hi all,

my current specs of my pc are
cpu: Intel Core i5 2500K 3.3GHz Socket 1155 6MB Cache Retail Boxed Processor
motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3-B3 Socket 1155
case: NZXT Source 210 USB 3.0 Mid Tower Chassis with 1x 120/140mm Fan - Elite Black

my question is will the Hydro Series™ H100i Extreme Performance CPU Cooler be compatible with the above and will it fit in my case?

corsair themselves were not helpful in any way and im getting desperate.

thanks in advance

Well it looks like the case will support a double fan radiator on the top. You need to measure the clearance of the motherboard within the case compared to the w/d/l of radiator.

I would say it looks like it might work but I would check all dimensions myself if I was you.

Who said that an aircooling can't handle OC ? :D

- The D14 is just the best pick for OC ;)
- The Thermalright Macho is excellent for a budget solution also, between an Hyper 212 Evo and a NH D14
