Corsair iCUE H100i ELITE CAPELLIX Liquid CPU Cooler (33 Ultra-Bright RGB LEDs, Two 120 mm ML RGB Series PWM Fans, 400 to 2,400 RPM, Zero RPM Mode, iCUE Commander CORE Included), Black

Product Information

The H170i earned a spot on our best AIO coolers list, but does the H100i Elite also have what it takes? The CORSAIR iCUE H100i ELITE CAPELLIX Liquid CPU Cooler delivers powerful, low-noise cooling for your CPU, with a 240mm radiator, two CORSAIR ML120 RGB PWM fans, and an ultrabright CAPELLIX RGB pump head. This makes 36dB our baseline measurement, as we’re unable to measure noise levels below this threshold. Along with that cooler, Corsair also sent us a more ‘budget’ option, the 240mm H100i Elite Capellix XT.

The disadvantage to this method is that semi-intensive, sustained, workloads (like those we use for testing) will cause the cooler to run as loudly as in a fully unrestricted workload.

The ELITE CAPELLIX XT cooler pump head houses 33 ultra-bright CAPELLIX LEDs to go along with its RGB fans. It’s important again to note that the noise levels shown here are the result of a steady, sustained load.

CORSAIR iCUE H100i ELITE CAPELLIX AIO Cooler Review CORSAIR iCUE H100i ELITE CAPELLIX AIO Cooler Review

The ELITE CAPELLIX cooler pump head houses 33 ultra-bright CAPELLIX RGB LEDs to go along with its RGB fans. This performance is complemented by brilliant RGB lighting from ultra-bright, power-efficient CAPELLIX LEDs and an included iCUE Commander CORE Smart RGB Lighting and Fan Speed Controller. CFM of airflow at peak 2,100 RPM and quiet, long-lasting operation thanks to a fluid dynamic bearing. I'm one of those people that really dislikes lights and screens on every little thing and will always pick the "cheaper" non-rgb but equally performing product.Note there are many factors other than the CPU cooler that can influence your cooling performance, including the case you use and the fans installed in it.
