I intend using 38mm thick fans, 133CFM on my new MoRa LT, instead of sissy 25mm fans...
Which sort of screws should I get?
*Radiator is to cool 4x GPU.

Thread is M4, length should be about 43mm (38mm Fan + 5mm to "grip"). 45mm could be to long, and you could puncture your rad...

M4, thanks, I would guess 40mm can do then? that is 2mm for grip, I am quite sure that 5mm would bend some of the fins

18 inch BOX fan.. and no im not kidding if you dont care about noise.

i think that would probably be the best if you space the rad out a tiny bit away from the box fan.

4 of those are an option...
But 9x 133CFM with fan controller seems to be winner.... Reason I dont go all in with 170CFM Delta fluckers is that they consume 18W per fan, while the 133 is only 6W per fan.... Allowing 9 actually being handled by a fanbus...
The M4, where can I buy 100 cheap? I searched on ebay and shipping is 34 USD

you can try McMaster Carr for the screws ... but shipping isn't cheap from there either.

M3 at 8mm seems to be cheap... I imagine if just mounting through one hole on the fan, that it will fit spot on
0.99$ + 3$ shipping, think I will survive if they do not fit!
@@ 9.96 USD, ordered 80 of them while I was at it.
