Hello I really need some help because of all the mixed answere i got from my question on a different forum please help and i will be very greatful!
so i have nearly canceled my order but i don't know if these Fans are compatible with the Corsair H100I.

Will my fans i ordered work? - I ordered the Newegg SP120 High Performance Fans PWM 4pin.
- Link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181040

But the H100I Comes with these grey ones -
http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-series-h80i-h100i-sp120l-2700-rpm-replacement-fan

Would i need to buy these accessories i need help.
The people at the linus tech tips forums are confusing the heck out of me by saying yes/no.

Hydro Series H100i Cable Kit - Does the H100I come with two " L " - Y Cable for fans meaning i can hook up 4 fans or would i need to buy this cable kit to do so. - http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-series-h100i-h80i-cable-kit

Lastly do i need this Hydro Series Fan Mounting Screw Kit - http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-series-fan-mounting-screw-kit


EDIT : Are the fans i chose just fine - SP120 PWM High performance http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181040

Or do i need to cancel them an order the ones on corsair.com the Hydro Series H80i/H100i SP120L 2700 RPM Replacement PWM Fan http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-series-h80i-h100i-sp120l-2700-rpm-replacement-fan

Ah it's very spacious, yes you can have push/pull radiators at the top. The fan at the rear end would just be just over flush with the edges of the rear exhaust fan

You can see here, there would be just enough space between rear exhaust and rear fan under the radiator

They are just fine, the one that come on the h100i are pretty much the same they just don't come with the rings. Just a note though the high performance ones are really loud, even when you set it to quite through corsair link they still do about 1800 rpms. But I guess it is just personal preference though. Whenever I buy fans I always get the quite edition or the NF-F12s from noctua they never go over 1500rpm and they stay nice and quite, the corsair performance ones sound like a shop vac.

I got the high performance edition because the ones with the cooler also say high performance fans an someone on the linus tech tips told me i had to get the same edition and not the quiet editions,

The ones with the cooler go up to 2700rpm an these blue ones are 2300rpm?

The main reason people replace stock fans on closed loop water kits is because they are generally noisier than what you can replace them with and so prefer to replace with quieter fans which may also be higher performance per decibel of noise too.
You chose SP (static pressure) those are just fine.
Ideally, you won't be running the fans at full speed, unless you don't mind the excessive noise created by them. The reason people go for noctua is they know they're getting more cooling performance for much quieter than anything else running at the same speed. The reason they don't choose noctua? more costly and aesthetically "ugly"

Thanks, Couldn't afford noctua,
Chose the corsair SP because from you tube videos over the years i seen people mention SP more then the other.
The other are nice fans but their expensive.
Only chose the H100I because it was on sale, First choice was CM 212 EVO.

Do you think the H100I an push pull will fit?

I will mess around with it but since i havent gotten case or parts delivered then ill ask haha.
So cooler and fan on bottom part of the metal top then fans on top - Only if it doesn't fit on top.

Yeah I went over budget too after an expensive mouse and keyboard and settled for Corsair Quiet Edition SP/AF 140/120's

Don't know which case you have to suggest weather or not push pull would fit but if it's a full tower, most likely would. just measure up the dimesnions
