So I might be getting the Corsair h100i GTX but I already have two of these where the radiator would go could I use them on the radiator or would it not work or just look really stupid?

You can't use those on the H100i GTX, they're 140mm fans and the H100i GTX is a dual-120mm radiator.

Noctua NF-F12s are great rad fans.

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

you could, but they aren't optimized for it. (you could go push/pull with the fans included with the AIO though if you want the look)

 

(^lol massive oversight^) if you get an H110i GTX then you could do as i suggested.

Aftermarket 980Ti >= Fury X >= Reference 980Ti > Fury > 980 > 390X > 390 >= 970 > 380X > 380 >= 960 > 950 >= 370 > 750Ti = 360
