Heatsink fans question

[phillyman36]

Hey i just ordered this

http://www.thermalright.com/ne..._cpu_cooler_775rt.html


The fan is 1000rpm. Do you all thing i should replace it with a higher rpm fan? I dont really overclock and if i start i wouldn't do anything extreme. Fan noise doesn't bother me( i use to live across the street from an Amtrak station thats loud)


The case is a Antec p182 Is the 1000rpm enough for a p45 mobo and a q9450?

Don't look at fan RPM specs, look at CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) specs.
That tell you how much air the fan actually will move.

The one that comes with it is 38.9CFM

only way you will ever need a different fan is if you overclock and start running into temp issues,.. but you should have a lot of room to work with even for mild overclocks,....
