Radiator Fans: 2x Corsair 120mm PWM

Fans (Radiator)

WHY WE CHOSE IT

"A 240mm radiator takes 120mm fans. There is no 140mm option on this loop, which is why every 140mm fan in this build is somewhere else."

Two Corsair 120mm PWM fans on the 240mm radiator, in the top mount. The third slot in that run carries a Montech 120mm, so the top of this case is three 120mm fans across.

Optimization Notes

When installing the Radiator Fans: 2x Corsair 120mm PWM, ensure you follow our specific configuration guide. Standard installation methods often result in suboptimal performance or higher latency.

Hardware Verification & Care

Component Procurement & Testing FAQs

Crucial advice on buying used enthusiast PC hardware, silicon binning, and thermal maintenance.

Silicon degradation manifests as instability at stock or mild voltages. Test the CPU by running OCCT CPU / Linpack at stock voltage; if errors occur within 10 minutes, the silicon has experienced degradation.

For used graphics cards (especially OEM or previously mined units), check VRAM junction temperatures and inspect HWInfo64 for "PCIe Bus Errors" (WHEA 17/19).

Replacing dried thermal pads and applying PTM7950 to the GPU core restores used hardware to factory thermal performance.

Key Takeaway:

Always check WHEA errors in HWInfo64 and verify voltage stability on second-hand hardware.
