Far from the quietest solution, Small amount of room to run cables under the radiator, No fan splitter included
It's no secret among the TG staff that I like my rigs small. In fact my constant gushing over smaller hardware is one of the reasons why we've decided to move forward with building a small form factor rig designed specifically to test mini-ITX and micro-...
Abstract: A while back we already did a small preview on the new Corsair H5-SF All In One cooling solution. Here's a small recap on the aforementioned article .This is what Corsair claims at the product page of the Hydro series H5 SF:Quiet, powerful low-profile liq...
So the Corsair Hydro H5 SF makes me giggle a little ? Yet I am not going to claim that the Corsair Hydro H5 SF is the most charming looking or is the most easy to install product. It is a product that serves a specific need. See, if your need is building...

With more and more people opting to build a small form factor PC cooling has always been an issue if you're intending to install high-end components with limits being set when it comes to overclocking. I wouldn't say the Corsair H5 SF is an absolute co...

Compact size, Mounts to the motherboard, rather than the case, Does a decent job cooling Core i76700K, Fairly low price
Under load the H5 SF is rather noisy, Installation is a fiddly process, Mounts are only compatible with MiniITX, It is possible to kink a coolant hose during installation.

Super compact design (for an AIO cooler), Reasonable OC potential, Sleek and professional looking design, Intel/AMD support, Unique installation bracket for mini-ITX helps lower the profile, Good price,
Blower design louder than usual AIO coolers, but not overly loud compared to low-profile air coolers, Can be tricky to install, but this isn’t a standard cooler after all, “The latest AIO cooler from Corsair may not be out to replace their higher-end prod
PriceThe Corsair H5 SF is a bit of a niche product, but it delivers well on its promises. I was expecting it to have some crazy price tag, putting it alongside high-end AIO coolers with 240mm radiators, but it's just £61.99 from Overclockers UK. That's no...
The H5 SF, despite somewhat mixed results, is an interesting gadget. As we suspected at the start, that graphics card-style radial blower fan is pretty noisy, so it does seem at odds with the goal of many low profile coolers, which is to be quiet while of...
