I have noticed that certain 80 mm fans are labled CASE fans while others are labled CPU fans. Do I need a special 80mm cpu fan to attach to my heatsink or will a fast enough case fan do?

Other fans suck.

You are limited to what your mind can perceive.

You turn a fan one way, it sucks. You turn it the other way, it blows! You can't win!


I can't think of a good signature so I'll use this one.

No, it's two fans in one. Sheer genius! :cool:

So should I install all my fans sideways?

Usually labled by connector, with two pin fans called "power supply fans" as most power supplies don't have active monitoring.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?
