Corsair Hydro H100i Extreme Performance

Hello everyone

That is my current airflow setup.
I am just worrying if i should get the Corsair Hydro H100i as it will take away 2 of my outtakes at the top, wouldn't that be a problem?

If you do that let the H100i exhaust out the top just as you are showing but reverse the rear exhaust air flow and make it an additional intake.

That will serve 2 purposes, #1 it will cool your motherboard voltage regulators, and #2 it will supply fresh outside ambient air directly to the radiator.

So the fans for the H100 does not need to be intakes for them to cool the water flow?

No they can be mounted as exhaust or intake and still cool the same.

So are you planning on mounting the radiator at the top of the case, utilizing the blow holes, and exhausting the air out of the top?

Or do you have motherboard clearance for that?

What case are we talking about here?

Planning to mount it like this

That's what I thought you were going to do, that will work, still use the rear as intake.
