Thread Starter 
I'm torn between getting a Corsair H80 or a Antec Kuhler 920.
Mobo will be a ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 and the case is a Antec 900.

A buddy of mine came across a link about someone putting a H100 in the 2 front case fans but I'm not sure if that would requice modding anything

I'd go for the Corsair simply on how awesome their warranty is in the unlikely case of faults.

From what I can tell about the case you could put the H100 where the front two fans are with out any cutting, but you will loose all of the 3.5" bays.
Edit: I found pictures here.
If you don't mind loosing the HDD space I would go for the H100, otherwise I'd get the H80.

Debating on the 920 or the H100 just cause it would dissipate more heat but I'd loose the 6 drive bays
