I was wondering how much air flow in CFM do you want for a dual heatercore?

you really don't need much. 50-70CFM should do it. extremists will get the high end fans that move 100+ CFM. i got panaflos on a FSC so the performance varies but on full blast, these things move A LOT of air.

I've had good luck with L1As on a dual core. They push a lot of air since they're 38mm thick verses only 25mm for a lot of other 120mm fans.

Get 38mm thick as a neceseity with a double heatercore.

for the fan rating, as mentioned above, 50-70CFM is good, but the actual CFM going through the rad will be WAY less.

If ur wondering how much actual cfm, i really dont know as i am now aware of any testing in this regard.
