Customers often highlight the excellent cooling performance, vibrant RGB lighting, and ease of installation of the Hydro Series H100i RGB Platinum. Many also praise its quiet operation and good build quality, although some users mention challenges with the software and cable management. A few users noted compatibility concerns depending on the case and motherboard used. The size of the cooler was also a point of discussion for some customers.
I have had this installed for about a month now in a new build for an i3-10100. Admittedly, I'm not hardcore gaming with it, so the CPU isn't being pushed a ton, but this cooler is working really well, looks great, and the RGB is really solid. I have it top mounted in an exhaust position. No issues. Even though this model in Corsair's lineup is now a couple of years old, their newer stuff is using the same water pump. So, it's a proven, mature platform, and this model doesn't disappoint. It's probably overkill for my needs, but I love the look, and since it's never taxed to hard, it's quiet, even though I'm using a pretty open style case (Corsair 4000D Airflow), still don't hear the fans much.

I was having trouble cooling my AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, but this thing works wonders. I was previously using a Noctua NH-D15, but it rested on my gpu and caused the cpu to overheat. The cpu would spike to ~105° Celsius and then shut off. Now, it runs at ~75-80° Celsius even when running a game in 4k. I'm glad it works, but i hate liquid coolers for the setup. It is a huge annoyance. Especially the way this one is set up for AM4 sockets with the little latch locks. They twist and come undone from the mount as you are screwing them on. And, this thing adds 7 more wires running through the back of my case. The asthetic is very nice, the RGB lighting is super bright and there are multiple LEDs in both the fans and the pump. It is also very quiet, even on extreme performance it is quieter than my Noctua was. I am very pleased with the cooler, I guess i just get too annoyed setting things like this up after all the times I've rebuilt my pc lol! (Little steep on the price, but Best Buy had it in stock & i needed something fast so I could use my PC.)

Im using this in my gaming build to cool an AMD Ryzen 9 3900x cpu, and it works great! Beautiful LED's, lots of customization options in RGB, easy to install, cools perfect. No issues running some intense games. I did wipe off the thermal paste that's pre-applied on the heat sink and applied better quality paste using the spread method on the CPU during installation.
