The Hydro H100 is a leap for the closed loop water coolers as it brings a larger 240 mm sized radiator to the mix. This is a logical step to take seeing how popular 240 mm mounting points are in modern cases, and also helps improve the performance of ...
Despite high level of noise we saw by Corsair’s new H100 liquid-cooling system, it left a very positive overall impression. And this comes not only from Corsair H100 being a great product, but also from the fact that this product symbolizes a new step...
As it stands, the Corsair H100 is the most efficient thermal solution in the Hydro-series, but more importantly it is also the most efficient heatsink we have tested to date. In direct comparison to other Hydro coolers such as the H80, the H100 was on ...
So you've seen the graphs, possibly watched the video and are bound to have noticed a Gold Award at the bottom of the page. "You best explain this and fast" I'm hearing you say in your strictest voice, thanks for not using the motherly one because we are...

The Corsair Hydro Series H100 has proved to be the best performing self-contained liquid cooling solution I have tested. In fact, it's the best performing solution I have tested so far, aside from a custom water loop. This of course falls entirely int...
Abstract: Custom water cooling has been a commitment in previous times. You had to buy all the kit, the radiator, the pump, fittings, reservoir, tubing water block, coolant and then worry about the maintenance. You would be rewarded with superior cooling and in mos...
Abstract: Water cooling rigs used to be only for the dedicated or foolhardy. Custom waterblocks, galvanic corrosion issues, sourcing coolants and quiet-enough kits, and that was before the big leak or dud pump. Today, the experience is much improved with closed ...
