Great build viper1982! Sorry to hear about your H60. Hopefully the H100 will be less problematic for you.

Right now I'm doing push pull with the GT's pushing and the stock corsair pulling. I think when I get some time I'll eventually replace the stock with some more GT's. I wonder if I can plug the GT's into the block itself and still have the block control their speed :?:

^ yes you can plug in all aftermarket fans into the corsair block, and still have control of speed etc .. so long as the connection is the same .. it's all gravy :D ( i'm already doing this FYI .. )

Uhm, why would you. They are, like i said, dead silent. Just let them run at max speed.
+ you dont have a bunch of extra wires running over your motherboard to the cpu block, witch infects the looks.

Sow, i got the H100 installed now. What a difference. Just about no noise.
I did however connected it wrong the first time. I took off the molex connector to route the cable.
And the cable being all black, i forgot how to put the connector back on. Rookie mistake :oops:
So the first test whent tragic, sped up to 91*C in seconds.
Then i found out my mistake and corrected it. Now it holds steady on 29*C idle and about 46*C on full load.

I did have to do some modding to get it installed. The radiator touched the top heatsink of the mobo.
That was quickly delt with using a dremel :D It voided my warrenty, but who cares.

Pics will be up tommorow, but here's a little pic of the temps @ full load, no overclock (yet ;) )

Another one I see used a lot by others is Real Temp, you maybe could try that as well for a comparison ;)
