H100 Cooler position inside case? Which case?

[jujubee]

I have a H100i mounted on the inside top pulling downwards according to manufacturers specs. It's in an EATX case and much to my surprise it still nudges up against the motherboard.
Thinking of completely mounting the radiator on top on the outside for better flow and space. Possibly adding another set of fans for a push pull configuration. I'm also picking up 120MM fan guards so fingers and cables don't get chopped.

Hi Morne!

We just finished building a handfull of OC nodes and the gold was stable performance but still cheap costs. Watercooling was over the budget so we chose the H100i mounted in top of a (very cheap!) Corsair Carbide 330R Midi-Tower. Works very well running 4,6 GhZ on a i7-3930K.

I am not at the office right now because of holyday here but I can snap a picture of it next week if you want.

Actually it's been a year since my original post. But anyways, I went with the 80i cooler in a carbide 500 case...
