    How did you fit an 80mm fan onto a 60mm heatsink?

    The new one runs at 4219 RPM
    Coolermaster SAF-B83 Case Fan 80x80 --- Rotation Speed: 2500 RPM
    Also what speed is it really? 4219 RPM or 2500 RPM?

    It is almost totally silent&#33; Way less sound coming from it then my old one.
    If it&#39;s silent it must be 2500 RPM. If that&#39;s the case then how is it possibe that you have that much temperature improvement?

    Gee VB,
    I didn&#39;t see that he claimed to have mounted the case fan to the HS.

    One of us is confused.

    Edit:Although I do agree that that is a pretty spectacular drop in temps for just using that particular heatsink. Maybe he moved his PC into a snowbank....

    I realized that he didn&#39;t change the fan on the heatsink after I posted.

    I still maintain that a 60mm fan at 4800 RPM on that heatsink plus his new 80 mm fan on his case cannot have that significant a temperature drop. I have experimented with that cooler many times before so I have a pretty good idea what the results should be.

    I wonder just how deep he buried it in the snowbank?

    My heatsink already had a fan on it. I bought a 80mm fan to push the air out of my system. I dont know how it is as cool as it is. But thats the temps its showing me in AIDA32.
