The problem with fans is this: You want the highest airflow possible, without the noise. Fans in series (push-pull) setup will give you excellent flow. It would be far better to use two fans.

It's kind of funny... I see lots of people use one or two fans, when this is not what I would do.

My setup would be multiple small fans, on both sides, or a squirrel cage fan. The small fans have the advantage of being quieter, and cheaper too! The squirrel cage fan, if you find a good one, will give far better flow, with the lowest noise level.

Since I'm still building my system, I don't have any concrete/usefull info for you.

That's why I'm "The Theoretical Cooler"!
