why is it that you see more people with 240mm AIO LIQUID COOLERS rather than 280mm AIO LIQUID COOLERS from what little I know about liquid cooling Rad size Is Very important for performance.

So why do I see people with H100i and H105 that are 240mm not H110 that are 280mm.

Also as far as I know the Nzxt x61 is the only AIO with a variable speed pump.

WHATS UP

Because you cannot fit a 280mm radiator in a 240mm mounting spot.

I went with a H100i because I'm building in a BitFenix Prodigy and also because I want Corsair Link functionality, and 240mm radiator is the only that fit in the top.

so the 120mm fans are better optimized at static pressure??

Not really, most good 120mm fans have an equally good 140mm counterpart.

I have a h110 sitting in my closet...it's oversized and overkill. Not a ton of cases are compatible with 280mm rads. And the 240mm rads can more than get the job done. 99% you will hit voltage limits before temps with an AIO
