Mounting Corsair QL140mm fans on my Corsair raditator?

BurnsFPS

Hey sup guys,

 

I finally decided the CPU cooler I want for my 3700x and future 5900x,

 

I had wanted the Noctua at first but felt it would kill my builds style,

 

 

So now I think Im going to get a Corsair H115i Capellix,

 

Question I had is would it kill performance if I used my 2x Corsair QL140mm Fans on it, instead of the one's that it comes with?

I plan to front mount it if I use my QL fans.

 

Thanks for help :)

So yea I think Im going to order the H115i Capellix today,

 

My plan is to front mount it and put my 2x QL 140mm fans in the front to pull in air to the rad,

 

Do you guys think I will suffer performance doing this? I'm switch from stock 3700x cooler so hoping its a bit better,

 

 

I could also mount the included ML140, on the back side of the radiator but not sure if thats a good idea

 

 

My last option would be to get a EK-AIO 360 D-RGB instead of the Corsair completely. I heard its good but dont know for sure.

 

Let me know what you guys think, thanks :)
