Also, what difference is there between these two fans aside from the fact the first is a PWM? I'm assuming this first one is the one you meant since it appears to be a duplicate of the fan that comes with the
Hyper 212 Plus:
Cooler Master Blademaster PWM 120mm R4-BMBS-20PK-R0 Silent Airflow Case Fan
Cooler Master 120mm R4-C2R-20AC-GP Case Fan
212 EVO can use 2 fans in push-pull configuration same as the 212+. They are almost identical heatsinks, the main difference being the flatter bottom. The 212+ uses a single Blade Master 120mm fan (600-2000rpm) and you can easily buy another for about $10. The 212 EVO has a slightly different fan which is more powerful. There is no easy way to buy an identical second fan because most stores don't carry it and it's out of stock at cooler master's website. Personally, I hold little hope of it coming into stock again, so if you have a 212 EVO you should just get the regular Blade Master 120mm fan (600-2000rpm) and a Y-splitter like
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16812200991 (you can find cheaper ones on ebay or amazon, though I would go for a sleeved version at least). Plug both fans into the splitter, plug the splitter into your mobo's 4-pin CPU fan connector. Even though they are different fans, they have identical rpm profiles and should be close enough in airflow (about 77cfm vs 83cfm or something like that) for the mismatch to not matter too much. In fact that is exactly what I plan to do with my setup in the future.
You don't need a splitter if your mobo has two 4-pin CPU fan connectors, which is rare.
Heck, even if your mobo has only one 4-pin fan connector and everything else is 3-pin, you could in theory get away with connecting one of the push-pull fans to a 3-pin connector and then adjust fan profiles in BIOS or software to try to sync it up with the fan on the 4-pin connector, but I don't want to mess with that and would rather just have both on the 4-pin so both of them spin at the same RPM at all times.
As for Arctic Silver 5, that's old school and slightly dangerous to use--if you get any outside the intended surface, it may short circuit your board because it's conductive. It isn't any worse than the paste that comes with the 212+ or 212 EVO, though, and may be a little better. But time has marched on and something like MX-2 is better than AS5 and just as cheap. Mwave.com has a sale on MX-2 right now, 4 grams for $4 incl. free shipping or something like that. MX-4 is supposed to be slightly better than MX-2. Once you go higher than the MX-2 and MX-4 league,h the bang for buck starts going down. That didn't stop me from buying some expensive Prolimatech PK-1 tonight, but I'm more than a little pissed at my temperatures right now and am doing everything short of getting a new CPU and new heatsink. I may even tape a 140mm fan in my 5.25" cage to assist in sucking cold air from the front of the case directly into the path of the 212 EVO.
I do not intend to post further in this thread, but I'm sure others can help you if you have further questions.
