Seidon 240m considering its much cheaper

 

Disregarding the price, they're very similar. HOWEVER, the Seidon 240m has a quieter pump and pwm fans, which at 50% are very quiet (the fans at 50% vs. 100% affects temps by about 2 degrees).

The corsair h100i is better, though the seidon is cheaper, if the cost is not much of an issue then definitely get the corsair.

I have no idea about the comparison, but I can tell you that I only experienced a 2 degree difference when I threw my H440 case fans (at 100%) in push pull config with the 240m's stock fans (240m stock fans in push h440 case fans in pull). So, I'd say the 240m stock fans are very good.

Its within the margin of error.

 

The h100i comes with Corsair Link which can be very useful.

That is within the margin of error, just 0.3 degrees away.

 

The h100i has Corsair Link, also

 

Link is a gimmick -_-

sickleflow would probably be worse I don't really know but I know they're cheap fans that supposedly die pretty quickly if you want the best Coolermaster cooler look for the Neptune 280L if it fits.

They're decent. If you're going to replace them.. NF-F12's or NB-eloops or nothing.

CM Sickleflow fans are incredibly loud, don't buy sickleflows.  Buy BladeMasters.

 

Also, buy the Seidon 240M.  The H100i has really bad mounting problems and it is not guaranteed to work for you out of the box without modifications.  In terms of performance, they are equal because different benchmarks have them beating each other, but never by a large margin.  The Seidon is less expensive, no mounting problems, no corsair link problems, and I really love mine.  Here is my Review With Statistics

"I genuinely dislike the promulgation of false information, especially to people who are asking for help selecting new parts."

Buy Blade Master 120's, they are $8.50 on Amazon and are incredible fans.
