This site says yes. http://aphnetworks.com/reviews/scythe-ninja-4 Something to take into consideration is the heatpipes are not soldered to the fins of the heatsink. At first, this is not an issue, but should be taken into account in the long term, because you will experience a drop in performance a...

I've found most of the time if good intake fans are uses no exhaust fans are needed .. and if needed it is more to change the case airflow patterns than to increase case airflow. By this I mean flowing a cool air supplying to component and flowing their heated exhaust out of case without it mixing ...

Re: Sapphire Tri-x Fury

HT4U gave Tri-X R9 Fury (default) outstanding ratings, notably its quietness (German). I am guessing the stock clocks version has a much better fan speed profile. By some sites saying that card is noiser than Strix R9 Fury, or that its fan speed profile is too agressive, I guess. http://ht4u.net/rev...

Air 240 is compatible with wide GTX 980 like MSI Gaming or ASUS STRIX?


EDIT:

Sorry I missed something.

Now I saw that Air 240 really is not compatible with wider video cards. I saw pics.
