You know those 'AF' fans are not meant to be used on the H100 radiator, they are just (high airflow) case fans, you really should be using 'SP' (static pressure) fans for proper cooling on the H100 radiator. 👍

This.
Yes High Static Pressure fans are expensive., but worth it.
And take your time when getting static pressure fans.
Some claim to be high but are not that high.
Look at the mmH2O reading.
The higher the better.

Yes I used to have some High Static Pressure fans. Did some testing and saw a 1 degree change in CPU temps while being louder. So I just decided to go with the AF fans that I have for aesthetics and acoustics. It's in my room so I need it to look awesome and be quiet so it works fine for me.

Which SP fans did you use?

Your fans are the AP120 Quite which has a max static pressure of 0.75mmH2O
The Craptua has a max static pressure of 2.61mmH2O
The Corsair SP120 has a max static pressure of either 1.29mmH2O for the quite or 3.1mmH2O for the performance
The EK Furious Vardar F5 has a max static pressure of 5.81mmH2O
But that aside, I would work on that little micro nest of cables.

Well, let's do a recap on my rigs:
This is my first PC. Just a retail HP with an added GPU. As mentioned in previous post a couple of years ago, the specs are:
-Intel i5 4430 @3.0
-12GB Ram
-EVGA GTX 750ti
-Anything else is just the normal stuff you get on a brand computer. This PC is still running. Currently being abused by my roommate.
-Being used with an HP IPS 22 inch non-gaming monitor.
This is my first custom gaming rig. I love this thing. Taught me so much on computers. I got it about... two years ago? Still have it, still use it. It was built with maximum performance in mind, for the smallest budget possible, that is why it has a bunch of basic parts. Specs:
-Corsair Carbide Spec 02
-ASUS Z170-F
-EVGA Supernova bronze 750w
-i5 6600k Overclocked to 4.2GHz
-Coolermaster tower air-cooler (not sure the model)
-Crucial DDR4 ram kit @2133. 8(x2), 4(x1) for a total of 20gb
-EVGA GTX 970, later upgraded to an EVGA GTX 1070
-ASUS ODD
-Seagate 2tb HDD
-Used with an ASUS 24 inch 144hz 1m/s 1080p gaming monitor
And this is my latest rig. As some might have seen already, I created a new thread asking for advice on how to build a PC myself. It's been almost a month, and after a few mistakes, a broken GPU on arrival, going over budget and long waits, I finally have it with me. This PC was built not only for maximum power within budget, but also aesthetics in mind. Specs:
-Corsair Crystal 460x
-ASUS Rog Strix Z370-E
-i5 8600k super mild overclock, 4.3GHz Turbo Frequency permanently locked on all 6 cores.
-Watercooled CPU by a Corsair H100i V2
-G.Skill Trident Z 16gb DDR4 kit @3000mhz
-MSi GTX 1080ti Gaming X(formerly an EVGA 1080ti SC2 which was unfortunately DOA)
-Crucial MX 500 (500gb) SSD
-Seagate 1tb HDD
-EVGA Supernova Gold 750w
Running on a Dell 24 inch 165hz, 1m/s , G-Sync,1440p gaming monitor.
