Corsair H105 Liquid Cooler

My H105 unboxing and review is here. This liquid cooler will (in a nutshell) make your CPU slightly more cool than an H100i and slightly less cool than an H110... It also has a bit of a different look to it and some cool PWM fans that are included :D

boohoo

[@politelyupset]

godzilla6006 Thanks for the English lesson, fixed.

[@JCorbinPhoto]

Recently installed my first custom water kit and I won't go back to air unless there are space concerns. I didn't consider a small pre-built kit like the ones from Corsair because I wasn't convinced about the performance aspect of the kit. I'm likely to put one into a build for someone else, however.

[@Laylander]

I'm using the Skythe Mugen 2 rev. B and the H100 in my systems, but aircooling does seem to perform exactly the same... Only the H100 is a little bit more quiet. So, I'm going for aircooling next time, much cheaper, better reliability.

[@zeitecsmith2875]

We really need the H100Awesome that Luke was talking about!

[@octurbojoe]

Corsair actually needs to start making "SP140" fans for radiators or future AIOs that are 140mm in size.

[@caleb5962]

Love my h105. Could not be happier. Outperformed the 212 evo I had by a long shot and looks pretty sexy doing it. Mounted on a fx8150 @4.2ghz and never rises above 37c

[@notree666]

NH-D14 here. Its huge but I never have to worry about it leaking.

[@LTT.Official]

I like the thought of these but my noctua nhd-14 works exceptionally well, and there are less points of failure on air coolers over these AIO's

[@Beef1188]

What I would like to see is a wet cooler where you wouldn't need fans at all... not to use it for overclocking, but to have a high end processor and achieve reasonable temps even under full load, completely without external fans. Is there even such a thing?

[@remnant24]

If you want your entire case to be a heatsink, yeah, but that won't be pretty, cheap, or practical. Heat has to be evacuated in some way.

[@Beef1188]

remnant24 But the radiators do that, don't they? If you have top air vents and you mount the radiators on the top, then the heat will rise and dissipate, all you would need then is to have enough surface area on the radiators themselves and let physics take care of the air flow.

[@DenverJohnBradley]

BigBadBeef what you're looking for would be mounting the radiator on the top, but on the outside. not so sure how that'd perform, but that way, it wont hinder the rest of the pc

[@remnant24]

BigBadBeef Air won't come in or out on its own. You need airflow, otherwise the heat from the components will build up inside the case. Rads transfer heat from liquid to air, they don't provide airflow. In fact, they hinder it. Which is why you need fans: to push fresh air in and hot air out.

[@DenverJohnBradley]

remnant24 yeah, fans are a part of basic PC needs. but BigBadBeef's comment was a non fan reliant cooling solution, so watercooling everything and putting the radiator(s) outside is all I can come up with.

[@davapod]

I replaced this about 18 months ago, as I wanted a 360mm aio for my new build. It is nonetheless still going strong in my nephews pc. I had a corsair H100i gtx in my other build and the pump failed a couple of months out of warranty.

[@TheMinecraftS4UCE]

Corsair 115i pared with SP140s. Amen.

[@lolshortvids]

115i?

[@SolarCarbon]

League of Legends Shorts I'm stuck with you on this one...

[@Camhin1]

Philldog123 110 with the thickness of the 105 and corsair link

[@TheMinecraftS4UCE]

Guys it happened, CES 2015.

[@kavkawasdie]

Bloody hell!! I just bought H110 yesterday :(( Ffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…………

[@fox091]

Just ordered this last night, glad to see that it performs really well.

[@EmmaCross94]

"Rocket surgery" Not sure if supposed to be "Rocket science" or "Cat surgery" Poor Rocket :(

[@wesofx8148]

Rock it, Sir Jeremy.

[@aaronbaw]

That intro is so funky, I love it.

[@theroflraptor]

Rocket surgery wat xD

[@MOJOEMOVIES]

combination of rocket science and surgery, some of the hardest things to do

[@chriselderscorner]

You know, it's like people science, where you throw people into space. Yeah, I thought it was dumb too

[@9000productions]

I've always have used air cooling. I must say I'm interested in the idea of the liquid cooling solution that I don't have to worry about maintaining, but it also makes me uneasy to introduce a liquid into a system that is not going to play nice in the event of a leak/failure. I'd like to see how reliable and lasting this product is compared to others of similar size.

[@Armfan99]

Air ftw. Sure these AIO's look cool in a windowed build but if you are a person that just wants stuff to work and last, a beefy air heatsink like a NHD-14 is just the better option imo.

[@Ultrabenbooyah]

This pretty much sums it up.

[@PimpMatt0]

I like the H100i's LED waterblock. This one looks neat too for sleeker design.

[@Twinsen]

I'm not sure to understand, you are reviewing a corsair product just after doing a payed advertising for an another corsair product? It's like corsair reviewing their own corsair products...

[@cyBorg8o7]

Currently using an H100i, may switch to this soon when I grab a 2011 socket mobo and CPU but i would like to see and H105i

[@zanduh04]

have this on mute because everyone is asleep and i can still hear that intro perfectly

[@juppsenn]

0:16 "It's not exactly rocket surgery" Best quote ever, someone make a meme out of that.

[@karigreyd2808]

Less features more cooling.

[@alexthedj]

What about noise? pump noise, fan noise at different speeds? Cooling performance at a lower, quieter setting? Currently running a NH-D14 which I find to be stupidly noisy (it makes a huge "whoosh"-sound). I'm intending to move to a Micro-ATX setup soon, and then I'll be looking at an AIO cooler.

[@brainkillz]

rocket surgery? 0:16

[@mygetrichslowplan]

A common joke. It's a combination of "rocket science" and "brain surgery," both considered to be "smart guy" professions. Jokesters like Linus will combine the two for comedic effect.

[@brainkillz]

mygetrichslowplan I had no idea lol

[@mygetrichslowplan]

brainkillz Don't worry, you are not the first person I've explained it too, I'd say it's a regional thing, but I live quite a ways from Linus, so who knows. :P

[@Sim2Real.]

they have to make expandable liquid coolers, with 45mm thickness, the easy instalation of the h100i, a really strong pump like the eisberg prestige 240l and definetly g1/4 fittings so it´s easy to expand in therms of compatibility

[@ahmadhusaini8420]

HELP! This one or Corsair H100i GTX ? Specs gonna build: 980ti with 4790k

[@ahmadhusaini8420]

Evan Reams custom loop is no no. Kinda complicated.but H105 is 10dollar cheaper. I maybe wanna find the best cooler and also bang for the buck.

[@ahmadhusaini8420]

Evan Reams ok nice and clear. Gtx will be my choice :D

[@GardevoirEx1]

+Ahmad Husaini What made you decide the GTX over this one? I can no longer see the comments you're responding to.

[@ahmadhusaini8420]

+Daniel Macías i bought kraken x61

[@pelataan69]

+Ahmad Husaini is is good im looking cooler for my i7 4790k

[@weirdoku]

Finally retired mine. Stretched out my 4670k build for as long as I could. If it wasn’t for starfield I’d still be rocking it lol.

[@hakalamiika99]

Corsair or anyone should do 360mm radiator all in one. That would be kinda cool :D

[@MrBlackRapp]

Coolermaster is making a glacer 360L, basically the big brother of the 240L. Many say that the 360L is just a re-skinned version of the swiftek h320 but cooler master claim that it is their own design.

[@fuzzurio]

Swiftech also has the H320

[@hakalamiika99]

Oh didnt know that, Thanks :D

[@bigfatassviking]

I bought a Corsair H100i not that long ago and swapped the fans with Noctua NF-F12 ones and I'm happy with the results so far! Have an overclocked i5 3570K @ 4,2Ghz all mounted in an Fractal Arc Midi R2 case.

[@Nicktrance1]

Yeah, I was actually hoping for a 110i rather than this.

[@nabicx]

no corsair link is a deal breaker.

[@Mc8370]

This might be a lot to ask, but I'd love to see a performance comparison between different stock AIO liquid cooling solutions with different size radiators.

[@TeRzZeUz]

noctua ftw

[@MGE-Gibs]

My cooler doesn’t fit on my mother board for the screws, should I replace the mother board or the mount? It’s the mount directly over the CPU

[@club4ghz]

This ore should i broke my aircondition unit to get my 4770k to 5 ghz lul

[@BenKuyt64]

Get a cheap water cooling kit and put the rad onto your AC. You may need to put your computer beside it, but it will probably work.

[@onomatopoeia162003]

if your lucky if that cpu was in the right batch. just like he said in that one video, when oc the cpu.

[@club4ghz]

Nicholas A. haha i got my 4770k at 4,5 ghz on old ass cooler master v8 i'm looking for something for summer that will keep it cool eventually allow me to overclock more

[@onomatopoeia162003]

***** yeah. i plan to build one. i need it. i don't want be to be using this P4 3.8ghz. its nice and all, but not for what I wanna do. haha..

[@ImToaku]

luke said it all, the best all in one liquid cooling unit would be a mash up of the h100i, h105 and h110

[@thegonch101]

XD rocked surgery

[@CrispyChicken44]

Fuck your stupid fly picture lmfao I threw my napkin at it thinking there was one there, then I felt like a dumb ass when nothing happened lmfaoo

[@thegonch101]

That is a good reaction

[@TheRustyDemons]

I totally agree with the 'h115i' idea, why trade is there trade offs on all these different models?

[@invisghostie6204]

Rocket surgery xD

[@EvilCronos13]

I still run air coolers in my builds. Although, I don't do a lot of overclocking at this point. Between a 3770k and a 7950, I haven't found a game that I want to play that I'm unable to play on maxed out settings.

[@DavidWu]

I totally agree with you, Slick! That's what I've been waiting for quite some time now...

[@GothicDragonX]

i'm running an h100i for about a year now, and i'm leaning more toward getting air cooling with Noctua NH-D14 SE2011 other than that I am waiting for their Active Noise Canceling Heatsink, always hoping for soon. Their fans doesn't bother me a lot since I have a CM Cosmos 2.

[@MerolaC]

I run a H60 (the old model, non 2013) on a I5 3570k@4.30 and it just rocks. I can't wait to get a newer model. Great video guys!

[@TheJuzy]

I also have the old H60, It is surprisingly an epic-performing cooler for the price. I even got it on sale for about 60 dollars (Electronics are a bit more expensive in Sweden due to high taxes, so this price is much better than it seems)

[@MerolaC]

TheJuzy I agree, it has a really nice performance for it price. Even though, I paid 129 u$d for it. But, I'm more than happy with it. Here, in Argentina is the same, but, we paid 6 times more the price, so, 129*6=774 pesos argentinos = 639 SEK in your case.

[@TheJuzy]

That seems as a balanced price for the H60, glad to hear im not the only one rocking it!

[@djhlsmusic]

Yea I'm running literally the exact same setup, except I'm only OC'ed to 4.2Ghz and I don't think I've ever seen the temps go over 65C.

[@DirtyPoul]

I had that cooler too! It was really awesome! Now I have custom water cooling on both CPU and GPU, though there is a leakage that I have to fix soon :/

[@FrostbyteGamingAU]

i've been running custom loops for about 2 years now and ill never go back from that yes its expensive and requires a little maintenance here and there but its totally worth it for the WOW factor, They just look so much nicer! As for the "All in one" approach I have a H100I in my prodigy for my Lan party rig works just fine and i had a H60 spare so i threw it into my home server never had a problem with either they do the job well and i would recommend them to people that are building and want water cooling but are on a budget. I would like to see them come up with one that fits a 180mm or 200mm fan like the Phobya radiator it would be definitely be unique and would propose some interesting build logs on the forum.

[@ThyTrueMaverick]

Still using my Corsair H60 first generation. Works fine and keeps my 4670K very cool. If I'll ever upgrade it, it will be a AIO from Corsair again, probably a 140mm single rad.

[@Conankun66YT]

I'm currently running a H90 on FX8350 and I don't regret it, works great!

[@AlexandruMorosanu]

I've seen that you don't update and link the google doc anymore :(... It was a fast way to consult the results of all your tests that I like very much!

[@SuperFrodo95]

My CoolerMaster X6 didn't even need to ramp up when I ran Prime95 on an i5-4670K at stock frequency. It stayed at or a couple degrees below 58C.

[@feeterican]

I'm still running air but the idea of water interest me for future builds, although on my Core 2 duo I'm still using a fanless heat sink on it but I'm also not overclocking it. I have a pic of it on LTT in show us your builds.

[@HerbaMachina]

i would love the all together combined stuff like you said

[@Ophidian827]

I currently use a h100, but if I Was buying a cooler today, I would probably go for the CM Glacer 240L. I would love to see some refinements on that cooler.

[@brentjgordon]

ive been using the 50 on a 2600k gaming rig for 4 years now and the 1005 for almost a year on a graphic imaging machine and they have worked flawlessly...

[@EdvinDzafcic]

Got mine in the mail today looks clean. Easy set up and less of a pain then open loop config.

[@ClassicGOD]

I was running H80i in my compact itx build (in Node 304 case) but even with 2 NF-F12 it was too loud. At this point I knew that traditional radiators are not designed for silence. I'm still looking at Silverstone TD03 but for now I switched to NH-D14 with 2 NF-A15 fans and both the performance and noise levels are acceptable by my standards.

[@Windowsinside]

I want to buy the components and assemble the configuration myself, where are the CPU/GPU water block pumps combos? I will put the perfect tubing length, with my choice of after market radiator, Corsair and the other should just concentrate on building the BEST water block pump combos they can make!

[@MOTOSNOWRIDER]

Personally I run a 360mm extra thick rad from XSPC, running 3 Noctua NF-F12's on it and am extremely happy with it. I was running an H100i before but i do really miss the readouts and adjustable LED's that came with that, Luke is right a 140mm extra thick rad and all, that would be a sweet setup.

[@stryk187]

I went with a Corsair H90 AIO water cooling unit on my rig that I just put together last week, actually. Performance is fantastic! My AMD FX-8350 idles @ 8-12°C, and while running Prime95 for 45 minutes straight temps never rose above 39°C. The 140mm radiator fan makes very little noise at all, and is only audible during benchmarking or stress testing. In-game it's silent. I was going to do air cooling, but a lot of the better reviewed air cooling units suck big fat balls on AMD sockets. It's tough nailing down one based on 2D pictures that will be compatible with your chosen motherboard while not obstructing RAM slots (even worse if you have high-profile DIMMs, like the Vengeance Pro kit I'm using), or VRM heatsinks, etc. Especially when a lot of manufacturers don't provide very detailed measurement specs. I'm glad I went with an AIO water cooler, performance is top notch, installation was dead simple, price was reasonable (picked up the H90 on sale at Newegg for $73 shipped), and noise pollution is non-existent.

[@tweak2487]

still running an h100 for my amd fx-8150 at 4.7ghz and never have a problem with temps, only time temps got out of control was around 5ghz and when ambient temp was way high as well.

[@Hotfrost]

I know zero things about watercooling, so this might be a dumb question lol. Do you need to add water to the watercooling unit when you buy one? Or is it already inside?

[@CamArias]

Went with a NZXT Kraken X60 instead for cooler. My older H80i went to my mATX build, but I'm very disappointed at Corsair's build quality in my latest purchases. Stripped mounting hole on the H80i just after the first installation and a damaged Sniper button on my M65 mouse just after a couple of months of use. I own from Corsair 24gb worth of ram, a 350D, H80i, M60, M65 and a 600watts PSU, and even tho I love all those products, I'll be thinking twice about their build quality next time I look into their products.

[@Alexandra-Rex]

I DO want the H115i. But since it's not here, and the H105 is so close to the H110 in performance, for my Aerocool DS Cube which I'll build in July, I'll use the H105 (would need to cut some for the H110 to fit).

[@Denspion]

Just installed this in my new case, after getting temp warnings for my CPU and PCI express going over 60 c. Now I stay in the higher 40s lower 50s. Seems to have taken care of my needs, under stress I've not gone over 57 c so far, and that was running the Heaven 4k benchmark.

[@rubik224]

I use a H110 with my FX8350. It's great, in the sense that I don't give a second thought about my temps or noise whilst gaming, the only thing that may ramp up is my graphics card. Just checked the idle temps: 12C (even though it's at least 23 in here) but I guess that's more up to how much the 8350 downclocks itself during idle.

[@BassRacerx]

I am looking to Watercool my videocard in the future with an all in one. i think for my case the zalman circular water cooler would work great for it

[@MakeTheGOD]

Can I mount this as follows, from bottom to top: Radiator - Case - Fans? There are ofc holes in the case top for airflow.

[@illyillyill]

i'm on air, but my system is a tad loud, and i can't reach my fan headers, or put a second exhaust fan in the roof because of my EVO 212. So i'm thinking about switching. My temps are fine though, even at 4.5ghz . It would have cooler to see the colored ring be an LED

[@Eldenissio]

My PC running AMD FX-4100 with a box cooler from FX-8350 and never runs hotter than 47 °C (Aida64 result) in a Aerocool Xpredator X3 case. I'm going to upgrade to AMD FX-8350 and not sure what cooler to take. My option is CM TPC 800 (with 2 CM JetFlow 120) or Corsair H100i (with CM JetFlow 120). I was looking at CM Nepton 280L, but I believe I won't fit it in my case. Noctua cooler or fans are so freaking expensive in my country. Forgot to mension. FX-4100 is overclocked and overvoltaged.

[@LariviereChris]

EKWB 3 slot radiator, water cooling is what I use. AIO is good but an actual liquid cooling system will perform a lot better and offer an easier upgrade. To swap an AIO you'd have to complete change it

[@2AMech]

to answer you, Slick, i was looking for an AIO for OCing my cpu, but i went with the Swiftech H220 with two Noctua NF-F12s based on your (linustechtips) previous videos about that cooler.

[@MiniatureActionJesus]

I'm using a Swiftech H220 in a Fractal R4 with a 4770k overclocked to 4.5ghz and idle around 30C. I had a few issues early on with the Swiftech PWM splitter being doa and the cooler itself having pump problems, but both were replaced quickly and have been working greatly for about 8 months. Too bad Swiftech had to remove the H220 for a while from the market for legal reasons.

[@dustinpennell2823]

Does it really make a difference if you do not mount the Corsair all in one systems to the top of your case and have them bolted horizontal to the ground?

[@GabrielsTech]

I'm running a Noctua NH-D14 on my overclocked 3820. Had the same heatsink on my old platform, x58 with a overclocked 930. Before this I had a Corsair H50, but I found out that for the same price I could get a NH-D14 with better cooling then the H50. So now I have no cooling problems what so ever. The watercooler in my work PC exploded, and a friends Intel watercooler the pump stopped working and made the CPU throttle. So no more watercooling for me. Try to make a hybrid CPU cooler. So when the pump fails you still have cooling from the fan.

[@slipknot2k4]

Im still focused on air cooling since i never overclock. But if i had to choose water cooling i would like a custom made case to fit a long radiator in the front panel without the drive bays.

[@VertexHero]

Any recommendations for fans and other cooling systems like this one? I feel that there's always a little bit of bias with quietness with Linus. Not to be mean anything, because I enjoy Linus tips and reviews! but I would like a little more options, as noise isn't a problem for me.

[@spyder000069]

I used to water cool years ago because any decent equipment was power hungry and ran hot. My old 8800GTS 320mb would double as a space heater along with my 920. I had many builds with custom watercooling loops for both gpu and cpu. It was a PAIN to do any maintenance. To upgrade. To deal with seals leaking and pumps giving up. Then the monster sized air coolers with heat pipes advanced. My 4770K draws way less power than that 920. The gpu cooling has gotten better as well. Its so much easier to deal with and no pump to worry about. If the fan dies on my cpu cooler it sinks enough to not just fry. Not to mention the cost is a 10th of what some of the water cooling setups ran. Nowadays I can just slap on a hyper 212 evo on just about anything and can achieve a decent overclock result. It leaves a little extra in my pocket. Any slight fan noise can't be heard over my headphones.

[@Aleww]

Just bought 2 of these from amazon and both are leaking from the tubing where its connected to the rad straight outta the box. Some of the fins on the rad were bent as well. Very poor quality control.

[@ogk4901]

+Aleww was it used? if it was brand new it would not of happened

[@Aleww]

+Esbei Edits they were brand new sealed. No company is 100% perfect

[@sorealtech9237]

I just purchased a brand new one off of Amazon and right out the box one of tubings was detached and there was liquid every where in the box. Very very bad quality control. I would agree...

[@Aleww]

Anderson Liriano Cruz luckily amazon is good about defective items and returns.

[@HelpfulEnergy]

I'm hopefully getting a custom water cooling loop this summer, I can't wait!

[@ZeroSkyline555]

Do a Silverstone tundra td-02 Review!!! Please!

[@mon94key]

i run air got a total of 5 fans, 3 standard case fans blowing out one large intake fan and a radiator and standard size fan for my cpu computer runs cold still almost 2 years later and that supprised me air is still brilliant and efficient cooling if you get the right case and get the right intake and taking out air flow just follow it in your head where the air comes in and where it comes out and make sure the air coming in stays cold when its around your vital parts.

[@frollard]

I'm with slick - I want ALL the features. Thick 140 dual with nice pipe awesome pump (lookin at you swiftech) and software integration because I love charts. That said - my computer doesn't generate any real wattage at the cpu - it's all GPU and my DCU2 card pumps heat into the case - where it will just cook the aio which would be the main exhaust for the case.

[@LivingSquirel]

was your backplate loose when you followed the intel 1150 instructions. My skylake 1151 asrock motherboard didn't hold in place till I threw caution to the wind[sort of] and turned it over. Thats the one place I would have wanted a few more pictures to say if If the looseness was intentional before putting the cooler on.

[@Demon09-_-]

LivingSquirel mine seems to be tight once you tighten up the thumb screws but it leaves a space under the stand offs. but mine never seems to pump out hot air even when at 70c on ibt. where I gusse the flow rate of the pump is to low to even saturate the radiator

[@LivingSquirel]

Damien Mine seems to work. I have the pump connection set to performance and the fans on silent and it hasn't gone over 40 with me trying to use seti@home at 50 % but I have 2 fans in the front pulling in to help.

[@nucleartaco87]

Wondering if this will fit in my Fractal Design Arc Midi R2, I know the mounts for a 240mm radiator are offset on top of the case so don't think I should have a problem just wanted another opinion, I have the Corsair Vengeance sticks with the high heatsinks too.

[@topsu_u]

I'd like AIO with pump similiar to d5, block similiar to EK supermacy and 240mm radiator that is 30mm thick + around 20fpi. (Pretty much prebuild custom watercooling kit.) Of course you could expand it to gpu etc.

[@DaBlackSavior]

This cooler or cooler master nepton 280l?

[@The5thStateOfMatter]

DX After 1,5 years of running I still run the stock cooler.(And I have a k-series CPU as well) I've been looking into some huge tower air coolers. They seem to be better price to performance ratio than AIOs.

[@Punisher9419]

Why doesn't corsair make the tubes and the rad much thicker and pout a really powerful pump on it so the performance is as good if not better than a custom loop.

[@soupistasty5]

I agree Slick. Completely. We need a Corsair 120i. The 280mm size of the H110, the thickness of the H105 and the higher functions of the H100i. That's what I want, anyway. That might attract me compared to a custom loop, unlike the trio of current products from Corsair.

[@MacauGr]

Where Do i connect PUMP cable? At turbo speed 1853rmp its too noise... HELP

[@Nathanator707]

So what's better the H100i or the H105?

[@Dragon-tg3ug]

I still run an air cooler in my main tower, its a cooler master gtv6 but the fans have been replaced with bitfenix specter pros. with that set up even at heavy load my cpu only hits 54° C.

[@jamesjarmon7383]

As of now I'm running two H100s, on two Opteron 2435s in a Rosewill Black hawk Ultra case. Lots of room in my case, can you suggest a water cooling setup for a pair of HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 cards. I have mounting spots for 80, 120, 140, and 220mm fans.

[@Excaliber0285]

I have been running the original H100, and i prefer that style, because it has the button on the top to control the fan and pump speed manually. But yes, i agree, i would like a H110 size with H105 thickness, but i would still like the manual control

[@facebag666]

I want more focus on the expandable aio market, I personally run a AMD aio (basically an antec920) but am interested in upgrading to a cooler master glacier once the 360 version comes out.

[@lBonaCl]

I myself have been interested in passive air, these all-in-one coolers just don't seem "solid" enough. They're pretty, sure. For me the problem is the long time performance, since there is going to be corrosion inside the loop. Solid copper coolers don't lose their cooling potential over time - if it's not full of dust. The NoFan passive cooler is something I'd like to see, but in a way that it could be done in a smaller size and still be able to cool high end processors. Like something of a Noctua's NH-D14 size. I'd like to see more passive options to every possible cooler (gpu, cpu, motherboard) in the high end hardware. Think about having a GTX 760 / 770 with a passive cooler. It would be massive, but still it would be passive. Though I'd still have to install some fans so my tinnitus wouldn't drive me crazy.

Just purchased a H110 for my 8350. Awesome cooler. It would be nice to see a 110i though...

Im using a very basic all in one water cooling rad, seidon 120v. only because it came free with my case and is doing a good job of cooling my i5 4670k at 4Ghz. Would defo think about getting this rad as an upgrade over the h100i if its cheaper in the future

I find my CM 212 EVO with two Arctic F12 PWM in push-pull very effective with my 2500K at 4.5GHz... Never exceeded 62-63C during gaming or Prime95 with 22-23C ambient temp. It's very quiet, and since I use my Sennheiser HD518 it wouldn't really matter if it was louder.

I run air ATM but i think these self contained liquid coolers are the future for both CPU and GPU cooling, and my next build will use them.

I just purchased one of these on Amazon. One of the tubes looks like it fell apart and leaked all over the box at some point I'm not sure. All I know is when I opened it everything as wet and moist. I contacted Amazon and they sent me another one in the mail hopefully this one is all in one piece. Quality control must be really bad...
