Switch from 60mm to 80mm

[techweenie]

I switched from a Sunon 60mm fan to an 80mm fan on my SK6. My temps dropped by 4 degress C! I didn't know that I would get such great results from this. I have a fan adapter funnel that I'm going to throw in when I figure out how to mount it on my SK6. Hopefully I can squeeze some extra cooling out of the fan.

wow nice! What are the cfm ratings comparitively of the two fans? If they are about the same, or if the 80mm is lower, then probably getting rid of the "dead spot" in the middle of the heatsink, right under neath the hub of the fan, probably helped considerably.
