Corsair Hydro Series H100 · A 240mm radiator from corsair!

crazyeyesreaper · Jul 12, 2011

is the rasa kit the one where the pump IS also the res and it tends to burn out within 6 months or so on most kits.

as for the H100 i was keeping my eye on it for good quiet cooling and so i could get better ram, but with mushkin releasing new 1866mhz redlines on newegg i dont need an h100 for good ram, but im still interested. ill wait till reviews surface.

Spend the money on a real watercooling kit like the razza kit on frozencpu

nah would rather not... its a pain to setup a real WC loop, drip test etc... more pain if im changing hardware/mobos often especially... the H100 is self contained and easy to setup and the difference in load temps isnt going to be that great im sure and I wont have to worry about leaks

I agree 100% custom wc is a pain in the ass as it needs regular maintenance/care! h100 is the way to go hassle free water cooling rocks! i expect the h100 to be very promising as corsair never let me down since i got the old h50

Custom WC is not a pain in the ass. Well I mean, I guess it is if you're lazy and don't like to do things yourself. I had an H70 and it was great (although overpriced quite a bit), but now that I've moved to full water again I do not regret it one bit. From the performance to the looks it just makes the H100 not worth it at all.

You can buy an EK H30 Supreme HF nickel kit with a 360 rad for $280 and it comes with everything you need including nickel compression fittings, supreme hf block, etc, etc. It comes with all high quality parts and completely crushes Corsair's performance. It is not a pain in the ass to setup either. Not to mention you can add on VGA blocks and more rads/pumps etc.

The corsair solutions are great if you don't mind paying for them. They are very simple, work well and require little maintenance if any. I admit I liked the minimalistic look of the H70. It's going into my wife's computer soon.

I just don't think it's fair to say that WC is a "pain in the ass". That's like saying fixing up a muscle car is a "pain in the ass". It depends on the person setting it up. To me it was actually really fun setting my loop up.

Only people who have never set up a wc rig would say its hard. Most of us could do it within 30 minutes and the h100 will never cool as good.

I've run the res/pump from the raza kit for over a year without any issues

ERazer · Jul 13, 2011

custom h20 needs little more attention than self contain its less hassle, tho i have to agree custom loop is better in cooling

i still remember how much hassle it was to change my gpu

CDdude55 · Jul 29, 2011

No im not buying anything computer related until 2021.

LordJummy · Jul 29, 2011

Total waste of money to upgrade to this if you have an H70 or something. That review makes it very clear.

Also - those are not normal core temps, so your actual results will probably be a lot higher.

shouldve ordered it on overclockers.co.uk... they have it in stock now

Q9650 · Aug 12, 2011

scanuk has just dropped the h100 price again from £87 to £84.12

xbonez · Aug 13, 2011

Definitely a great product. I'm gonna be making some changes to my system in a few months, and I'm eyeing the H100 for that. I've used the XSPC Rasa before, but honestly, a custom water loop is a lot of work and attention. Having done it once for the experience, I believe I'll just stick with closed loops or air cooling for my main system.

For side projects, sure, custom loops are fine.

rfowler30 · Aug 13, 2011

you wont regret getting the h100, its a mighty fine liquid cooling machine. works really great with SB.

Already have my eyes on him

LiveOrDie · Sep 3, 2011

I just brought one of these and its not to bad but if you have a H70 i wouldn't bother its doesn't cool that much better, I went from a Coolit eco to this and the H100 does have lower temps but the coolit eco rad is half the size of the H70s.

Q9650 · Sep 4, 2011

thank you guys for your votings! I am loving my h100 but until the summer ends and the winter starts i won`t be sure 100% on how much the h100 will cool my cpu. but already i am seeing a temp drop of 5 degrees (idle) against my retired h70 which is remarkable considering the hot weather and hot room i have....

LiveOrDie · Sep 5, 2011

I like aus my room cooks in the summer and im going to need the H100 on full speed or ill have to down clock my cpu O_O
