Anyone running a Corsair H110i cooler in this case?

I was running a 280 AIO liquid cooler in push/pull on front part of case. I'm almost positive the H110i will fit. I've since changed cases to a Micro ATX in the Obsidian 250D, that is supporting a 240 AIO in it

Cooler Master has a power supply sizing utility on their website that seems reasonable -- they do have a vested interest since they sell power supplies. I am a satisfied customer only. FWIW.

I have tried to find one for HTPC case, but failed. Tried to use Noctua LH-L12 and Cooler Master Gemini II, but neither of them fits - memory on this motherboard is located too close to the CPU. Such as I failed to find a proper low noise cooler for low profile case, I replaced it with small enough Cooler Master N200 case, using Seasonic Fanless 400W PS in it and Cooler Master Hyper TX3 cooler - now everything is absolutely silent. Don't forget to use DDR3-2400 to max out the video performance for APU.

Hi. The thermal paste is very highly rated. Here's a link to Thom's Hardware site, but if you check around, several sites rated it by far the best. If the h100i is rated for your chip, then it should work fine. BTW, consider adding a second fan in a push pull configuration if its not already set up that way as you won't have to run the fans as fast for the same cooling (quieter!).

I cannot say with certainty because I don't have those parts to test, but the cooler is wider than it is tall so it may have issues. The fan more or less is the top footprint of the unit, so if you can place a 120mm fan centered on your CPU without it bumping into things then you should be ok.

I do not have this case, I had to return it due to the SSHD not working. However, I was able to install my Corsair H100i in the standard setup - could not use it when reversing the MB tray to the left side of the case. I hope this helps, and that you have better luck with your case than I did.

Yes I used corsair 120mm h80i and it fit fine on the rear fan port. It has mounts for a 240mm radiator mounted to the top of the case.

Yes, I'm using a hyper 212+ right now with about a 2in clearance fr the tower door.

I am using a Corsair CX 750M power supply on it and it works great! I am NOT overclocking though.

The minimal i would run with and currently do run with is the corsair h100i. Anything less will overheat quickly as this chip is a heat beast.

Sorry, I use a Corsair H100i closed loop water cooler for my PC you can get a H80i or H90 for the same price as the Noctua

I own this: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - CPU Cooler with 120mm PWM Fan (RR-212E-20PK-R2)

Well I'm running 2 780 Ti's in SLI, and I do believe that cooler will fit; however, I would recommend a sealed watercooler such as the H100i, or H110.

Hi john... I've this chip and it screams. I use a corsair watercooling H100i. Easy to install.

Pretty much any fan controller that is front/5.25 mountable should be fine but i don't have a controller in mine, i just let the motherboard handle the system fans, and my Corsair H80i has its own internal controller. Something like this would be fine: Kingwin Multi-Function LCD Fan Controller Panel Cooling FPX-003

they make a H110i and a h100 which I have in a corsair 650d and yes plenty of room, and the scew holes line up for a quick easy install. To be honest the H100 is set to lowest settings it will go in a i52500k overclocked to 4400mhz and it wont get hotter then 26c.

I actually had mine in a pretty small, mini-itx build. It stayed reasonably cool during most day-to-day operations with the stock fan, between 35C and 50C--and that's without any other case fans. As long as you aren't doing anything too CPU-intensive, I'd consider the stock fan pretty adequate. Good luck with you build
