Hi.
So basically, the title describes it all. Everybody says that a 140mm fan on a 140mm radiator will get significantly better temps than a 120mm variant of this fan on a 120mm variant of this radiator at the same RPM (Captain Obvious). But my problem is that at the same RPM the 140mm variant is also going to be significantly louder than the 120mm variant.
So my real question is: Which of them ultimately gives a better performance/noise ratio?
