Default Megahalem Push/pull vs single fan
So ive had this question for a while. What would give me best performance? 2 Scythe S Flex 1600RPM fans or a single SAN ACE 1011 at 50% to 75%

Single San Ace. A single, more powerful fan has always been better than two lower speed fans. The only thing that makes Push-Pull good is when adding another fan doesn't make it any louder, and that's under 1200rpm.

Yeah not to hijack your thread. But I was wondering a similar question. Would 1 S-Flex F be worse than 2 S-Flex E's(push-pull)?
