Corsair H70 vs H100

A quick temp comparison between the Corsair H70 and the new H100. Just a preliminary test right after setup. Intel i7 960 @ 3.7 Ghz, HAF X full tower case, EVGA X58 Classified 4-way SLI mobo, 12 Gb Dominator GT2000 memory.
Used Core Temp ver .99.8 to monitor temps.

Does the H100 not come with enough screws to mount 4 fans to it? Where did you get your screws from? What size are they also? Thanks

@Syrius187 Comes with a enough for 4 fans, but for this particular config I needed slightly longer ones that wouldn't mess up the radiator grill. Went to Home Depot and got sheet metal screws (Phillips head) that are 6/32 x 1.25 (for the top fans), then touched up the tops with a little black paint.

Whats the name of your active Ram cooler pls

[Dechomai]

@Catworrior That is the Corsair Airflow pro LED unit that sits on the Airflow Pro 2 fan set. It works with Dominator memory that has the DHX Pro technology.

Can i not use two 200mm fans as my pull fans? I just bought two of them and i'm consider to buy Corsair H100 but i want it to be in pull,push configuration. Is there will be any dramaticly performence drop?

[Dechomai]

@Xardas955 I really wouldn't know if there would be a performance drop. CFM (cubic feet per minute) doesn't really count when using a rad cooler...static air pressure (SAP)is what matters. The Megaflow stock fans have more cfm, but less sap than the Scythe fans. You certainly CAN use the stock 200mm fans and I would guess they would be sufficient, but not quite as much as using some good 120mm fans as the pull fans. Perhaps someone will come along who has tried that configuration.

Is that a wedding ring?

[Xardas955]

@ownTer yeah i would but i already have two 200mm red led fans of the top and I dont want to change them.. well i gues i will have to use push pull under those fans...

[ownTer]

I would have ditched that silly ram cooling to make room for the rad and push pull inside the tower. The air flow created by the 4 fans on the rad would cool everything just fine im sure. That is unless you have crazy OC on your ram.

[ownTer]

@Xardas955 Using bigger than 120mm will result in poor temps. As the air will sucked from the outside edges of the rad, because the fan is larger than the rad its self. Get a couple 120mm fans. They are cheap.

Dude overclock your CPU to see how much more it cools the system coz at such low clock ofc it wont be much different

I would have made a new fuckin video lollll
