    Question 3XS Z87 Nanu GTX - with Corsair quiet fans?

    Hi,

    I'm thinking of ordering the 3XS Z87 Nanu GTX, upgraded with an Intel Core i7 4770K, Haswell, 3.5GHz - overclocked up to 4.2GHz. For CPU cooling I'd like to go with the Corsair H100i. I'm also planning on adding the 3GB EVGA GTX 780 SC ACX graphics card.

    If all the case and radiator fans are replaced with Corsair AF/SP quiet series fans, will this provide enough cooling for the system?

    I'd like things to be as quiet as possible for this configuration, but I don't want to compromise system stability.

    Thanks,
    Matt

    Interesting, I have gone with the same build apart from using just the stock 3GB EVGA 780 card. I did not see an option on the customization page to change to quiet fans, though I am assuming the radiator and psu fans are already quiet versions from the Corsair product pages.

    It's not on the configuration page, but I was hoping that I could just ask for them to be installed. I ordered a system from Scan before and they were pretty flexible with additional requests.

    If you can't see exactly what you want on the configurator we're always happy to install an alternative for you. One of our tech team will just need to make sure its compatible (shouldn't be a problem with fans), and your order can be amended.

    Having now received my 3XS 787 Nanu GTX:

    Rear case fan, the nosiest fan, on reflection I would have liked a quieter fan.
    Front case fan, this is ether not connected, or has no need to turn on!
    H100i radiator fans, quiet.
    GeForce GTX 780 (standard), quiet.
