Hey there, first off great build, looks really smart and I love the black and white colour scheme.

I was wondering how you managed to squeeze the H100 into the define R4 with such large Mosphet/VRM Heat-sinks on your motherboard. I ask because I am planning a build somewhat similar to yours in the Define R4, with a H100i and an MSI GD65, which has heat sinks similar in height to that of yours. Did you have to offset the mounting holes, if so by how much and could you possibly take a few more images of radiator placement for me. 

 

Sorry to bother you just lots of reviews say that a h100 will not fit in a Define R4, considering you got it in with such tall heat-sinks, this must be bull, just curious as to your method.

 

Thanks.

 

EDIT: My planning log = http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/25974-new-build-planning/

I had no problems at all fitting the H100 into the R4. there is tons of room to spare too. I don't know where you heard there were problems with fitting, but I assure your, this case was almost MADE for coolers like this : )

 

Thanks for the awesome compliments btw, and sorry for taking so long to get back with you.

The name matches the build.

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
