1 x Corsair SP120 Performance Series High Pressure - Dual Pack £25.99
Total : £2,548.56 (includes shipping : £14.75).
I decided to buy the above items, the motherboard I changed but the one I picked was the same dimensions. After starting to build this setup I've hit a few problems so far.
1.The H100i will not fit in a push / pull setup with this case and motherboard combination.
2.The SP120 fans cannot be controlled by the H100i fan controller (I recently found this out on the net I have not tested it myself yet).
Based on the above problems I have a couple of options.
1. Get a different case and go push / pull in that case also getting a fan controller for the SP120's.
2. Stay with my current setup just using two fans on the H110i, and not using the SP120's
3. Rethink case and cooling.
Just wanted to get some feedback and see what other people thought.
Thanks,
Rick
