Corsair Hydro Series H110 280 mm High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler

This works awesome. I can overclock to the CPU's capability and don't have to worry about overheating. The highest I've been able to get the CPU to is 72c and that is cranking 4800MHz. Wasn't perfect stability at that speed though so I'm back down to 4700MHz and it is rocking along. I love this cooler. It is simple to install, stupid proof and incredibly quiet. The fans don't seem to move much air so I replaced them with the bgears 1800rpm versions. Now they make noise and move lots of air but I don't think it really did much for the temps so I might just go back to the stock ones that are pretty darn impossible to hear. I literally have to stick my head really close to the computer to even know it is on it is so quiet with the stock fans. So yes if you want to be able to run at the fastest possible stable speeds of your CPU then this cooler will do the trick.

This baby cools. I installed this in my new Fractal Mid Tower case. You can see the review under my other posts. This cooler was the finishing touches to complete my build. I was running 50-60 celsius on my cpu under medium load. I have an ASUS motherboard with an AMD 8 core 4.0 ghz processor. The stock fan sounded like a blow dryer trying to keep it cool. The temp was in the 40 celsius range under idle. After installing the H110, I am at idle with as low as 7 celsius and usually no more than low 20's under medium load. The fans are large so they are very quiet. I have a very large case and barely fit this thing in. You will want to measure before purchasing. The reason for choosing the H110 over the H100. I have two sons who built awesome machines. One has the H100 the other has the H110. The H100, which is further from the door, can be heard as you enter the room. You have to get close to the computer with the H110 in order to hear it. I wanted quiet. They both work excellent for cooling. The larger fans on the H110 just make it better. Worth the extra few bucks. Just make sure you measure.

First thing you need to do is buy a Y-Splitter cable for either 3 or 4-pin so you can connect your fans to the CPU OPT, otherwise you'll need to use the regular fan headers - which is not idea or wise. I gave this a 4/5 for the sole reason that one of the two fans rattled out of the box, and I can't live with that. Rather than RMA them I ditched them for better ones. Outside of that I love this thing, it keeps my OC'd 3770k very cold, I never exceed 45C after the heaviest applications and it typically never goes above 37C for most games. I have since replaced the somewhat weak fans with two Noctua NF-A14 PWM (HINT: They come with a free Y-Splitter 4-pin and move a ton more air, or CFM) and really unlocked the potential of this badboy. I suggest the pull configuration rather than push (fans between the radiator and case) so you can easily clean the radiator as dust accumulates. Also for those with the Corsair 650D (like myself) you need to put it in pull configuration, because the radiator is to long to mount in push.

Had the H90 installed in my other gaming build and this thing is larger than my oil cooler on my old Kawasaki GPz 750 motorcycle I had! With the two 120mm high flow fans from Corsair acting to push the cooler room air through the cooler vents from the front, for me it's the perfect setup. Running 16GB of DDR4 and the 780 ti for graphics the air being vented from the top is just as cool as the air in the room, which stays pretty cool. So once the replacement MOBO comes back in and I can monitor CPU specs like they should be I'll be back with an update but so far very impressed. Be advised I don't know about other board setups, (running the ASUS Rampage V) but with the Corsair Graphite case and having the H110 cooling setup in the front, the hoses to the CPU reach fine. BUT if you add memory cooling to those already heavy heat sinker DD4 sticks, the hoses will just barely clear the memory fan tops with their sharp metal corners. Memory in the left banks of course are uneffected. So in the end I elected to return the memory coolers since one, I think in their inherent design they will stay cool enough as is and two, I don't want to have to worry over time of having a sudden cooling leak inside a $2,500 machine. Sometimes less is better.

First of all, this thing is huge. I wanted a liquid CPU cooler for my rig for a few reasons: 1) It's quieter than air cooled, 2) It keeps the CPU much cooler than air cooled systems, 3) It looks a lot cooler (pun intended) than air cooled CPU coolers. I use it on an Intel i5-4690K 3.5Ghz OC @ 4.5GHz and during heavy loads it runs at around 50-60°C, if that high. At regular everyday use, it's at 25-40°C. It varies depending on what I'm doing (usually running multiple things at one time). I don't mind those temps at all. This rad/fan combo works amazingly. I have the 140mm fans in between the case and the radiator pulling the air through the radiator (I tried both ways and it seems better and quieter in this configuration than having the fans pushing air through the radiator). Also, I picked this one over the H100i mainly because this radiator was bigger and could dissipate more heat than the H100i. There were also less plugs with the H110 (just one for the pump and two for the fans) whereas the H100i, I believe, has one more plug for monitoring fan speed. If you have the room like I do in the Corsair 750D, this is definitely the best one you could get without going into actual water-cooling systems.
