Howdy,

on my chipset cooler one intake is bigger on the inside. Which end do I have for inflow and which for outflow?

I took some pics of it flowing UV light in my room but my camera ran out of batteries and i need some to get them on my pc. So check back soon!

Not sure I completely understand the question... are you asking about the airflow in your case? Maybe the pics will help explain :confused:

The water intakes on the zchipset cooler. One is bigger than the other on the inside. I was wondering which one should be used for the INflow and which one for the OUTflow?

They both fit a 1/2 hose but one of them has thicker medal and a smaller opening.

Is one closer to the center than the other?

Also, what model is it?

It doesn't matter which side you use. BTW, he's talking about this one:

I would say have the bigger one for outflow.

some fittings are milled with the inside diameter smaller by some thing like 3/64th, shouldn't be too much of bottleneck

Doesnt hurt to bore them out either. I like mine nearly paper thin.
