Okay, just so you know I have NO experience with this, but it seems like you'd want your h100 to be intake only. This would guarantee that the coldest air is being blown through the radiator first. With one intake and one exhaust, it seems like hot air could possibly be heating the liquid going to the cpu. I dunno. I'm putting together my H100 rig this weekend and have thought WAY too much about it.

This is true. However then I'd have the hottest air coming right into my case increasing the overall case temps which to me would be worse for other components. I figured this way I get more of a 50/50 compromise.But I guess I'll have to wait until I get my 670 to really see how much the H-100 fan placements affects it.

I'm putting together my H100 rig this weekend and have thought WAY too much about it.

Not that I speak for Yoshi ... and I dunno that we've ever directly discussed the subject ... but we're generally like-minded so I'm gonna do it anyways. Hope he doesn't mind thumb.gif

FIrst off, a 'push/pull' configuration is not 'one intake/one exhaust' in terms of the relation of the cooler to the case. It is always either 'intake' or 'exhaust'. In our cases, all our CPU cooler fans are working as exhaust fans. Just so that's clear thumb.gif

The strategy that me and Yoshi are deploying involves purposefully pumping so much fresh, cool air into the case that the temp of the air hitting the intake of the CPU cooler isn't really much warmer than what it would be drawing in actual fresh air from outside it.

Furthermore, our rads are at the top of our cases, and it's generally not a good idea to blow warm air down from a physics standpoint.

Lastly, we are just as concerned about our GPU temps as we are about CPU temps, thus we'd prefer to never be purposefully blowing ANY hot air INTO our cases. We are willing to sacrifice perhaps a couple of degrees of CPU temps in order to not heat up other components by having our rad fans be set up as intakes.

Does it all make sense now?

Yeah I have my H100 in the same Corsair 500R case with the same configuration. Corsair actually recommends to have the rear fan on intake in a H100 exhaust configuration. So I have two front, one bottom, the 240mm side, and the rear fans all on intake. The H100 is on top of the case just under the removable grill, with two fans inside the case at the top pulling air from the case and exhausting through the rad (I'm using Cougar 120mm fans for the H100 and for the rear and bottom ... excellent fans).

Even after a heavy gaming session when I hold my hand over the top exhaust grill the air is still pretty frosty and my CPU temps are very good. I understand the idea of pulling cool air through the RAD, but I decided on this configuration to keep the rest of my components cooler, not just the CPU. It's also pretty dust friendly, after putting a filter on the rear intake fan. The only un-filtered fan in my setup is the 240mm side fan, but I'm hoping all that positive pressure will make that a non-issue.

2-3 weeks? I wonder if it will be basically the same everywhere. If so, that's a long time between pre-order availability (in countries other than USA) and actual availability. I'll wait! rolleyes.gif

That matches with what J&R has reported to some people - they said 2-3 weeks from now.

I'm waiting for the DCII TOP but if the price is ~ $450 then I would reconsider the purchase and just get a reference GTX 680 for $50 more. Decisions, decisions...
