The reason I purchased this product is to replace the exact same cooler. The pump failed. To be fair, it failed after 5 years of use. I had it running four out of seven days all year, for 5 years. That equates to 1040 days or 24960 hours of constant use, with a full thermal load of 240 watts plus case heat. I suppose the RGB LEDs are nice (as seen in the photo) but, by me, they mostly go unseen.

Very solid performance. Very visually pleasing. Running an i7 10700k on a ROG Strix motherboard, using ai tweak to achieve a 4.6-5.0ghz range at temps from 30°C-50°C. Swapped the fans with Corsair LL 120mm, they have a LED ring around the fan in addition to the fan LED. No idea if they provide better or worse performance than the stock fans because I installed them from day one. All around very pleased.

It keeps my Ryzen 3800XT cool under load with cinibench R20, roughly 70 degrees with all cores loaded. Only issue i have is with the setup. If you plan on running anything else you will need to purchase the lighting node controller and the commander pro. About 100+ additional dollars tp make the corsair only cooling system work.

This CPU Cooler works very well, i had a Thermaltake UX100 RGB, which is ok, but i have a Ryzen 5 CPU, was running warm at 80 degrees Celsius, which is kina hot. with the Corsair Hydro H100i RGB Cooler temps haven't reach over 65 degrees Celsius. so very good.

Cooling block not lighting up

Overall It’s a great cooler if setup properly. I just wish they mentioned some where on the instructions you need a gold power supply or a power supply with all wires in your sata cable or your cooling block will not light up. Don’t be like me buying a cheap bronze power supply and trying to figure out why I have lights on the fan but not the cooling block. Now I’m rewiring my whole computer again just to get this thing up.

Please make sure you measure this out. I made the mistake and purchase the Corsair 220 case with RGB. The downside was the Vengeance memory, they are a bit tall along with my TUF 580x board. I had to mount this vertically.

Bought the unit to replace the stock cooler and add some color to my PC. Paired it with Corsair RAM and an LED Fan as the rear blower.

The cooler is nice and the RGB looks good... HOWEVER, the iCUE software or the cooler firmware has an annoying bug. The cooler keeps connecting and disconnecting constantly. I read online and multiple people are having this issue since last year. I am trying to debug the issue before taking the decision of returning it. I am really disappointed because I had really high expectations for this cooler. On the attached images, you can see that it is ON, then turns OFF, then ON (color changes to default rainbow), then OFF again, and then goes back to my settings.
