Will http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Extreme-Performance-Liquid-CW-9060016-WW/dp/B00HKEI3EY/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1389903544&sr=1-1&keywords=H105 The nwe H105 fit in my FRACTAL DESIGN DEFINE R4 pearl black/ Window. The h100i JUST fits and its 27mm but this is 38mm. Note, i wont be doing push pull, so, will it fit?

38mm is just the thickness, so I see no reason why it wouldn't fit.

Are you really upgrading from an H100i to an H105?

Because:
"The Hydro H105 bests its predecessor up to 1.5 degrees at a similar, slightly audible, noise level."

Sure it's better than the H100i, but only very slightly.

It may or may not hit your ram slots. Up to you. You could always return it if it doesn't fit.

Or just MEASURE to make sure he has at least 11mm more clearance BELOW the radiator.

No I didnt even BUILD THE PC yet. I am just waiting on the case to arrive. I also want a CPU cooler now So i was gonna get the H100i , So i have to pick, but shipping to UAE will make the h105 cost 200$! Im sure the price will drop but is it ok if i just get the h100i? Or would it be a mistake, as for the other guy, my ram is g.skill ripjaw X series TWO FOUR dims and i cant return it cause they would be shipping it to the middle east.

Can we do some research on that cause my case didnt arrive. Look,

I didnt build the PC yet
Waiting for the case to be shipped so i dont have that. I only have the PC parts. I want to buy an H100i or This, lets see how much clearance there is with my MSI Z87 GD65 and 2x4 G.skill ripjaw X series.

guys note i have to add two 120mm fans below that....

 

[Mirakledba]

I found this

Front: 1 - 120/140mm fan (included is a hydraulic bearing 140mm Silent Series R2 fan, 1000 RPM speed; 1 - 120/140mm fan (not included)

Top: 2 - 120/140mm fans (not included) - positions also support some models of 240 radiators, depending on configuration

I could always mount in on the front but...you know...where would I put my HDD?

 

[photonboy]

Contact FRACTAL on this. I can't find any info.

The H100i is also nearly as good. The difference is very, very minor. As my link showed there was a 1.5degree difference on the CPU when comparing the SAME FAN NOISE level.

Unless you really need to overclock things to the limit, just get the H100i, especially if it is cheaper.

Do you have to order in a bundle or is it fine to get two deliveries?
I would say just build the computer using the stock fan then when there's enough reviews and such the get it.
If that's not the case (pun not intended) just get another case.

I would recommend getting the Corsair c70 as it has been tested to hold a h100i with push/pull and I worked out that the h100i is 27mm, and each fan is 25mm which is a total of around 77mm. Yet if you're not running push/pull it will be 37mm for h105 with an extra 25mm for the fan making it a total of 62mm (A full 15mm smaller than the previous setup).
Then if you're confident you have more space then you can put it into Push/Pull.

I currently have a case that doesn't support radiator cooling but I'm getting the case I recommended and I'm going to wait a few months after it's released to see if it is actually worth it.
