advise on Jonsbo UMX4

[waway625]

I have an x99 mobo. Will the Corsair H115i fit on top without clashing with my mobo? If it does, are there other ways of fitting an AIO cooler (preferrably Corsair as I like the look) on this case?

this is my Mobo

Full spec of the components are

5820K
Asus X99-A USB 3.1 size (30.5 cm x 24.4 cm)
4x4Gb Gskill DDR4
GTX 1080 Founders ed (currently on a 970 but buying a GTX1080)
Creative Soundblaster Z soundcard
Seasonic X750 size 150 mm (W) x 160 mm (L) x 86 mm (H)
1 HDD
2 SSD
No optical Drive

Thanks!

previously tested out with a Jonsbo UMX4 but cant fit in my ID Cooling 240mm rad as it hit heatsink on the mobo.

Will strongly recommend you use air cooler if you want to use this case, or use a h80i

Thanks.was the overlap a lot?i read the jonsbo cN only have up to 27mm rad? Is it possible to mount the rad at the bottom?

Thanks again

yes it is alot. i will strongly recommend not to take the risk.
Mounting of rad at the bottom is not recommended. that was supposed to be the part where cold air enters the case

Thanks. I look for other cases then. Such a nice case =( too bad

Use air cooler.


Or risk it with your rad + those slim profile fan (15mmish)

If your rad alone is more than 25mm thick. You can forget about it altogether.

If he is overclocking the 5820k, not good to go for air cooling. It is darn hot at 4.5ghz lol.

Not unless ts want to go lower frequency.

Bro what model is you 240 cooler?

 

[poooooo]

Radiator dimensions: 140mm x 312mm x 26mm
Fan dimensions: 140mm x 25mm

Rad 27mm + fan 25mm = max 52mm thickness allowed for top.
you may try this but its freaking tight, suggest u might wants to change to slim profile fans.

ocn forum jonsbo thread ,theres a few guy manage to squeeze their rad to the top, you might wants to look through it and ask for better advise.

or the biggest air cooler that i can fit into it is cryorig h5.

still manageable, but its not something that im comfortable with if im using it 24/7

Thanks. I really like the case

Im currently on an ft02 and seidon 120v plus

I like closes loops coolers because i dont have to worry having a heavy cooler hanging from my mobo

I used to use a true120 and xigmatek cooler on my past rigs and sometimes moving them gets scary due to the weight

The slim silverstone,is it widely available in sls shops? If its really troublesome i may consider ft05 (and h80i) or corsAir 400c lol

not sure about silverstone, have you look at the new corsair 460x(top mount rad), and also nzxt s340 elite(front mount rad)? both are good compact cases with tempered glass. they look really cool too.

Update

I checked,jonsbo only got space for 2x120mm so confirm h115 cannot as it is 280mm rad

Only option is the h100 (240x27) so im re thinking my options now
