Saleen219 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 This case will accept two 120mm fans or 2 140mm fans - will the H100i or H110 fit this case? Not sure of the hole spacing of either of those units... Thanks for your help. Dont want to go with the HUGE HSF i have now to cool my FX9590.

shuffl2me Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 i had the Z9 plus case and my h100 only just fit. could only get 3 screw holding it in through the mesh at the top of the case due to the holes not lining up and the power socket at the top of the mobo pushing the radiator out a few mm to far. it does fit but i wasnt happy with it. i asked Ocuk if the corsair carbide 300R would fit a H100 in the top, they said yes. trust me it doesn't, problem being once again that the power cable pushes the radiator out a few mm too far for all the screws to fit. better than the Z9 plus, but still a bit too small.

This is pretty common even with standard rads. Make sure you plug that in first and then mount the rad. It may take some effort but they will fit. Even in the 300R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in the 300R i suppose it all depends on what you are comfortable with, but the amount that the power cable is being bent and pulling the on the socket said cable goes into and the fans rest literally on the edge of the ram circuit board. i am not comfortable with moving my PC too much with it this tightly packed: http://i.imgur.com/AHkSZMA.jpg http://i.imgur.com/sdAxLmp.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 looks like you could cut the edge of the fan to get clearance without harming them... appears your build is as dusty as mine...;): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
