Corsair 460x and H80i V2

Hi guys,

 

I'm thinking of getting a 460x RGB case and I've currently got a H80i V2 cooler. 

 

I'm wondering if anyone has the same set up and can show me a picture of what it looks like so I can grasp an idea of what it will look like.

 

Ideally I'd like the cooler mounted at the rear, but if no one has that config, anywhere will do.

Why not a 240mm AIO? Are you overclocking?

Well, not really. I could get a 100i gtx from scan for £84 and just sell the H80i v2

No no, I'm asking for a picture of that case with the H80i V2 in to see if it looks decent or whether I should upgrade to a 240mm aio e.g. corsair h100i gtx

theres probably someone somewhere whos done it but its quite a high end case and intended for air cooling so not many will use an aio let alone a 120mm

Of course I appreciate that, but it's a temporary measure until I'm confident enough to do a custom WC loop.

If you aren't overclocking, then you don't need an AIO.
