You can have 2 200CFM fans, say a 32mm thick one and a 74mm thick one. You put a fan girl in front of the 32mm one, the amout of air flow will be cut down simply because it does not have the pushing power the move the air at high rates with the restriction the grill puts on, but the 74mm fan will be able to move nearly as much air with the grill on, and with out because the blades are thicker and is able to have a higher air pressure when the flow starts to be restricted.

Thats what I am talking about. Here is a wikipedia entry of Pascal, the unit of measurement for pressure.

I shared the link with hubby when you 1st gave it to me. He's been having cooling issues and was talking about water cooling. Not sure if he decided to do this instead.
