Corsair iCUE H115i RGB ELITE 280 mm AIO

crazyeyesreaper · Oct 7, 2022

Corsair's iCUE H115i RGB ELITE comes bursting onto the scene with a new set of AF ELITE 140 mm fans, which help propel this all-in-one liquid cooler into contention with some of the best in its class. Add in stellar support via the 5-year warranty, and you have a compelling option no matter how you look at it.

Most Corsair products are overpriced.

I think I am still going to go with an Arctic AIO if I do an AIO, 6 year warranty and they already proved when they make a mistake they fix it fast and hassle free.

You crack me up, man

Thanks for the review - at least they didn't ruin the fan performance like BeQuiet! did on their Pure Loop 2FX!
It's a shame you don't have a regular non-ARGB Pure Loop 2 280mm in your charts. That's a better, quieter AIO for $55 less than this 115i RGB Elite.

Look, another overpriced Corsair AIO with little changes to the previous one!

I would've thought this would replace the RGB PRO lineup; non-RGB fans at a lower price. But the MSRP is only $10 lower than the capellix line. If you're gonna pay such a large corsair tax it'd be for the RGB I'd think.
Having only a single USB-C connector to the CPU block is a nice improvement, even if you still need all the other connectors at the other end.
