brkkab123 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I'm purchasing a Hydro Series H100 tomorrow.I have Carbide 500r White case and a MSI 890FXA-GD70 mobo.Can I run push/pull on the H100 in this case ?Iwas wanting to add dual set of AF120 Quiet Edition fans to H00's stock pair.I'm also adding Asus Crosshair V Formula-mobo next month.I haven't entered my system speca as I'm in upgrade mode and everything is being upgraded over the next 4-6 month's.

G50EED Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 You can have a push-pull configuration but you won't be able to keep the top grill on the case if you do. It's purely a cosmetic issue. But you cannot add a second set of fans that are different from the other set. All four fans must be the same in a push-pull set-up. So either buy four of the SP fans or just two more of the stock fans. Here's the link for the latter: http://www.corsair.com/us/parts/cooling-parts/fan-kit-h80-h100.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 ramguy says its ok to mix fans as long as their paired,while i think all the same is best,i would believe he knows best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pc-illiterate Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 paired as in, the same fan pushing the same pulling fan. the h100 will fit push/pull if both the rad and bottom fans are inside. it BARELY fits but it does FIT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 1, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 1, 2013 You are welcome to use or do what you like but I would suggest using the fans that came with our cooler as they are high static pressure and what you need for the radiator for best cooling.

brkkab123 Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Thanks everyone.Igot theH100 Tuesday.I'll have to wait untilIupgrade my MSI 890FXA-GD70 mobo to a Asus Crosshair V Formula-z mobo.2 sets of fans won't work with 890FXA-GD70. Ican`t figure out which front panel wires are power, reset, hdd led or power led.None of them have any labelling on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 The front panel connectors on the 500R should be labelled. If you mean the motherboard connections, refer to the motherboard's user manual for guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brkkab123 Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Yeah, they should be, but on the new case I received they aren't.Then the fan connector for the front fans/fan controller won't fit any of the mobo's fan headers.I can't do a rma onCorsair's support site.Everytime I click submit/send, it restarts the process.It obviously doesn't like my Xbox 360's version of Internet Explorer.If the part's were labelled and the case had actual documentation maybe I'd be able to use my pc.The front panel connectors on the 500R should be labelled. If you mean the motherboard connections, refer to the motherboard's user manual for guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
