Review on πŸ’¦ Corsair iCUE H100i RGB Pro XT Liquid CPU Cooler, 240mm Radiator by Anthony Colton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is the new version of this 2020 AIO!

You must search specifically for this model number to find it on Revain. This is the latest version of their cooler to update the RGB LEDs on the pump/cooler block that goes to the CPU. You can change the color of the LEDs on the block individually and have other swirls. Also, iCUE gives you full control over the AIO when it comes to fan speed and pump monitoring. It's possible that Revain is trying to sell old stock, which is why it doesn't show up when you follow the manufacturer's Corsair link on Amazon. This cooler is amazing. I have a Ryzen R9 3900X and with all boosted cores it doesn't exceed 55C at full load. The configuration recommended by the manufacturer is to draw air into the case through a heat sink. Make sure you deflate properly depending on whether you want to get a positive or negative pressure case. Mine is mounted on top of the case and is positive pressure as I have a Husky and hair and dirt can be a problem if I don't set it up that way. Lessons Learned: My LEDs didn't work initially when I installed the cooler. The internal USB connection is for pump and LED control only and does not provide power to the LEDs. The pump and fans are powered from a single SATA power connector. For ease of installation and cabling I used one of the open molex connections available when the drive was powered on and used a molex to sata power supply. The fans and pump are most likely powered by the 12V rail. In this configuration you only have 5V and 12V, not 3.3V. I have a direct SATA connection connected to my PSU and now the LEDs are fully functional as it turns out they are powered from the 3.3v rail. So be sure to use a real SATA power connector and not Molex to SATA power adapters to power this AIO.
