o nah its a 320 rad from swiftech :P

postage wasnt too bad worked out to be around 50 NZD ish i think for all the parts except the noctua fans (i got that cheap in tw :P)
i got the pack around November last year when the nz dollar was still strong lucky me ^^

you might want to add some tape around the the fans and the "shrouds". with a gap there most of the pressure escapes.

I keep seeing people with build logs buying like 10 of those $30 fans for a radiator it really bothers me when if you look for reviews or tests the NF-P12's CHOKE when a fan filter or a radiator is used with them causing the already low airflow to be dropped more then normal compared to other fans. here is a random thread i read a while ago proving this : http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums...er=asc&start=0

All of these would have been cheaper AND better then the noctua's. You can read Vapors awesome fan review here: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=171661 it includes different speeds, open air and radiator performance of airflow and dBA, its epic. You asked for a critic so dont flame me for trying to help!

Oh no

i thought the P12 model has been shown to produce higher static pressure than the S12??
