I have case called "Circle 821".I have ordered for a h100i gtx cooler, But when i checked my case today it turned out that there is no place to mount the twin fan cooler. I thought i could get a little diy cause i got air vent but when i checked now my motherboard's heatsinks are so close to the top now i thought of another thing. My case got 2 120mm(i think)in the front near the hdds. I am not sure if i could mount the h100i gtx there i could have gone for a single fan cooling but i plan to buy a 4790k and to overclock. So... Is there anything that u could suggest me to do. I want the h100i gtx so badly. Eventually i will upgrade my case but it might take some time. I have never seen a h100i gtx except in pics so i dont know the correct size of it so it would be awesome if u guys could help. Link to my case.Thank you for your time.

That case looks like it has basically no mounting points, you could possibly mod something into the top by drilling offest bolt holes for the fans to clear the heatsinks/RAM or to just zip tie the AIO rad to the back of the front drive cages as they are not removable it looks like with the front fans bringing in air into the case.

Thanks mate but if i want too upgrade my case what would u suggest cm mastercase pro 5 vs corsair carbide 9011050-WW.I was hoping to swap in my i3 with i7 4790k with that money.

Between the two the Mastercase would be a much better option in terms of customizability and watercooling, but will cost more than say the Carbide series. Some other good cases are the NZXT Noctis 450, H440 which have ample room for radiators or even custom watercooling.
