Pricey compared to other self-contained CPU coolers
Both the Corsair H80 and H100 offer significantly improved performance over Intel's liquid cooler and allow for stable overclocks at a higher frequency than the Intel product can reach. Between the H80 and the H100, we like the H100 more--provided you...
We are seeing that self-contained liquid cooling units are becoming increasingly popular, as technology improves and offers lower maintenance, better performance, and cheaper prices as things move ahead. The days of the garbage all-in-one wannabee wat...

Self-contained liquid cooling systems are practical alternatives to full-sized liquid cooling systems in terms of price and ease of installation. Self-contained units also offer significantly better clearance on the motherboard compared to large afterm...

time : Without a doubt Corsair has managed to firmly secure the top spot with it's Hydro 100 all in one cooling solution. The 240mm radiator seems to pay off, besting the Hydro 80 with a few degrees Celcius. Corsair included two fans, identical to the...

Price (20$ more expensive than 920), No tubing clips on radiator
Since the results in the end are very similar between the Antec 920 and the Corsair H100 you will have to just make up your mind on which to choose. The Corsair has a fan speed controller that I like, this I missed on the Antec. The 920 performed a ta...
The Corsair H100 was the best CPU cooler we’ve seen to date. With its 240 mm radiator, which is twice the size of the radiator seen in most sealed liquid cooling systems, it outperformed all the air coolers and liquid cooling solutions we tested so far...

Abstract: Introducing Corsair's Hydro Series: H60, H80 and H100Closed-loop liquid CPU cooling solutions are gaining popularity as more and more vendors are carrying their own variation. We've even seen both Intel and AMD announce the inclusion of liquid-coolers for...
So yes Corsair has a nice LCS kit on their hands with the H100. It remains a kit that is comparable to the really exceptional heatpipe based coolers. The big plus however are the extremely cool looks inside your PC.In combination with very decent cooling...
The Corsair Hydro Series H100 is a very nice cooler. It performs solidly on even the lowest setting, has a 5 year warranty, and a reasonable price tag for a self contained water cooler. Just make sure it will fit in with the rest your system. ...
Since our normal CPU cooler test system was not used, the results from the H100 testing will not be added to our temperature database, but that shouldn't really matter since it's in a class of its own. There are no other 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler...
