ITX smaller air cooler vs removing rear case fan for bigger cooler

[aoshi849]

So i'm planning on building an ITX Mini build for the first time. Im looking into the 8600k OC with a Cryorig R1 but the case I'm looking into probably wont beable to handle the R1 and the rear fan due to space. Would I get better cooling with a H7 and a rear fan on the case or will the R1 without a rear fan on the case be okay?

Note i am not going AIO, already have a AIO rig and looking to go air.

which case ? and which motherboard ?

you can always use slim fans if there is no space

So im gonna use the Z370 Strix I and the case im planning my build in is the new NZXT H200i that will be coming out later this year. Ive been reading its specs and sizing out my parts and from the looks of it I wont be able to fit the R1 with the rear case fan. Unless maybe I use the slim fan on the back end of the cooler but I deff need to use the Slim fan on the front for the ram clearance on the board. Two slim fans probably not the best cooling

maybe I can use slim fan on the case as well

The 200i has four fans mount.2x140 at the front and one 120 rear and one 120 TOP , dont worry much thats more than enough to air cool your System. one missing fan is not a big deal . Get the R1 .
