A big thank you to Corsair for supplying the review sample.
Corsair continues to stand as a juggernaut in the DIY PC market, commanding a massive following of enthusiasts worldwide. With a reputation grounded in dependable products and exceptional customer service, it's no surprise that Corsair has achieved significant success. Since their humble beginnings in 1994, Corsair has diversified into system memory, power supplies, fans, coolers, all-in-one liquid coolers, custom water loop components, laptops, desktops, keyboards, mice, and more. The trajectory suggests that Corsair is poised to maintain its dominance in the market for years to come.
In this review, we will be examining the performance of Corsair's latest and greatest, the iCUE LINK H150i RGB AIO liquid cooler. This particular model features a 360 mm radiator with an iCUE LINK passthrough to keep wire mess to a minimum. With numerous new design elements and features, alongside a set of new spinners in the QX RGB fan, it may prove to be a solid option, especially if performance is up to par. So, without further delay, let's take a closer look!

Packaging
The box closely resembles other recent packaging designs used by Corsair, employing a striking black and yellow theme to catch the eye of potential consumers. On the front, you will be greeted by a full-color image of the AIO in order to highlight the updated aesthetics thanks to a revamped pump design and the new QX120 RGB fans. Similar to the front, there is another full-color image showcasing the cooler in all its RGB-illuminated glory on the left. Meanwhile, the back panel provides details such as radiator and fan dimensions, along with a list of features including the iCUE LINK ecosystem and supported sockets.
The right side mirrors the left, featuring another image of the cooler with not much else to see. The same applies to the top of the box. However, turning to the bottom, you will find all the remaining specifications, including the fan RPM range, CFM rating, etc., along with a quick visual guide illustrating the individual components that make up the mounting hardware.

The Corsair iCUE LINK H150i RGB comes pre-configured in a cardboard tray. No misc foam to be seen and while the unit did arrive safely I would still prefer to see a bit more in regards to product protection.
The cooler does support most mainstream sockets from AMD and Intel, including AM4 and AM5 of the former and LGA115x, LGA1200, and LGA1700 of the latter. Overall, everything you need is included and considering the new design choices and features, this model should be even easier to install than previous generation offerings.
