Hello everyone! This is my first post! I hope to ask more as I am filled with questions!

Ok moving on. My current system is built into a CM Stacker 830 case. This holiday I am hoping to upgrade the Mobo to an MSI LGA1150 mobo and an i& 4790k. I would like to overclock the CPU so I am hoping that a Corsair h105 will fit with this case. The case has a door with 4 120mm fan mounts on it *links below*. I was wondering if the h105 would work with this door. And would mounting it on a door cause problems in itself? If so, what would be the next best cooler for and overclocked 4790k that is compatible with my case! Thank you for your help!

I'm not too familiar with this particular case. As you can see, your chosen cooler has a 240mm radiator which will utilize 2x120mm fans which will obviously need to be mounted side by side. Can you mount these on the door? No, as you wont be able to open the door unless you unmount the radiator and fans off the door each time which is just not practical at all.

If the case has 2x120mm fans side by side on the top or at the rear (doubt it) then yes it can be done. If it's the front, no because your tubing from your radiator wont reach the cpu.

May I suggest an NZXT phantom 530 or 630. I'm suing the NZXT 630 at the moment and I absolutely love it.
