I'm completely confused... why are the fans going in opposite directions?

I have to agree. And these kind of threads come up all too often not to have a :cookie; in our repertory of emoticons.

So, if this "cookie" icon were to be implemented, what would you suggest it look like? I agree on its necessity, however it's universal representation should be explored and agreed upon before going forth.

It would totally have to be chocolate chip, no doubt, Chips a hoy style!!

Depends on the RPMs of the fans, it works almost in a way that a turbine compressor would work. So if some how they stack another fan on top of this, which I will, there will be more air flow through the heatsink.

Another thing I noticed also, my main HSF is now a cool >1000 RMPs less than it was previously spinning.

thats cause you got them going it the opposite direction

When people say "opposite directions" ... are we talking sucking vs. blowing or clockwise vs. counterclockwise ?

The airflow direction is still the same, into the CPU, the only difference is that the fans are spinning in opposite directions, creating a less turbulance and more efficient airflow.

Ooooh.... I was thinking that they were blowing in opposite directions. Ok, makes more sense then. :thumbsup:

It would be better if the thing in his hand actually looked like a cookie rather than a turd.
