Thinking about getting H100i V2

My current parts are listed above and am looking for a good cooler. The reason I was looking into the H100i V2 was because I hate the big bulky air coolers and wanted something "maintenance-free". I just wanted opinions on how this would work. Was thinking about getting 3 red 120mm fans for the front of case, 2 for the radiator and one right above it in the front of the case.

The Kraken X62 is also a great option if you can find it in stock. Might be a bit more expensive, but definitely looks nicer.

I have about $100 to spend, not counting the fans, guess I should have put that in the post.

More fans, more radiator, less money

 

His case, the Cooler Master MasterBox 5, can't take 140mm fans.

Yes, it has 3 120mm spots.

Oh the Corsair might be a decent alternative, I guess. There fans usually suck (not air)

That's easy. Don't buy Cooler Master. Go for the S340 instead or something equivalent. This will give him 2x140mm fan support if he wants.

I have the H110i for my cpu and H50 for my gpu. Corsair makes nice coolers. I've had these for almost a year now without a any issues. If you like the h100i than go for it. You won't regret it.
