[Editor's note: Our review of the new Hydro X Series iCUE XH303i RGB PRO kit is published here for those interested.]

CORSAIR, a world leader in enthusiast components for gamers, creators, and PC builders, today announced new complete hardline CPU custom cooling kits in the award-winning Hydro X Series: the CORSAIR iCUE XH303i RGB PRO and XH305i RGB PRO. With all the key parts you need to build a custom cooling loop, from CPU water blocks, to pump/radiator combos, to all the necessary tubing and fittings, these kits remove the guesswork and streamline the process of building a stunning hardline loop.

The XH303i RGB PRO and XH305i RGB PRO deliver all the necessary components for powerful CPU cooling in one box, in either black or white. An XC7 RGB PRO CPU Water Block, compatible with Intel LGA 1700/1200 and AMD AM4 processors, keeps your CPU temperatures down with more than 110 micro-cooling fins under a nickel-plated copper cold plate. Both kits disperse heat through a 30 mm-thick XR5 360 mm performance radiator, and contain all the hardline tubing and fittings you need, along with an included cutting/bending kit for making beautiful bends.



For systems short on space, the XH303i RGB PRO is powered by a compact XD3 RGB Pump/Reservoir Combo featuring a high-performance DDC PWM pump, with airflow driven by three SP120 RGB ELITE fans with AirGuide technology to concentrate airflow through a high-density radiator.

The XH305i RGB PRO ups the ante with a larger XD5 RGB Pump/Reservoir Combo and three gorgeous QL120 RGB fans equipped with 34 RGB LEDs each. Both kits come with a liter of clear, pre-mixed XL8 Performance Coolant and an included iCUE controller for easy, automated control of your fan and pump speeds and RGB lighting.

Lastly, the Hydro X Series XM2 Water Block in white also launches today. Easily fitting to a compatible M.2 SSD (2280), the XM2 connects to your loop with two standard G1/4" thread connector fittings. Now you can keep your SSD in the loop for lower temperatures and reduced thermal throttling, even in an all-white build. The XM2 is also available pre-installed on a CORSAIR SSD in the MP600 PRO XT Hydro X Edition.

Whether you're a seasoned custom cooling veteran or a newcomer looking to dip your toes in the water, the new Hydro X Series kits from CORSAIR make custom cooling more accessible to everyone.

Really Corsair, you couldn't flip the fans properly for promotional images?

Of all the things to say, you choose this to complain about? Why does it matter so much? :laugh:
 
$500? ffs... I can get a 420mm AIO from Arctic that even cools my VRM's for $125, and then a $150 420mm AIO compatible case, and get the same temps for almost half the price

and better vrm temps to boot.

How effective is that dinky little fan at cooling vrm’s though? I can’t see it doing much.

gamersnexus did a review on it, it does a surprisingly decent job according to Steve

at end of day though it doesn't matter, cause a good mid-high end board already cools VRM's extremely well these days.

every little bit helps though, is all I am saying
 
nvme waterblock, really?
 
Then you turn on iCUE that sucks up 40% of your cpu resources and F up this whole setup
 
For a first time though, doing hard line bends is not the easiest thing, my first time i ended up using twice as much tubing. It's a pretty nice kit though, even for 500 bucks

Heh well, it's just about brands not showing a good example being all too common these days :)

Don't really have much to say about just another watercooling set.

Edit: Bigger picture with all iCue processes.
