How in the world does the H50 not fit?

Maybe he didn't have a rear 120 exhaust?

Kantastic · Jan 18, 2010, 04:21 AM

Raidmax Tornado's have a 120mm exhaust fan though.

No freaken idea then

codyjansen · Jan 18, 2010, 06:08 AM

the tornado has a 120 exhaust but it is held in place by a clip thingy and the clip is like smaller than a 120

I think this type of technology is the future of simple bolt on liquid cooling.

idk custom built water cooling is self contained in a way as well... idk but the water doesn't leave the unit, and i never have to open.. at least not for 9-12 months anyways....

Would if not of been simple to disregard the clip and drill a few holes?

Sorry if your not the guy with the case and is buying an entire new one just for a cooler.

@ Binge

Over here the H50 and Domino ALCs cost 50 quid. so do true 120exs

Both the WC systems shit all over the true 120 ex in terms of performance, and the true doesn't even come with fans!

They're bargains over here

True 120 ex max temp @ 3.6 ghz 1.5 volts with this xeon 95c

Max temp when I had a Domino strapped down. 77c

That's not bad

i could have done that but i just want to get a new case

codyjansen · Jan 20, 2010, 12:01 AM

i am waiting for my new case to arrive and i thought i would hook up the pump too my h50 in one of my old pcs to see if it is leaking or not and i cant hear anything. should i be able to hear anything coming from the h50???

Not really, maybe some trickling water inside the tubing because I heard that.

Bo$$ · Jan 20, 2010, 04:47 PM

panther i calculated that you need to spend about £75 in total on a custom water cooling kit, with includes 2m of 1/2' tubing, coolant, cpu block, 2 GPU blocks, res/pump, velcro, 10 barbs and a black ice 240 radiator

Mind letting us all in on this?

That's very good, how are ambient temps, must be pretty cool where your PC is.

codyjansen · Jan 23, 2010, 07:33 AM

That's pretty good temps for idle, you seem happy with the H50

Flyordie · Jan 23, 2010, 02:41 PM

With all these clubs- there should be a more basic club... "The All Copper Club".

I would have gotten an H50 but decided against it when I found a ThermalTake V1 "Extreme Edition" (Its a Black Widow Best Buy Edition, but the same exact thing as the Extreme Edition on newegg for $62) for $42 after tax. Keeps my temps in the low 20s idle and tops out at 38-40C loaded.

Very good, I'm so excited, can't wait till I get mine.

nt300 · Jan 25, 2010, 10:48 AM

Make sure you plug in the Corsair H50's CPU fan pump to a continuous power source so it can run in maximum speed. I’ve noticed many people don’t plug in the pump in the proper location and there temps go up.
