DosGuru Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 1. I have a pair of EVGA SSC 980ti gpus. Will there be enough clearance to run a 110i GTX in the front of the case with 4 fans (push/pull) ? 2. I plan on running an overclocked 5960x. Wouldn't the 110i be blowing a lot of hot air right into my GPUs? both cards are overclocked and run pretty hot as is. would this even matter? thanks in advance!

occhaz Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I have an h110i GTX in my case. I would suggest the h100i, the radiator and fans would more than likely clear the HDD cage shroud then. http://i.imgur.com/J49s3Mq.jpg http://i.imgur.com/HK84mBU.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetac Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I have the same case and am in a similar predicament , my build is half finished as i refuse to not have the front filter not fit flush I have the set up as the OP wants in push pull I have contacted support due to how incompatible there own NEW products are with each other but have yet to have a reply back. The only screws out there that they supply as an additional pack are pan heads so give the same problem. By the way the screws you need are 6/32 X 1.25mm in countersink, the distance for the gpu once a push pull with standard size fans is roughly 11.5" my gpu when i install it is 11.2 so its tight but do able so your mileage may vary Once i have sourced some i will be able to finish my new rig:sunglasse http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah142/Doug_N_Shaz_Brooks/IMG_20160227_184149.jpg.e0cf13cdb3d057cf059dbe4f9e61c945_zpsbwufdxx2.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah142/Doug_N_Shaz_Brooks/IMG_20160229_011359.jpg.8d26804e82aeba50f1f835cc080a4a85_zpss88jdbnp.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah142/Doug_N_Shaz_Brooks/IMG_20160229_011344.jpg.f366b98a9c6a3c5bc147fb11410aafd1_zps5deh31nh.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah142/Doug_N_Shaz_Brooks/IMG_20160302_185658_zpsyuecrtce.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah142/Doug_N_Shaz_Brooks/IMG_20160302_185736_zpsvzs71dhc.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah142/Doug_N_Shaz_Brooks/IMG_20160302_185719_zpsf6pjpwem.jpg need to cable tie the pipes to the top fan or the door wont close without a bulge On a side note the gpu in the picture is an old 9800 gtx and is only in it to get the os installed . My 980 will be migrating across when i have resolved the above compatibility issue out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetac Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 can someone from corsair please reply to this thread , i put a ticket in on the 27th of last month regarding the screw situation (Ticket 6747329) but nobody has replied . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair Nick Posted March 15, 2016 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 15, 2016 We currently don't offer countersunk screws for the radiators or fans. I've reached out to our engineers regarding this. As soon as we have an update, we'll pass the info along to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetac Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Thanks Nick, but the fans that the case comes with are all countersink , it is just the radiator fans that are not. It would be a simple fix to offer them in the future especially as your own advert for the above case has a push pull setup. and i doubt the front filter is hanging off of it. I have sourced my own screws (6-32 x 1.25 A2 stainless hex drives) now at just under the cost of the set on your site and my front filter sits nice and flat.

Corsair Employee Corsair Nick Posted March 17, 2016 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 17, 2016 Not a problem. If you don't mind, can you post some info on where you acquired the screws for other customers to reference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetac Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 sure thing , they were purchased through Brammer in the UK , they are not listed in the catalogue as they only list metric ones but if you email them they have them, they may well be available to buy from other outlets, it is just the company i work for deal with brammer hence why i went with them.

infurnum Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Is anyone able to link me to where I could order these screws from. This is a game changer for me and has so far stopped me from pulling the trigger as I was set on a 400q with a front mounted radiator. I have no issue with buying these screws myself but do not want to try and order them from the UK. I have tried looking on the net but can't come up with anything when I search for 6-32 x 1.25 countersink. Corsair Nick can you please help find out where I would find these screws to order in USA.

Depending on where you are located in the US, you can try Granger or Fastenal. Not sure if back east they have other fastener specialists not on the west coast.

infurnum Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I'm in NY. What would I specifically ask for for the imperial measurements for these screws? I'm new to USA, I'm from Australia. If you could link me to a website I could order some from would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluetac Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 this one , you would need two packs http://www.homedepot.com/p/Crown-Bolt-6-32-x-1-1-4-in-Phillips-Flat-Head-Machine-Screws-6-Pack-28351/202706122 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you said 1.25mm in an earlier post I assumed they would be a lot shorter than 1-1/2 in. Can't seem to figure out if those ones are 2A tolerance class or 3A tolerance class though. You should have a job at Corsair because you've actually helped troubleshoot the problem more :) You are also using the H110i gtx? The bottom fan in pull configuration sits snugly over the 3.5" shroud, would you have to remove this fan if you wanted to remove the shroud at a later date? Also what is the exact clearance you get for a video card in there? Would you fit a big 980ti in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get the shroud in and out without removing the the lower fan , my mistake on the MM lol not sure why i typed that . I have now finished my build and love it , the smoked glass door looks awesome :) If you look at how close the clearance is of my GPU is is very close but it doesn't touch I Decided on installing the included USB 3.1 card as it hides the front panel audio connector as the sleaving is shockingly bad on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjack4412 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Hey Bluetac, Have you noticed high temps on your graphics card with this radiator setup? I just received my 400q and am curious if it is going to increase my 980ti temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetac Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 It is hard to say to be honest. my last rig that i downgraded from i used the coolermaster Haf-X and i had that fully loaded with case fans (all corsair ones i will add) even changed the front one so it wouldn't be a fair comparison if i am honest as that case is geared towards air flow I can run some bench marks and see what i get .
