H100i and SP120s

[Davidthewin]

I have a h100i and I'm going to be buying a few more fans soon for airflow inside my case so it's the perfect opportunity to swap out the stock h100i fans that came with it. Question is, is it worth it though? Running a 3570k in a Vengeance C70 so push pull isn't an option and I don't currently have the processor overclocked, but I plan to in the near future. I can't seem to find any videos with the h100i fitted with SP120s though so I was wondering if anyone knew where I could read some reviews.

Also since my computer sits on the desk right to the left of me (not by choice, university desk attached to the wall) would I be better off going for the quiet edition or not? When these fans ramp up to about 1500rpm I can really hear them going, although idle at 800 is quiet enough.

Depends what you want to do, its not worth connecting different fans up to the H100i itself, you are better off wiring them direct to the PSU and using fan speed reducers.

The only difference in the fans is the coloured rings and the speeds they can spin.

Oh, I completely forgot they were the same fans. Isn't using Corsair Link to control the fan speed better than wiring them to the PSU?
