hi everyone i have currently got a h100i from corsair on its way and have heard if you can afford it to upgrade the fans to there aftermarket 120m sp fans there a couple of options ie. quiet edition ,performance and high pressure editions.

 

so my question is which of the types do i need for :my push pull config on my h100i and i also need x2 for the front of my case and x1 for the rear of the case for a exhaust ??

 

i would appreciate it if you are to reply could you please list ie h100i pressure, case ...

 

thankyou very much i really do appreciate it guys :)

 

sorry one last thing my case is a corsair c70 so i know the push pull wont fit but when i get my corsair 600t case will the push pull work in that case ?? if not which would be the best set up?? i have heard that having it placed in the top of your case with just x2 fans attached the the rad as exhaust fans , is this true ??

 

thanks again

the only difference between the fans that come with the h100i and the "after market" ones are the o rings (the coloured one) and the rubber mounts. The h100i comes with pressure silent type.

I wouldnt get more fans unless you really want them or need them

Well it comes with the pressure optimized fans, but definitely not the silent/quiet edition as they can get extremely loud, MUCH louder than my normal SP120 Quiet Edition fan.

Get yourself a par of NF-F12's in pull only.

 

h100i will have great performance.

Push pull is only effective if the fans aren't good enough to push air properly in the first place.

A single pull should work. I'd recommend not getting SP120's or using the stock as they are quite loud.

Rosewill Hyperboreas, Gelid solutions, NF-F12's, CM Sickleflows, and Arctic F12 PWM's would be good and quieter.
