Currently running a corsair h110igtx in my corsair 400c case
Mobo is a msi krait gaming 3x board, due to its heat sinks I can't run the rad on the top of the case...
Gpu asus nvidia 1060 6gb strip rog
Set up:
Currently running the hydro unit on the front with ml140pro fans in push format, want to add a push-pull system too it but my gpu is like 3mm too long so I need some slim fans, needs some recommendations please,

Thanks in advance guys.

Push pull won't do much good for low RPM setting and low flow rate AIO pump such as H110i GTX, you can verify this if you have thermal sensor equipment. It's a different story if you set to 100% RPM ML series with four fans push pull on H110i GTX rad will dissipate ~ 300 watt for every 10 degree delta coolant rise at 25 degree delta over ambient.

My apologies if I'm in the wrong section, didn't see a "cooling" or "fan" section on the list, assumed not the CPU section so this was the last "reasonable" option I thought.

I'm just looking for a set of two, I'm going to leave the ml140p's on there, the slims would just be in addition, I just want more airflow inside the case for the mobo, basically I'm like 3mm shy of being able to put standard 140s on both sides, so I'm thinking of going with one side slims.

And I'm just saying that adding those fans for push-pull is not necessarily better.
And different fans might actually make it slightly worse. More turbulence, wit hthe fans not being balanced.

Are you seeing any issue with your current temps?
I would look to any other possibility, before adding more fans on that.


But no, I have no specific recommendations on any slim fans.

Yeah the turbulence is my biggest fear here, I know between all the rotation laws and such that essentially fan a in push will be working harder and b will work less(basically a will have to work harder to slow down while b will work less to speed up to a) basically causing them to find they're "equilibrium" between the two..
As of right now I'm oc'd to 4.6 on my 6700k, idle temps are like 18-22c between the cores, with full load (bf1 on ultra settings) I'm at like 40-50, iknow my temps aren't bad, just always trying to improve them.
