To be utterly honest with you, I don't expect miracles anymore...

I switched from 2x Slipstreams 110CFM fans, to 1x Slipstream Push 1x Kaze Pull, to 2x Panaflo, all with same temp results. I can't say one setup was more quieter than the other either.

I would be more inclined to try the shroud, but I think my air cooling has just about capped out on efficiency, without going REALLY crazy with REALLY high speed fans. But then, my ears will bleed and will slowly start to go deaf.

I expected something like 1-2c difference in temps, but I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on perhaps gaining more.

Thanks for all the help.
