You can improve the cooling efficiency if you add a gap of at least 5cm between your fan and radiator (sorry ment to tell you about that for a while now)

It will also lower the noise it produces.

BTW which direction is the fan moving the air?

Maybe you have a point there. As I have it now the fan takes air inside the case and blows it out, I have it this way since the temperature in the case is about 2-3 degrees celcius over ambient. So, I don't want to heat up the case by blowing in the heat from the radiator..

The problem (I think) is that the radiator is too tight, the fan is really efficient but can still hardy blow air through the radiator, I can only feel a small breeze at the backside.

I've ordered a single line radiator now and that one isn't as tight and thick as the one I'm using now. When I get more air to move through the radiator it'll hopefully lower the processor temp a little bit more..

Or maybe it won't...I'll just have to swap back then, but I've seen test where single line radiators have show better results of cooling (small things like processors) than dual line radiators.

My computer isn't that noisy even as it is now, but that is for sure that it is the radiator fan who has the most noice
