Corsair H100i RGB Platinum AIO CPU Cooler Review
Pricey
Released far too close to the previous generation
£90 is a lot of money for a cooler
The included SP120L fans are loud
Average thermal performance
Very loud under load
Many cables to manage
Not the quietest cooler tested
The CPU block cover could be a little more open
To improve illumination further
More expensive than other 240mm liquid CPU coolers.
Much like the H110i GT this H100i GTX is showing more muscle compared to its predecessor, it does show excellent performance in terms of cooling - especially in overclocked conditions. As you have been able to notice from the results, we started using a ...
Looks great, Sleek new pump design, Fit and finish are top tier, Performance is great, Priced well
New pump design is difficult to handle during installation
If I had to say anything bad about this cooler it would be in regard to the functionality of the new pump design. While I am pleased with the way the pump looks, I found that the lack of swivel fittings on the side of the pump combined with the large tubi...
Corsair Link provides selection of cooling performance and fan noise, Excellent cooling performance, Easy assembly and mounting, Preapplied thermal paste, Only one fan header needed for full system
CPU block attachment requires attaching standoffs to motherboard, A bit loud in Performance mode
With the addition of the Corsair Link capability, the new H100i GTX cooler is an excellent choice for an all in one cooling system that provides easy access to cooling performance options. In addition to the functional update, the radiator styling has bee...

Corsair's H100i GTX (Model # CW-9060021-WW) most certainly doesn't look like its older sibling, but that is far from a bad thing as this cooler looks significantly better. Corsair updated the aesthetics of the GTX, gave us a slightly thicker radiator, and...

With the completion of the H100i GTX review we've now concluded our reviews of the new additions to the Corsair AIO cooler family. With its rounded end tanks and absent 90 degree rotation elbows at the cold plate, the 240mm radiator based H100i GTX share...

For anyone who is an enthusiast the price chart shouldn't come as a surprise. The cost of water cooling loops will always be more than a good air cooler. It's up to you to determine if the added performance is worth the price of admission.The H100i is a v...

Abstract: Remember the time when liquid cooling a computer chip was considered to be an extreme approach, one performed by hardcore enthusiasts and overclockers alone? Everything had to be personally designed and or procured by the user, as there were no specialize...
