Hey guys! Kinda new to all of this so bear with me here. I just recently got all my parts for my PC that I am building and am at the part where I am installing my liquid cooler. It's a Corsair H90 Liquid cooler and I was super excited to put it into my NZXT Phantom PHAN-001WT tower. Unfortunately, the fan that comes with it is a 140 mm fan that doesn't fit on the rear vent where the stock fan originally was. I guess I have a couple questions here.
I don't plan on overclocking so do I really need a liquid cooler?
If I decide to install this, is there anyway that I can still use the H90 liquid cooler? I see that the top has a 140 mm fan so I could maybe install it through there and run it through the lint vent that is right next to it. I'm just trying to see if I can get any use out of the H90 cooler that I've got. I'm kind of skeptical of having the radiator and stuff on the top of my tower.
Last question. If there was no way for me to be able to use the H90, what series would be right for the tower that I have? It looks like the H55 would be my best bet, as I have an AMD motherboard and the H50 only supports Intel motherboards.
*Edit* The fan on the H55 cooler is a 120mm fan
