The Black-Magic fan would be a better choice, but you also need to look at the
fact that when you're driving, and there's air flow coming through the radiator
from the grill, the fan is OFF. What some have done is wire the dual fans for
the single under normal driving and the secondary fan to only come on with the
A/C.

If you're running in rush hour traffic all the time, or offroading at crawl
speeds, either both fans or the single Black Magic will work just fine.
