Fan Stacking: Ever heard of it? Your opinions please...

Brian Frank

It might work well if it's like a turbine engine on a plane, with 1 fan rotating clockwise and the other counterclockwise. This is also with both fans designed to push air the same way, though. .

Looking for users of this fan type for CPU Cooler...

clutch

Yeah, it was me. The manufacturning techniques and quality of Aluminum have now made it to Copper in this department. I am just too lazy to find something for my 1. 6GHz Northwood (running at 2. 4GHz), since it has been working at close to stock temps anyway (30*C-45*C) with the stock Intel HSF.
