Hi All,
New here but not too new to case building but far from having the knowledge of some of people here. I figured this was the right place to ask this question.
I have a Silverstone Fortress SST-FT02 and with a new build im considering using a Corsair Hydro H80 for cooling the CPU. The rest of the build is as follows...
Asus P8Z77 MoBo
Ivy Bride Core i7 3770k
16/32GB 1600MHz DDR3 RAM (not choose make, spec etc yet)
ATi Radeon HD6870 (will probably update this after a year or so)
2x SSD and 1x HHD
The spec is a bit irrelevant as it should keep itself cool enough in the FT02 case.
However i was wondering if any of you guys could tell me what removing the stock "golf ball" 120mm exhaust fan and replacing it with the Corsair Hydro H80 radiator/heatsink and fan in it's place would do to the overall cooling performance of the case?
Any one who has this set up is more than welcome to give their feedback/reviews etc as that would help lots
but obviously all replies welcomed. If anyone has any real world test results of the difference or a link to a thread/review about such a setup would be great too.
Hope someone can help and i look forward to your replies. Thank in advance.
