The fans of the H100i might hit your heatsink. I have the 400R and GA-Z87X-D3H with an H100i and I have a 1-2mm between the fans and my heatsink. The pump/block and fittings don't come in contact with the ram heatsink (I also have the vengeance pro)

Measure from the top of your case to the heatsink, you will need approx. 55mm space for the rad and fans. Here's a link to the specs from Corsair: http://www.corsair.com/us/hydro-series-h100i-extreme-performance-liquid-cpu-cooler.html

If you are replacing an old CPU cooler with the H100i then all you will need to do is clean the thermal paste...

Yes it will
as on Corsair website you cabinet supports:-

Two 120mm/140mm top fan mount locations
Two side panel 120/140mm fan mount locations
Two front panel 120/140mm fan mount locations

and H100i needs 120mm (x2) space for mounting so no worries go and chill your RIG.

If you are replacing an old CPU cooler with the H100i then all you will need to do is clean the thermal paste off your CPU. The H100i comes with a high quality thermal paste pre-applied to the block.

it comes with pre applied thermal paste,
just dont forget to remove the old fan paste remaining on cpu.
start neat & clean and fit your H100i.
dont put your pump on cpu with old paste remainings.
