Aurora R6 - Upgrade stock CPU cooler
Hi All,
I've looked around and couldn't find a definitive answer/solution... What liquid coolers are compatible with the Aurora R6? I am in process of upgrading PSU to 850w and would also like to upgrade from the stock air cooler. Have i7-7700 and GTX 1080.
I've seen some people suggest the Corsair H60 but from what I've read (and maybe I misunderstood), it either seems like not a perfect fit or very complicated.
Has anyone had success with this upgrade? Thanks in advance!

Edit: I know it needs a 120mm aio but I want to ensure the liquid cooler that I get will fit/come with everything needed.

I just installed a h75 in my aurora r6. with oc to 5.2ghz my temps never go over 75C. I used both fans but had to install it with only one and then install the other one on the bottom side from inside the case. It was really simple since the mb has threaded mounts in it and already has a backplate. I just connected both fans to exhaust and in the command center i did a custom fan curve on exhaust fan set to ambient temp

That's actually an awesome idea! No problem with space?
