Hmm I'm not sure a watercooler will work with the build I'm planning, glad I'm thinking about this now rather than buying and learning it when I try to build. I want to get the
Fractal Define S and put the radiator on the front panel and keep the top closed off to reduce dust accumulation which I've had issues with, since the Define S has filters on the front panel and bottom panels only. Top is not filtered and neither is the rear fan. But now I'm fairly sure the pipes on the cooler,
Corsair Hydro Series H100i GTX, will reach that far and I don't really see any others that do either. And I'm definitely not venturing into custom cooling right now.
So I guess my best option is to just go with a fan and pop one or two more 120/140mm fans on the front panel and create a shit ton of positive air pressure out the rear fan. Something like this? Probably makes more sense this way using a normal CPU air cooler as I won't have hot air passing over the whole rig from the front radiator to the rear fan...
Thoughts?
