looks good,
Those fans are actually best for liquid coolers, so when you get a new cooler, whack them on it!
also, rotate the bottom fan, so its intaking into the system.
for case fans, these ones would be better suited.

Have you thought of christmas tree lights with a fairy on the top. :yes:
These fans look awesome. I'm thinking about replacing the stock fan on my titan with either this or a noctua as the current fan is a wee bit noisy
yeah defo get some decent paste mate
Get some good cleaner,. i use this... in fact a few guys on here do.

or you can get it with MX 5,

OR, use noctua thermal paste, which I do and find it very very good!

so, yeah clean off the old paste from the cpu, using the cleaner/purifier then the same on the cpu block. I use a microfiber cloth.
I dont know much about your case, but do you have two 120mm fan slots up top? if so, go for the H100I, then put your two corsair fans on that. and if there is room, add another two corsair fans for push pull, but this would depend upon how much space is available.
H80 I is great, but i think it blocks quite a large portion of your motherboard, so you cant see it.
then get some tasty ram
Thanks! I'd already selected the Arctic Silver 5 - so it's reassuring to see you recommend it!
Alas no, I only have 1x120mm slot in the top - I guess to have any more might make the case too noisy thus undermining the whole 'silencio' part of it!
Yeah I haven't even started to look at RAM yet. Do you think I will need to upgrade my PSU if I plan to add this cooler/RAM/Lights in the future?
best thing you could do with the drive cage, - lower the hard drives into the lowest slots, then remove any parts of the cage do allow air to flow unobstructed.
I wonder, do you think it is possible to install the H80i at the front of the case where the HDD cage was?
