Cool, thanks for the help!

Not sure if it will fit height wise though. Node 605 Specs says the overall height is 16.4 CM (With the stands I assume) and the U12S is 15.8 CM high, not sure if it will clear the enclosure. On the specs of the 605 it says: CPU cooler compatibility: Approx 125mm with side-mounted fans - For...

I got a 2500K OC'ed to 4.5 so will definitely need a quality aftermarket cooler, I think the U12S will be pretty good as it's performance is pretty on par with the H100i. But regardless, which cooler would you recommend for this case with a 4.5 OC?

Yeah I checked that out as well but couldn't actually find someone who managed to do it in the SS. I could just go old school and get a Noctua NH-U12S instead of the H100i... Should do the job pretty well I guess?

Thanks, bummer, I wasn't looking to actually buy a new cooler though... Might have to revert back to air cooling in this case. Could you explain why it's not suggested to fit the H100i in the 605?

Hey guys, I'm going to transfer my system to a Fractal Node 605, and I was wondering if it would fit an H100i as a CPU cooler? There are 2 adjacent 120mm fans above the M/B, so it looks as if it would fit, however, need to factor the thickness of the rad + 2 fans, and make sure if will clear...

While we're on that subject, do you guys know if an H100i will fit into a Node 605? According to the specs there is room for 2x120mm fans next to each other, but I'm not sure if the rad + fans will clear the motherboard slots. Thx

Sure thing, I'll definitely do that :) Thanks for your help bros!

Thanks, I went ahead and ordered the AC Infinity S7 Airplate, it's a dual 120mm unit which can be powered by a USB port on the PC which is great. My dad has plenty tools to get the job done well, so i'll move my system to the Node 605, install the fan unit and test temps. I believe the dual...

Thanks for the quick reply. Usage wise it would be mainly used for watching 1080p movies, however, I'm using SVP Project which takes up a lot of CPU and GPU usage, so things will get a little hotter than regular playback due to frame interpolation and hardware acceleration. I actually thought...

Deal is this, I have an Ikea Mostorp unit, which looks like this: As you can it houses an AV receiver at the bottom, a PS4 in the middle and a satellite box at the top. I currently have a system running in a full blown Corsair Obsidian 650D, which is huge and not needed anymore and I want to...

Well I ran the Data Lifeguard smart test and it passed fine, ran it several times. The hang is not serious, a matter of 6-8 seconds, but what's weird is that it only happens when I power on the PC. If I reset then there's no hang and it boots really fast...
