I'm new and this water cooler concerns me a bit. Not the installation but if it's gonna be compatible with my case. I'm really set on the Corsair Graphite 230T because of its features but I also look at the Fractal Design Define R4 and I love the sound proofing and the Corsair 750D also catches my eye. I'm torn as to what case I should get. If I can install it on the 230T I would need some help because there's not many professional videos with the 230T and H100i.
