Guys wanna buy a H100i for my 2600k.. presently using a cm hyper n620..wanna change bcos the n620 is too big and I wanna compact looking solution.. Its available on flipkart for Rs 7700..Budget not a constraint.. Just wanna find out whether there is any chance of leakage in closed loop solutions.. How reliable are hydro series from corsair? anyone in forum using them and what temps can I expect in h100i on 2600k at stock and overclock in Indian conditions?

Also planning to buy a GTX 980 once it launches.. Have a GTX 770 right now.. Wanna use GTX 980 as main card and GTX 770 as a dedicated PhysX Card.. Worth it?

Last time I've checked, Swiftech H220 was available here. Standard warning: its handled by Tirupati.

I heard H100's bundled fans are not quiet. might be the same for H100i if its the same bundled fans. Take a look at CM Seidon 240L, NZXT X60, Thermaltake Water 2.0 (standard warning: very new entry and I have certain reservations with the management).

Is there a risk of leakage in h100i? how reliable is it?

There's always a risk of leakage when you are going with water cooler whether its closed or otherwise. Just google and you will find it.
There's some really good air coolers in the market which provide equivalent cooling when compared to water coolers, the only drawback is they can be huge.

What's wrong with Tirupati?

The chance for a leakage is really low.... but overall H100i is a good product but if your cabinet can take it go for H105 it has thicker rad and has better cooling.
Also I have heard in some forum ( TOM's HArdware) if you can prove that a leakage from Corsair AIO caused damage Corsair paid for the replacement of those parts. That was the US though.
