It is a cooler series that is easy on the eyes and comes with a relatively tool free installation. Next to that what's interesting is that this product is based on a sticker 120mm radiator (49mm) which gives it a little more cooling surface area. The product we test in specific is the Corsair H80i GT, an updated design with new cooling block and regulated control for pump and fans. With that in mind Corsair started to develop a new series H (for Hydro) coolers. To compensate FAN RPM goes up making a good looking product noisy again. The gear behind these kits are good yet the performance is often battling a small included 120mm radiator with thin tubing and lacking coolant levels due to missing reservoirs. The bigger problem is cooling performance.

We've seen and tested many of them as Corsair, Asetek, CoolIT and so on all have interesting kits. Next in line are LCS systems (liquid cooling), the entry level products are affordable, easy to install pre-fab liquid cooling kits. The better heatpipe based coolers are good though. These days you can pick a hundred different heatpipe based coolers, where many are shaped, formed and priced the same. You know, in the world of CPU coolers nothing ever stops developing. All that and you get configurable RGB lightning as well. Armed with two 120mm fans in a push-pull configuration and a nice extra thick 120mm radiator the performance should be pretty okay. This processor cooler is compatible with Corsair's LINK software allowing you to program, customize and monitor this all-in-one liquid cooling solution for your processor. In this review we test the Corsair H80i GT Hydro Series Liquid cooler.
