I Also want to know if the H100i water Cooling will work in the 750D case on TOP radiator & fans

 

 

Sorry about this posted this in someone else's thread

Quote:

H100i does right?

so the H100i radiator & fans will fit on the Top. I like how the H100i light up and software and u can change colors right?

 

As to the H100 can u not do this.

 

I'm Also going to Buy the 750D its amazing i like how clean it looks with all those nice filters on the top and bottom. Unlike the 900D i was gonna jump on it because it has three fans on the front like the one i have in in my profile. But i really don't like the 900D Top how it doesn't have the rubber filter on it makes it look even better and cleaner

 

 

Any other Help and suggestions are considered to me All the help i can get

Hi! That is the exact same upgrade path I took. The H100i will definitely fit, I was even able to add 2 more fans for a push/pull configuration.

 

Note that fitting the 8-pin CPU power cable may be tricky, I actually had to sand down a corner of the clip, but its all in there. I'll upload pics tonight when I get home if you'd like :)

ya definitely would like to see. Thank u ComputerMD82. Nice did u have same Case?

 

Also what do u mean 8-pin CPU power cable may be tricky. Guess I'll see in screenshots and what do u mean by adding push/pull fans where at and what size 120mm 140mm.

 

Also is the New Case going to be Bigger. And I'm New to water Cooling do u need liquid or something or NO. First time doing this alittle scared about it tho hope water don't spill out

Yep, I had the exact same case, the DF-85. You can see a pic of my old rig in my avatar still!

 

I'll take pictures of the 8-pin connection on my motherboard and how close the fans are. The h100i uses 120mm fans by the way.

 

The 750D is roomier, better cable management as well. I added hard drive cages to mine, I have 13x 3.5" hard drives in the case and I had enough room for all the cables. I also have 6x 2.5" drives.

 

As far as the water cooler, these type are closed loop (contained) systems. I've handled at least a dozen and have never had one leak. You don't need to add anything to it, the liquid coolant is pre-installed and sealed. My first closed loop cooler has been in use for almost 3 years and its still going strong.

one reason I'm changing is cuz of the front 3 fans on the DF-85 rattle and ive tried everything to stop it and still rattle. Not sure what 8-pin connection u mean tho havent installed any cooler before. DO u put the fans on the radiator and which way u have them turnd to get best air.

The 2 cables shown are fan speed control and power. The fan speed control plugs in to the CPU Fan header on the motherboard:

There is another cable, although it's not shown in your pic, that you plug in your fans to. The H100i supports 4 fans.

 

The other is the power cable for the pump. It uses a SATA power connection. (The same you would use to power a hard drive or SSD).

 

Just got home, pics coming soon.

That cable powers the fans. It connects to the cooler right above the Corsair Logo on the pump.

 

Here are some pictures I took. If you need details of anything feel free to ask.

 

The first few show you the space inside the 750D. I have the case maxxed out, and everything fits just fine. There is a generous 1.25 inches for cable management on the back as well.

These show the watercooler. I'm using 4 fans total with the radiator. All of these fans are blowing upwards. The 2 under the radiator "push" the air through the radiator, and the 2 upper fans "pull" the air out of the case. That's what people mean when they call it "push/pull"

 

You don't have to add the 2 extra fans. If you only use 2 fans, use the "push" configuration.

This shows the CPU power (8-pin connection). For my board, it's awfully close to the fans. On your board it looks like the connector is further down, you should be fine.

Looking at the top of the case, you'll see mounting holes not only for 120mm fans, but also for 140mm fans. I would still stick with the H100i cooler. The added width on the 140mm fans (and H110 cooler) may interfere with your motherboard if you use a push/pull config.

I have 120mm fans with the H100i cooler, and this is all the clearance I have.

Here are some comparison pics with the Darkfleet DF-85 Case. They're similar in height, but length and depth are longer on the 750D. HDD mounts point to the back so all the cables are hidden, and you have much more cable management space with the 750D. Also, installing and water cooler to the top of the DF-85 means you potentially lose the use of one optical bay, or you lose one of the rear fans. Way too cramped for this cooler.
