I am not willing to shed blood over this. Alls I'm trying to say is a 120mm rad is a waste, and it's packaged in a way I can't stand behind knowing about WC. Not that Corsair won't back you up, and not that it's bound to fail. Making clubs/spreading hype/going apesh!t over something that has been on the market for a while now confuses me. The enthusiasm over such a bland product is more annoying than the product itself. The great aspects of water cooling is not the price, but it's the hobby. If you want to learn to cool something to the best your ambient air temperatures can support then eat some ramen and save some money.
I saw somewhere above that Corsair even said not to use these for more than 2 years. Looks like I'm not a complete bumbling idiot eh?
Never said you were man. Just thought you were a chicken little thats all. The H50 is a simple cheap alternative to standard air cooling. Nothing more. Its never been stated to be the equivalent of a custom WC rig. It was designed to meet and beat the best AIR coolers for minor overclocking. In this job it does well. Put it up against a custom setup and you will have an epic fail.
What I don't understand is your passionate hate for a product that does exactly what its designed to do. The box says "Up to 30% better cooling than an OEM cooler". It never said "OMFG this is as good as custom WC!".
