Corsair Launches New Hydro Series H100i PRO Liquid CPU Cooler
Corsair today launched a new addition to its bestselling line of Hydro Series liquid CPU coolers, the CORSAIR Hydro Series H100i PRO RGB 240mm Liquid CPU Cooler.
Equipped with a vibrant RGB LED-lit pump head and two high-performance ML120 PWM magnetic levitation bearing fans, fan and lighting control powered by iCUE software. The H100i PRO’s pair of ML120 fans are tuned to produce the airflow and static pressure needed to excel when driving air through a radiator, in addition to boasting ultra-low friction magnetic levitation bearings that allow them to spin significantly quieter at higher RPMs. PWM connection allows for precise speed control across a wide range, from 400 RPM to 2,400 RPM, or even the ability to stop the fans entirely using Zero RPM fan profiles at lower temperatures. Driving the H100i PRO’s performance is a redesigned cold-plate and adjustable low-noise pump, engineered to transfer heat away from your CPU into the coolant, and towards the radiator as efficiently and quietly as possible. Capped with aluminum trim and a vibrant zone of RGB lighting, the H100i PRO’s pump head sits at the heart of your PC with the performance to cool today’s fastest CPUs, finished with vibrant ring of RGB lighting.
With customizable fan speed, pump speed and RGB lighting, CORSAIR iCUE software powers the H100i PRO, allowing users to easily adjust performance and synchronize lighting across their whole system. Set up detailed fan curves to automatically adjust fans when CPU or system temperatures rise, set RGB lighting to indicate CPU temperature or match your setup, and adjust pump speed to prioritize peak flow-rate or minimal noise, all from a single intuitive interface. Easy to install into almost any enthusiast case thanks to a standardized 240mm radiator size and a modular, tool-free mounting bracket, the H100i PRO is backed by a comprehensive five-year warranty, so you can be confident of worry-free CPU cooling for many builds and upgrades to come.
Today also sees the release of a fully updated version of the popular CORSAIR Hydro Series H75 performance CPU cooler. A pair 120mm CORSAIR SP Series PWM fans, adjustable between 600 RPM to 1,900 RPM, provide powerful airflow either side of a slim 120mm radiator, while a distinctive white LED-lit pump adds a touch of brilliance to any system. Just as with H100i PRO, the H75 uses an updated cold plate and pump, stylish braided tubing and a modular tool-free mounting bracket that install in minutes to bring dependable high-performance liquid cooling to almost any PC.
The Hydro Series H100i PRO is backed by a two-year warranty and the CORSAIR worldwide customer service and technical support network. Check our review here btw.

Sure hope the "Pro" series have improved on reliability as it uses an updated pump design vs the non-Pro one.
Right now, the H110i Pro is the same price as the H115i Pro on amazon (US & Canada), so ordered the later as it's a no-brainer. We'll see how it goes.

Slowly but surly they are loosing that stupid gap around the sides of the fan that loose any pressure the fans have built up to aid in the air flow through radiators.
Hopefully it will be gone soon but its nice to see it shrink.
I think they are slowly removing that bad design because its getting smaller and smaller.
or just fit these.

I only ever owned one closed loop water cooler (a Seidon XL120.) It's the one I'm still using. Bought back in 2013 and it's still working fine on an almost 24/7 machine. I wonder when it's finally gonna dry up.

boss, i think there is miss type
"The Hydro Series H100i PRO is backed by a two-year warranty and the CORSAIR worldwide customer service and technical support network. Check our review here btw."
the h100i pro is 5years warranty right ?
i experiencing same things with H80i v2 pump that suddenly just dead after less than 3months
but the good things is that my local corsair RMA is really nice, their process the exchange hassle free
i learn, seems rather than placing the cooler-block aligning with the corsair-text (horizontal)
its seems much better to set the cooler-block with pipe in the downward not side or up (the text should be vertical)
it just basic physic, that way more easier for liquid-cooler to flow/cycling rather than set pipe on side/up, that seems need more push for water to cycle
so far my current unit been 24/7 on performance mode for like a year+ (i figure out no need to pick quite-mode as the noise not that different, also it have 5year warranty anyway, incase the pump fail i will just RMA it )

I don't really trust them much either. When I had an H110, I came home once to the fans not running because of a Corsair software error.
My NH-D15 is virtually silent during normal operation. I've never had any self-contained liquid setup that was quiet in comparison.

amazed how well the nh-u9s did
just bought one for my in win 901 mini itx build to replace the excellent wraith cooler that came with my 2700x
i figure the wraith can max out the 2700x in a case with lots of airflow and cooling, but all cores only hit 3800 when running cinebench in the 901 mini itx case
i hope to squeeze a few hundred more megahertz out of it with this cooler
i am not oc'ing, but just depending on the asrock 470 board's power boost and xfr implementation

Had my H110i gt for over 3 years now, apart from a scale issue within the first 12 months which was fixed by changing the coolant to Mayems clear coolant its ran flawlessly ever since.

I had a H100i fail after a year. RMA and IIRC they sent me the same one. It failed after 4 months. Then they replaced it with a H100i v2 and has been working fine for almost 2 years now. At least Corsair's after sales customer service is top notch. First time I did mail in the H00i but it cost me 25 euro shipping. Second time, I told them that shipping is expensive so they offered me another solution. Cut the tubes from the radiator and providing them with photos for evidence before they sent me the H100i v2. Got to keep the extra (noisy) fans from the defective one. BTW, I thought warranty was 2 years (EU minimum) and when they told me it was 5 years I was surprised.

I found the results to be off in comparison to the older reviewed Corsair AIOs, at least during idle. Do you think the 4790k needs Delidded and cleaned up?
Edit:I just read it has zero fan mode up to 40c...don't mind me
