Hey,

I just bought a waterchill power kit for a server i'm building. I wanted more extreme cooling than the quiet 2 120mm fans that came with it, so i got 2 sunon 120mm (108cfm) fans.

I've mounted the 2 sunon fans so they are blowing air onto the radiator but was wondering if i could use the 2 spare lower cfm fans to blow air into the 2 sunon fans?. Would this increase the cfm or decrease the load of the sunon fans, or limit their air intake?

Thanks.

I would put the sunon fans in a pull configuration then use the lower cfm fans to push air through the radiator and create a back pressure for the sunon fans.

Ok, thanks for the advice, i'll mess around with the fan configs when the power supply arrives.

having the two low cfm fans will help a bit but it will be so small you wont notice it...
