Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't having two fans on a radiator with two different CFM ratings be a bad idea? What I mean is putting say an 80 CFM fan on the front side of the radiator (pushing air through) and a 70 CFM fan on the rear (pulling air through). To me that just seems like the slower fan will either restrict the airflow of the faster, or it will be forced to work harder to keep up. Am I wrong?
