I don't know. with all these new cases like the Cosmos and Tempest that have radiator mounts they are only one way. but there is no reason why you can't put 6 fans on the radiator.

maybe you can fit 2 more here on top side. if the screw holes are used up you could try cable ties.

Yeah, I think I'll pick up a few more fans just for the hell of it. Even if I don't like it, all I have to do is take it off.

I dont do a lot of H20 stuff but I dont notice any difference pulling or pushing (if the fans are sealed to the rad the airflow should be the same)

I cant remember who I read it from but I heard moving the fans about 3/4" of an inch either way improves flow a bit.

Using fans on both sides dosent seem to make too much sense to me as just because there are 2 fans dosent mean there is 2X airflow.(it may be a bit more but not 2X)

There is also the whole "room thing" dual fans means more space needed as well.

Yeah, MK, there isn't that much that can make better with that. I still have some room up top, so I was thinking on doing that. The Temps aren't bad right now anyway. Yet I still haven't oc'ed it since I got home.. lol.

I have 6 on my Thermochill in my Stacker. the radiator is mounted on the bottom but it's wedged half way in the case . the bottom yate loons are barely touching the ground about half an inch clearance. like this I was thinking of raising it a full inch by installing new case feet.

this is what houses my e8500, it took me 10 minutes in photoshop and the components I did in ms paint (easier) I drew every little ram sink lol it's not hard. I got the cooling system down to a science. I added 3 more yate loons and i'm about to purchase a Fuzion v2!

11 fans in the case! That's pretty sweet! I gotta see that case as a whole and not by the great art work you have shown us.
As for the Fusion V 2. I really like mine. Yes, I've never used it before, but just look at it.

Damulta: I am really liking it. I am just glad to not hear those damn Delta fans anymore! lmao. That was something else.. Didn't know how I even was able to sleep with them going!

Cav: Mei lady, after living with 6 girls from the age of 9 to 19, I really can't believe I didn't go to drugs! But, there is no drugs in my body. Just a little "love in the heart". Lol
