Corsair H100

[jones2636]

Hello all,

Where could you possibly mount a corsair H100 in an antec 1200 with out major modification to the case. I was thinking of taking off the back 2 fans and seeing if I could locate it in there place and have it exsuating out the back so as to not disrupt the air flow through the case.

What do people think?

mount it at the back, but have it sucking air in from outside. make the 200mm top fan your exhaust and the front fans also intakes.

its better to have a case with more intake fans than outlet fans because it means air (and therefore dust) will be trying to get out of all those places that you cant put dust filters in, like the tiny gaps between the DVD drive plates. if you have too many outlet fans there will be a small amount of air flowing in through there, meaning you eventually get a lot of dust in the case

Yes but if I were to have it in that format I would be worryied about pulling dust into my rad.
