I'm about to order a H115i from Scan, but I am not completely sure if it will fit inside my case.
Will a H115i fit in an NZXT Phantom 530?

Solution
To answer your question directly, yes, it will fit.

I always say go to the source.
From https://www.nzxt.com/products/phantom-530: Extensive liquid cooling support includes Kraken X31/X41/X61 all-in-one solutions and radiators of up to 360mm in size
From http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-series-h115i-280mm-extreme-performance-liquid-cpu-cooler: A 280mm radiator and dual SP140L PWM fans provide the extreme cooling you need for highly overclocked CPUs
Is 280mm (h115i) < 360mm (case) ? Yes it is. So it will fit.
My thing is, do you actually need one?

Where do you intend to put it ? Here's what NZXT web site says... unfortunately doesn't give dimensions on its specs page, the info prolly available somewhere tho if ya search for it. It does say that it fits 360mm .... but that is of no real use to you as that means it fits 120 x 360mm ... your chosen cooler is only 280mm long but its 140mm or more wide and there's no mention of support of anything that wide that i saw..... fits 140mm fans, but how wide is the rad ? Corsair doesn't say.

But you have the case so all you would need need is a tape measure. except for the fact that Corsair is also cheap with th especs
http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-series-h115i-280mm-extreme-performance-liquid-cpu-cooler.
In any case, I would strongly advise that you forget about the H115 and use a "real" AIO water cooling systems. The Corsair CLCs suffer from weak pumps and aluminum radiators . Depending on which one you choose, it's either the same or $10 more for ....
- All copper / brass radiator for better thermal performance
- All components of the system a custom water loop quality components pre-assembled at the factory
- You get a reservoir
- You can add your GFX card(s) to the system
- No galvanic corrosion due to mixed metals like the Corsair
- Better thermal and noise performance
- Better aesthetics
- They publish the dimensions so you can determine fit.

Both of which demolish the H115s performance

Some 140mm radiators are up to 146mm wide ... If you look at the Enthoo promo review by TheModZoo, they run into this problem in the video. Swiftech lists 140mm for theirs w/ the 1400m fans but the 120mm is 127mm
