Water Cooling System Compatibility H100i GTX vs H80i GT?

[EmberVortex]

I am going to be purchasing one of these two water coolers ( Corsair H100i GTX or Corsair H80i GT). Money is not an issue for any of those two water coolers. I am wondering if the H100i will fit in the top of my case? If not what about in the front? PC Part Picker says there are no problems but I just want to be sure. I have no problem also modding the case ( cutting some of the metal away to make room). My build will be down below. *I OWN EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE WATER COOLERS. *

Thank you

The ceiling is, as mentioned, filled with two more 120 mm units. All of the fans within the GX500 are identical and are set to pull air out of the case. There is no space to install a radiator here, but this case is probably not the one you would go for with a liquid cooling setup. All the cables within the chassis are of the default variety

I don't think either will fit by looking at the case. It also has no front intake fans Just buy you a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO and add a couple 120MM front fans.

if money is not an issue why are you getting a fx6300?

setting that aside, no, the case does not support 240mm radiators without some serious moding.

you can use a h80i GT and stick it to the back fan mount, but you can't use the 100iGTX

I dought that will fit either because with that motherboard the video card goes in the top slot and the H80i radiator is bigger than the fan.
Look at the fan placement its right against the top slot.

I see what you're saying, it looks like the motherboard tray was adjusted up. and with the evo, he'd have to use the top slot for his gpu.

yeah, he's probably SOL with that case.

here is an alternate case. it's a little smaller physically, but it will support either radiator, and the price is pretty close to the previous price.
