Do your homework

This is a very nice cooler but requires a lot of leg work both to install and to operate. The weakest thing about this product isn't the product itself, it's the installation instructions and even worse, the software. The installation instructions are vague and fail to include instructions for their own cases, which allow you to place the fans in the upper enclosure allowing the cooler to fit where it might not otherwise depending on your motherboard. Plan to do your homework during your install. As for the software, it's really horrible. It's not intuitive. Setting up your temp. warnings is difficult and useless unless you're looking at the unit to see the color. Even setting the speed takes some digging. I hope they upgrade this software and firmware upgrade process soon. Also, a USB header to USB connector adapter would be huge as tieing up a whole header isn't always an option for everyone. Overall a fair product.

Great value!

Keeps Haswell 4770k nice and cool under ambient temps.. Case Corsair 200R Gigabyte Z87-D3HP board

Cheaply made

Very noisy . Not enuf info about installing .

fell a part before install

putting new system together unit just sitting on the table. The hose blew off the the cpu cooler side! The coolant went every where. 12 feet to my right, hitting my daughter in another room, the ceiling took some, and 10 feet to my left also got wet. Not to mention my new biuld also received a bath! JUNK

Good cooler, really loud

I bought this to overclock my AMD FX-6100 (my first build) and it's really loud. It won't show up on Corsair link and it's really annoying, and 2 of the long screws wouldn't work when I mounted the fans onto the radiator. But after all the trouble and noise this thing performs well, so I gave it a 5 in performance. But seriously, I thought this thing was supposed to be quiet!!!

excellent for the Intel LGA 2011 CPU's here

two suggestions; 1 - for the mfg? offer an optional kit to extend the length of the coolant lines. sometimes, the standard lines aren't really long enough to allow the builder to place the Corsair unit in the ideal position. 2 - for the assembler builder? I suggest you consider plugging in all the small control wires BEFORE you connect the cooler block to your CPU die. reason? the plugs go into the cooling block on the sides of the block and are virtually hidden from a top view or inspection perspective. I've had to resort to medical angle mirrors and micro led lights to see where the plugs were, and orient the small control wire plugs the correct way. I do this now on all Corsair coolers.

Awesome Water Cooler

I bought this All-In-One Water Cooler for my first build to cool the Intel Core i5 3570K. I have not overclocked yet and the Corsair Link software as well as the MSI Click Bios show the CPU temp at 27 degree Celsius. The Water Cooler was easy to mount in my case and it works without problems.

Good non-custom water solution

I bought this to cool an Intel i7 3930k for my new build until I could afford a custom water loop and I am fairly happy with the results. At stock speed, my 3930k was kept in the mid-50s (celsius) while running a few hours of prime95 blend torture test. After overclocking my CPU to 4.25Ghz, the H100i was still able to keep up and kept temperatures in the mid- to high-60s during prime95. The only problems I noticed were that Corsair Link caused BSOD when used with my Asus Rampage IV Extreme. To work around this, I just used Corsair Link to set my fan speed and then deleted Corsair Link from my computer and pulled the internal USB cable. No more BSOD and a USB header being put to better use. The Hydro series by Corsair is a great entry-level water cooling system for those who aren't too sure about doing their own loops but for people like me, they are only a stopping off point to true water cooling.

Even better than gen 1

I had the first generation model of this in a previous build and this version is even better. I have an environment that is very hot, so controlling internal temps is a challenge, and with this solution, I've never had a problem. Frankly can't imagine going back to a standard cooler, this one is so quiet.

Never regret getting this

This was my first LCS and i will never go back to fans only again! only problem with this is that the book says the fans come with an arrow indicating air flow directions however there is no arrow. 1 8 minute call to corsair was all it took. SUPER QUIET, MAX COOLING
