Does the cooling capacity really increase with the extra 80mm? or will it be worth just sticking with 480mm rads? and which fan, 120mm or 140mm, typically lasts longer and pushes more air?

Thanks

Maybe
Slower rotation vs more fans doing that rotation.
Plus, possibly a bigger pump to effectively push the liquid through a bigger rad.

It is not always cut and dried.
