A10M Heatbreak Cooling 2xPush vs 2xPull vs Push/Pull

Post by Jmccoy45 » Fri Apr 05, 2019 3:19 pm

Has anyone played with the fan configurations on the A10M to see which stock fan orientation provides the most effective cooling? Since the heatsinks have the same shape and face the same directions they sort of could be viewed as one piece. I've been doing some research on push or pull configurations and I'm hearing mixed opinions... Preliminarily it sounds like the fans may have come installed in the least optimal way and pull/pull may be the way they should be orientated. I have not done any sort of trial tests yet, just curious if anyone else had already put in the leg work here.
I look forward to hearing what you think!

Did you add the 40mm yourself?
Mine came with two 30mm (one on each heatsink) both in push configuration.

Ahh... good to know. I'm only familiar with the A10M that i have. What are your thoughts concerning push-push or push-pull for cooling?
