So, I'm in a bit of a jiffy. I've got a Cooler Master Elite 130 and my original plan was to slap a Corsair H80i GT on a 7700k inside that case and call it a day.
This is not my build but it shows the layout pretty well. Just imagine me trying to put an H80i in it.
(Also replace the 2.5" drive on the bottom with a 3.5" - I can't have two fans on a dual rad, just one)
However, with the PSU right over the waterblock, it needs flexible hoses. The H80i has anything but flexible tubes; they are so thick that they broke off from me trying.
An RMA later and I'm stuck with an H80i v2 and the same situation.
So, I ask you all: Which 120mm liquid cooler would you recommend? I've never tried any except the H80i and loved the hell out of its performance. Is there one similar but just with more flexible tubes out there? Should I just get an H60 and call it a day?
