Just get a basic AIO water cooling kit. Looks nice and cools amazingly if you want to OC for sure.

You can do better than that for the money.  They are quite slow as far as SSDs go

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

So many people really need to stop saying this. It's not even close to that bad.  Sure, the sequential reads/writes may actually be lower, but the random IO, which is what makes an SSD seem so much faster in the first place are still massively better than any HDD.

ok for the H100i, should i mount on front or bottom and fans blow in or out of case? (i dont know how water cooling works all that much)

fans should definitely blow out of the case ;)

Front with fans pushing air in is optimal for case thermals.

 

Front with fans pushing out is optimal for minimal dust issues.

Actually, let me just clarify.  I was just talking about the cooler, but let's describe everything here:

 

Generally there will be at least 1 fan in the front bringing air in, and 1 or more fans at the back/top blowing air out.

With the addition of a cooler rad (that should blow out no matter where you put it) you can put it anywhere, but if you can put it in the top, I think that's generally best since you're replacing exhaust fans with exhaust fans.  If you put it in the front (which is also common), all of your fans will be pointing out, which means air has to come in somewhere else, unassisted by a fan.  It might hurt airflow imo.

 

You could also mount it to the bottom of the case, but if you do, other things become important.  Depending on the feet of the case and what surface you are placing it on (hard like desk or hardwood, or soft like carpet), you may need to check if you will have enough ventilation room.  Same goes for the PSU and how that might have to be orientated.

this case is so fucked..... 

 

(the front is SOLID tempered glass, gap at bottom for air to get in/out)

Hm... I'm not sure how I would set that up.  It looks like a rad in the front would make the most sense, but then I would also want the bottom fans blowing out to remove heat from the GPU.  But that would only leave one little fan feeding 4 exhausts... not to mention that would mean using the rear fan as an intake, which is very strange and probably has no filter so don't do that.

 

Not sure about this one :)

Corsair.  They have, from what i've heard and seen, a great damage claim system.  They'll replace components if in the rare case the AIO fails and takes components with it.
