Fan stacking.

spazticbusdriver · 08-May-04, 02:28 PM

I remeber reading about someone asking if you stack two 80mm fans ontop of each other. And alot of people replied that it dosn't help with cooling at all. However, when you stack two 80mm heatsink fans and turn them up to full speed cooling is improved.

This retarded idea goes on the fooktard idea list along with fridge-PC cooling and water cooling with 90% antifreeze.

No.
No.
No.

You mean 90% antifreeze is no good!?!?!

The only possible benefit you might see from stacking two fans would be a (miniscule) increase in the air pressure.

...and a good deal of noise too - aka a delta fan?

Stacking two fans usualy REDUCES air flow capability of the unit...Try it sometime

This thread should be dead already

Only when theres a WC Radiator inbetween them, right?

Heh nev_payne... try running a 92mmm delta on a 36v system. It'll self hover (which is a feat as it weights prolly half a kilo) but its louder than a jet.
