Hey everyone, does anyone know if the Corsair h80i water cooling will fit inside the hydro air by evga? I know the radiator is only for 1 fan so i thought it should fit one of the dual fans on the hydro air. But if anyone knows please let me know or any other water cooling system that will fi on the hydro air.

First to clarify, are you using the EVGA Hadron Air, or the EVGA Hadron Hydro? There doesn't appear to be a "hydro air", so I'll assume you meant Hadron Air..

Following the links that EVGA provided, it says, "NOT compatible with aftermarket all in one water coolers" for the Hadron Air:
http://www.evga.com/support/faq/afmmain.aspx?faqid=59439

As you can see, the Hadron Hydro says, "Compatible with all in one water coolers, (single 120mm radiator) Example: Corsair H80/H60".
Not to mention, "Compatible with many aftermarket DIY water cooling kits. EVGA will sell a certified kit separately".

I have zero knowledge of this case (or any mini ITX case for that matter), but I hope I was of some help.

Let us know!

I actually got both the Hadron Air and the H80i for my new rig and after a couple days of trying different angles I ended up putting the radiator on the top exterior of the case. It's somewhat similar to how it would be installed on the Hadron Hydro. It doesn't look as great as I had hoped but the H80i does a pretty great job even if your OC'ing your CPU which I'm assuming you are.

Warning: If you are going to attempt to get the Corsair H80i to fit into the Evga Hadron Air, be prepared to make some modifications to the case.

if you are not afraid of modding your case the H80i will easily fit in the front of the case where the hard drive cage is if you remove the cage, which requires removing the front case cover and drilling out the rivets. scary I know, but you can then take the front cover somewhere to be modded with a nice custom hole/vent to allow air through the front. the H80i will fit perfectly up front and EVGA already provided the vent holes to do this. It's not as hard as you think, you just gotta take that leap to chop up your cute case, which in the end will look waay slicker anyway. also not you will need to mod a custom mount for your HDD/SSDs and forget about the optical drive. makes for way better cable management too. :)
