I was wondering if the corsair af140mm QE would be able to keep the h115i cool enough if the were placed inwards of the case because im currently going with a white theme and I enjoy their aesthetics with the white bands and was wondering if the af120mm QE version of it would work for the evga 980ti hybrid cooler too. Thanks! And if not what fan would work best!

1| The AF series of fans is an abbreviation for Air Flow while SP's are an abbreviation for Static Pressure which is what you should be looking for when shopping for fans meant for radiators(or in essence for watercooling)
2| Corsair make 140mm fans in their SP range but to note, they tend to go out in typical style. Rattling noises and then eventual failure or noisy fan motors or worse fan blades broken as they brush up against the fan housing while it will also be stated by users that the QE's are in fact LE(loud edition) fans (pun intended with a hint of sarcasm since I own a set and don't like them).

If you're a fan of aesthetics, might I suggest you look into Thermaltake's Riing LED fans in a color of your choice? Don't go for the...

Don't go for the RGB 3 fan pack as the bundled controller bypasses the temperature signals and any temp oriented control you may want to take advantage of when running it off your motherboard.

3| The EVGA Hybrid cooler is a 120mm radiator assembly, so you'll need to look for SP rated fans in 120mm dimensions.

Suggestions for fans:
EK Vardar
Noiseblocker E-Loop or Multiframe
Swiftech Helix
Bitfenix Spectre Pro
