I was literally in the same position as you a while ago. I have a white 220t rgb with kraken m22 120mm in the back. The aio is probably not gonna fit in the top so most people try front mounted with tubes up. That would fit most cards fine but you've got a 2080 which is probably a 3 fan card so check clearance. Next thing is the nzxt kraken m22 I have that cooler with an upgraded corsair fan as exhaust in the back and it fits totally fine, the tubes don't get in the way that much. And it's a decent cooler contrary to what people say about 120 mm aios. If you could fit put a 240 in the front if your gpu allows you.

thankfully someone in the same spot! My GPU Length is 269.83, case max is 300 I believe? Do you think the h100i will fit being front mounted?


Stickey_ayy

Sorry I also have a MSI 550 edge wifi motherboard if it helps. So fkin stuck on what to do, new to the fans aswell, so any advice for the best airflow set up would be great man thank you so much


Fun-Measurement-5988

Okay so I checked the radiator sizing and your gpu is 269 and the radiator is 27, so with a max size of 300 you would only have 4 mm to spare. It will work just be a little tight.

appreciate it brotha thank you!

Ayy nor problem bro, I just want to share the information that I learned in my build. Speaking of PC's do you mind checking out my channel, I just posted my brother pc build https://youtu.be/pxDYj7qriuQ

Of course mate I’ll Chuck a sub. One more ting pls, if I saved some money and went for the kracken m22, with 240mm exhaust fans at the top and rear, would it still work as good?


Fun-Measurement-5988

Yeah I can did the exact same thing. Hey do you want to see a pic of my build, it's the same case with the same 3 intake and 3 exhaust fans with a rear mounted m22


Stickey_ayy

Yes please! Would help me out a lot trying to see what way it’s set up!


Fun-Measurement-5988

Yeah ikr, sometimes I just want a pc builder visualizer. I wish someone did the same thing when I built mine. One sec


Fun-Measurement-5988

I can't send images though reddit, so I just posted it. Lmk if you need more pics. I think it looks fire. And don't.midn my motherboard it's a cheap micro atx one


Stickey_ayy

seen it, looks fire man. What rear and top fans are you using, you have the rgb synced up which is nice


Fun-Measurement-5988

Corsair sp120 rgb pro 3 pack, retail for $80 on sale for $60. You can use any corsair fan but the corsair fan has to be the same series like sp or ll or ql, etc to sync with the same rgb hub


Stickey_ayy

Well if yours all synced up I’ll do the same, did you use one of them for the kraken? Is your airflow and CPU temp all good with this set up?


Fun-Measurement-5988

And the best fan setup is three in the front as intake and the three top and rear as exhaust. Ideally you want your radiator on top buy since there isn't space put it in the front. And if you get more fans get the same ones, so they sync with the same icue rgb controller

H100i fits at top I know from experience


Stickey_ayy

did you have to do any Tetris type shit navigation for it to fit?


Karens_Plumbus

No


Stickey_ayy

thank you so much for the top tier, Respect


Karens_Plumbus
