*URGENT* Will this cooler fit in my case? Or suggest something else!

[Sixsixx]

I urgently need a new CPU cooler (in the next one or two days) because my current H100i has decided to crap itself.

I was looking online and found the Swiftech H20-220 Edge HD CPU cooler for $239, it far outperforms every other AiO setup I've found, from the Swiftech H220 to the Kraken X60 to the H110.

I have a Corsair Obsidian 650D case, and I'm wondering if the radiator (which has fans, waterblock and pump built in) will fit.

My H100i fit with absolutely no problem, but I'm concerned due to the thickness of the radiator, as it cannot be split inside / outside the top of the case due to the nature of the cooler.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Alternatively, suggest a setup (preferably custom) which is obtainable for ~$250 (I realize this is cheap for a custom setup) but which would provide similar performance AND fit (the 650D supports 240 / 280 at the top).

Thanks for your help guys!

Take a look at the XSPC Raystorm 750 RS240 http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16891/ex-wat-219/XSPC_Raystorm_750_RS240_Extreme_Universal_CPU_Water_Cooling_Kit_New_Rev_4_Pump_Included_w_Free_Dead-Water.html?tl=g30c321s1310 . It is a really good custom loop and very easy to setup if you take your time. Plus it can be added on to and expanded which closed loop systems can not. I have that same setup in both of my AMD/ATI rigs and it works very well.

Thanks for your response, however the Swiftech can also be added to extremely easily, it's one of the main reasons I'm interested in it, so that I can expand it to a GPU loop as well if I need to.

What advantages does the XSPC have over the Swiftech, apart from being $100 cheaper?

Thanks.
