What's a good AIO Watercooling that fits the looks of Define R5.

Hello.

 

This is just a personal preference question and not so much technical.

 

What AIO coolers look best with a Fractal Define R5 (Titanium)?

 

I was going to go with the new Corsair 280mm H110i GT but there seems to be a clearance issue, it will still fit in a R5 but it requires a removal of the rear exhaust case fan which does not look very sleek having an empty fan mount there.

 

So maybe I'll just go with a 240 rad over 280 instead, as long it is better than the Corsair 240mm H100i then I am happy.

 

Thanks.

PS: Try to avoid the colour red if you can, otherwise it is no big deal.

I live in Australia so it's fine.

 

Apparently the H110i GT will still fit with the rear fan but it's a tight fit so actually I will buy that instead.

But still please suggest more coolers if you want.

I just done a build in define R5. You can fit any aio up to 360mm in there.

Yes I know because I already got the Define R5 :D

I am asking which AIO looks best with the R5.

Does Fractal have a 280 rad though?

They have 120,240,and 360. The R5 supports 120mm mounts and 140mm, so anything between 120-420mm is supported.
