to always mentally link the number 38 with your heatsink, people!

Great job so far!

I really recommend this to get sticky'd as it will prevent having 40 which fan should I get threads every day.

A link to a retailer or site that sells each fan or the less common fans you have in your 2nd post on the first page would seem very helpful.
