I had two water cooling units from Gamer storm, they worked fine for about a week, and the replacement for that 4 days. looking at getting a H90.. 140m rad/fan.

has any one used any of the Corsair hydro in 120 or 140 on this case? Whats the tube configuration like. Had a hard time getting the tubes to sit comfortably in my case with the gamer storm.

Note: i have 3 AF120 fans on the top of the case, water cooling is A NECESSARY ITEM for me, because with out it my stock AMD cooler, wont cut it and any game i play sends one of my fans into 6k RPM, which then makes this nasty buzzing noise. Point of this is i cant use a 240 etc, had to be 120 or 140, which brings me to the main topic, has anyone done it and how did it go?

Ideally the wider the radiator surface then the bigger its cooling capacity, this radiator core width compensate high (noisy) RPM fans, so a 240mm All In One cooler such as Corsair H100.
There're many video tutorial on this, steps are:
- remove current CPU coolers > clean thermal grease residue > apply new thermal grease (one grain or one line)
- mount CPU water block, secure the screw + backplate + rubber whaser
- If you use Corsair H90 you can mount on top or rear as exhaust (blowing air out)
- Connect 4 pin pump to CPU_Fan header + 4pin fan to CPU_Opt header on your motherboard
- Start > enter BIOS > make sure pump and fan are detetcted > save and exit BIOS > logon to windows
Later you can fine tune your AIO to suite your CPU temp...

Later you can fine tune your AIO to suite your CPU temp and noise level, my experience with 140mm rad is still too loud to cool +160watt CPU, your case can support 280mm rad such as NZXT X62 or Hydro H115 so for the sake of quietness you should get bigger AIO.
