I beg to differ. I have the push/pull setup on my rad right now. When removing the "push fan", my temp raises about 3°C, put the fan back on and it drops back down again. Some may see this as negligble, but every little bit helps. I'm using the DD Cooler Cube, which has 30-some-odd fins within a 4 sq. in. area, so it's pretty dense. And I think the success or failure of the use of a 2-fan method, would totally depend on your RAD.
