So 2 25mm fans work better in a push/pull configuration while 2 38mm fans are
wasted on a push/pull configuration due to high static pressure? Where can I buy some 3-pin housings and 3-pin molexs? As for me on what to buy for fans, I might as well go for either Panaflo Ultras or Delta AFB VHE/SHE Rev.C. One for the heatsink and another as the case fan.

Pretty much my understanding as well rpgman.

The 3 pin fan molexs and housings can be found on just about any online computer store such as Directron.com. You may want to dig around your favorite store (SVC.com for me atm) and see if they have any or not. They're usually found in the wiring section.

You must order them in bulk from Newark, minimum of 20. Warning you right now, that gets very expensive, and you have to pin them yourself, which actually shouldn't be too difficult or time-consuming as Marin explained. If you REALLY have to have the 1011, that's one of the few ways to get it.

I have decided on getting the Delta AFB1212SHE Rev C fan from Sidewinder. I don't want to wait on getting San Ace fans and Panaflo Ultra fans anymore. Besides, my motherboard is able to control the CPU fan speed in the BIOS and software (up to 2 amps and 24 watts max).

Sorry to thread-jack, but I thought it would be better than starting a whole new thread.

Which is the quietest high CFM fan? I don't want to have to undervolt anything, I just want to plug it in and let it run.

I'm currently getting 33C-36C idle temps and 55-60C load temps with my CM V8, will I see a difference with the Megahalems?
