I was wondering would it be better to suck air off a heatsink or too blow air on to it???
this has to do with the fan placement

I think the point of the fan and heatsink is to pull the heat off the cpu, then spread it off the end of the heatsink.
I could be wrong though :rolleyes:
:lol:
Try both and see which gives better results.
Usually you want the fan blowing into the heatsink though...
so to suck it off the heatsink
it seems right, wish clocker would have a say in this
i will try both
i think clocker would say blow air on it... and thts wt i wud say too :rolleyes: try both ;)
I'm willing to put money on it that it should be blowing down through the fins of the heatsink, but expiriment and see for yourself.Quote:
