Antec P182 and Noctua NH-U12P SE2 (part 2)

Second part - Turned of the PC and running Prime95 in max. heat mode. Not really the best way to test right after putting the pc together since the thermal grease needs som burn in time. Current temps for the CPU are 28 idle and 39 burn.
Anyway...shitty audio brought to you by Panasonic TZ5 ;)

@ultragaming1993 u can't go wrong with a Noctua :) They always have the latest kits available for their coolers, so you can use them for a really long time. Also the quality of Noctua products is just incredible.

hi i noticed that you installed only one fan to the noctua cooler and the other one to the rear of the case so is this method better than installing both fans on the cooler ?

thanks , nice vid 5/5

Hi, thanks for the comment. I brouht this version with two fans, cause it's cheaper that buying the old version and an additional noctua fan. From the tests i saw on the internet it's not a big difference in the temperatures when havin both fans on the heatsink. To answer the question: if you already have a (very) good fan on the rear, leave both fans on the heatsink, otherwise mount the noctua fan on the rear of your case.

THANKS :)

now i have to figure which is the best istallation method , should i go vertical or horizonta coz i'll begin installing like.......today o_0

[perverzer]

It shouldn't matter, i think vertical is more natural for the fan. Good luck ;)

@perverzer Oke! thanks man i'm going to buy the Noctua NH-U12P SE2 today :)

Noctua plainly states which orientation to put the fan. I would read before you mount because it tells you not to mount it one of the two ways you mentioned
