currently have 120mm with both fans pulling
60c idle 98c under load :lol: what a joke
ill try push+pull. i doubt it's going to make that much of a massive difference.
if not then replacing thermal paste.
then if not a 32oz hammer should fix it.
So... You're telling me you have a single 120mm radiator, With the fans both in pull?
So how does that work exactly? Do you have 2x fans on one side of the rad? Or do you have one fan on each side... Countering the other one out lol
If you have two fans, You should always do Push/Pull. With a single fan.. Push is always better.

pulling seems kind dumb
radiator gets warm. you pull air from outside. it heats up passing over radiator then goes inside
Push/pull is how the fan is set up on the radiator, Not the location the rad is mounted. If you have a fan blowing air through a rad, its push. if you have it on the other side of the rad blowing away, its pull.

sorry, i explained this REALLY poorly
there's one fan on each side of the radiator, both fans are pushing air in the same direction, out of the case.
think they should both be reversed, or both fans pushing into the radiator?
I really should read the second page of threads before i quote things on the first page
