H105 or H100i

[Guest]

Hi, I can't really decide what cooler that I want, I like them both but the only thing that I about the h100i are the 120mm fans that need to spin fairly fast to move air, I am a silent freak so I kind of prefer ones that can move more air at lower speeds and make less noise. My only problem is that I really want noctua fans and not the corsair pressure optimized silent series fans. I noticed with my old cooler that had one of the newer corsair fans that some of the air leaks out of the sides of the cutouts, I really wasn't to happy about that. So any suggestions would be appreciated. I am over the whole shiny lights phase for computers so I just want a clean professional looking system.

I bought the H100i sfirst because is slightly thiner so i choose it, because i didn´t knew if the h105 would fit in my case(phantom 410 gunmetal), but in performance the h105 is slightly better as it's thicker than the h100i, and if you like leds the h100i have rgb leds in the corsair logo and the h105 have some rings to fit the af's and sp's series, oh almost forgot, the h100i have ports to conect the fans to the pump the h105 doesn´t . Hope it helps (sorry for my english)

If you want silent run something like the NH-d14 or Phanteks PH-TC14PE. They run quieter can cooler than AIO liquid coolers.
Its easier to push air across aluminum fins than it is to push it through a dense radiator, slower fan RPMS is a result.

I already bought the Swiftech h220 with noctua NF-F12s, and it all has been running silent and cool. My processor at 1.3v only gets up to 60c

The H105 performs better than the h100i, but if you are looking at 240mm all in one liquid coolers you should be looking at the Swiftech h220 with Noctua NF-F12 fans.
