Default Queries on Ultima 90 or Scythe ninja plus rev B

Just a thought, would the above cooler be able to install it on a atx casing without ostructing the case?

I have decided to get the Ultima 90, from what i've heard from other's getting a quality fan would decide the coldness and keep the temp down to a minimum, wondering how true is it?

If is really the case, which brand of fan would u guy recommend?

Get a Yate Loon or Scythe 120mm fan with a 75cfm or greater.

Hey Jomo,

The speed of a fan has to do with cfm right? Would it be too noisy getting a 75cfm or above?

I'll be getting a ultima 90 plus maybe a cooler master certorion 5 casing in the upcoming 2 day

It may be a little noisy depending on which fan version you get, but if you don't use a high cfm fan, then your temps are going to suffer.

More air movement=better cooling

You'd want the airflow directed out the back, not up to the top of your case.

Say if i swap the cooler then it be almost touching the psu, wouldn't it appear wierd having both fan so closed and blowing at each other?

Oso under coretemp, there's a temp log which shows both cores temp (low & high) one thing which confused me which is how come there's 4 temp shows?

Say if i monitor from coretemp it shows 55-56 for core #0 and core #1 whereas under temp log it shows 4 temp as following

It needs to be turned so the fan is toward the front of the case blowing across the heatsink, and exiting the back.

Turn it 1/4 turn counter clockwise.
