The H100i is not recommended for a expandable AIO. The CoolerMaster Glacer 240L is a expandable AIO, the pump can handle 2 or more blocks, the 240 rad is on the thin side, you'll need lot of air flow or a larger rad (thicker or 360)

I have a 240l with a bay res, cpu and gpu EK blocks cooled with a BLACK ICE 240 rad. Make sure what ever 290x you buy that a block is available for it.
