Help a watercooling noob

[xAlphaStick]

Looking into water cooling and want to know if I would be able to mount a h80i in my case (Sharkoon T28)

I will be sacrificing air flow for sure and will have to rely on ambient air flow

Am I right to mount it here?

The H80i is a 120mm watercooler, so if a 1200mm fan can fit there then the H80i should fit there no problem. As for sacrificing airflow... That depends on where you have your intake fans and where you have your exhaust fans.

Should fit

The front of the T28 has 2x 120mm intake fans. As long as you set your H80i as exhaust you won't be compromising your air flow at all. You can also remove part of the hard drive cage to improve the flow.

I think I will go for it. Water-cooling seems like the way to go especially if I want to start over-clocking further.
