People looking at this cooler want the display. You can spend much less and get Corsair's H100i Elite cooler without the LCD. Performance is the same between the two. You're paying a premium for the LCD display. I knew that going into this purchase and am glad I spent the extra money on this model.
I'm not sure I would trust this to properly cool a stressed 12th or 13th gen Core i9, but it is fine with my Ryzen 7 5800. Idle temperatures are around 40°C and gaming temperatures go up to 64-66°C. I have the fans configured so that they're pushing air out of my case through the radiator. I'm sure I could get my CPU down cooler by pulling in fresh air from the top and expelling it out the front and back of my tower. It's fine the way I have it though.
The LCD display is high quality. It's bright and has a wide viewing angle. I have no issues seeing it through the tinted glass of my Corsair tower and it goes well with their RGB setup.
I initially had issues with iCUE seeing the LCD display and ring of LED lights around it. I could download GIF images and a lighting setup to it, for when communication with iCUE is lost, but I could not change it live. I wasn't sure what the problem was and tried moving the controller box to a different USB port on my motherboard. Same issues. Turns out the small 6-pin (?) connector that goes into the controller box needed plugged further in, it almost sits flush with the controller box. I cut two narrow strips of electrical tape to hold it in place.
It's easy for me to change what's on the LCD panel in addition to the lights around it. Corsair uses two ML 120 fans with this setup, they're a step up from their LL 120 fans and offer both inner and outer LEDs for color changing.
Installation was easy, though I accidentally put the fans in a push/pull configuration as shown in the two photos I've attached with the smaller graphics card. That was fixed the next day. Operating temperatures are still the same after upgrading from an RTX 3060Ti to a 4070Ti despite my case being 4-5°C warmer.
I highly recommend this AiO for anyone that wants a decent cooler with a high-quality display that you can customize. It's easy to upload your own GIF to it or cycle through several options Corsair offers. Just make sure the ribbon cable is fully plugged into the controller is comes with and don't mix your fans or else you won't be able to fully control them (don't plug LL120 fans into the controller if you're plugging the ML120 fans into it).

When it comes to LCD AIOs this one is among the best, especially for the price. The included RGB hub provides one place for all your case fan and pump header wires to go. Paired with Corsair’s 4000D Airflow it keeps the hottest running CPUs nice and chilly.

This keeps my 9900K super cool in a semi well ventilated case. It has a cool screen for temps and videos if wanted. It's a really cool, no pun intended, AIO.

Overall this is a good product, especially if on sale. My main issue with this comes from Corsair themselves. Inside the box they do not provide any sort of manual or instructions for installation. It's not terribly hard to figure out, however there is a proper orientation in order for the LCD screen to appear right side up. I installed mine "wrong" (see picture), and didn't know that I did until I was done with my build. There's also no way to flip the monitor in iCue. Aside from that, it keeps temps really cool inside the case.

Great AIO COOLER that works well with corsair iCue. The lcd display is sharp and clean, and cools well. The fans are high quality. Comes with a great “Commander Core” that powers the unit and serves as an RGB and PWM control hub.

Absolutely love this liquid cooler in my pc case. I bought a pre-built Asus that was getting gaming Temps at 85-90+ Celsius. Swapped PC cases and added a liquid cooler and now my gaming Temps are 55-60+ Celsius. I would definitely buy again. 100% recommended.

Love it. Does what it’s suppose to do. Keeps temperatures down. Easy to install on LGA 1700. The Cooler has a failsafe that triggers if the LCD screen gets hot. Would love to see Corsair continue to improve on this product over time. ICUE software is sometimes a pain but useful.

I have a 240 radiator and it keeps my cpu temps under 60 degrees. The Ips monitor looks amazing and tones of customizable features. The price is worth it. Also comes with commander core

I bought this Item thinking it would look great in my new system and it did. But immediately I had issues with the firmware and after researching for hours I realized the issue is with the usb splitter it comes with. DO NOT ISE THE SPLITTER. It will not allow you to do the update. It will brick the unit and you will have to remove the icue software, download it again and then power cycle the pc. Plug the usb directly into the motherboard. Even now after being able to preform the firmware update my unit randomly displays a red warning symbol…

LCD seems cheaper. Not as nice as the kraken z73. But it keeps the temps low. So I guess that’s all that matters.

This is the best way to cool the notoriously hot 12th gen Intel CPUs. Install was very easy as well and the iCUE software is great and very accessible.

This aio is awesome! Not only can you put any image you want on the lcd screen, but it does a great job at cooling a 13th gen intel cpu! Temps never went above 60 degrees Celsius in game! The unit is pretty quiet compared to the Thermaltake one I had. When idling it was completely silent and when gaming it was a small fan hum. Unfortunately I did have to return this item because I had to return the pre built i got, but planning on buying the 360 version!

When the LCD upgrade kit came out I rushed to buy it. I was saddened to find out it didnt work after days of trying. Sucked I had to return it. Fast forward a year and now I finally have it and it works! Now I can put my favorite NSFW gifs!
Keeps my 13700k chilled at 45-55c while gaming. I don't use all more cores so 240mm is just the right amount of cooling for me. If you are doing content creation or productivity I would advise going for the 360mm--especially the new Raptor lake Intel CPU's because they run HOT!

I purchased a new Intel i9-13900k processor and needed something to cool it. Larger fans wouldn't fit so I had to go with the 240mm fan. This one is really expensive but it was the only one available at the store for pickup but had great specs and reviews otherwise. This has kept my entire system running smooth and without an issue. I don't worry about heat on my CPU with this.

Decent performance from a 240mm AIO. Looks stunning in a glass side case, and easy enough to setup and install, kind of thick cable coming off the LCD/pump but nothing that can’t be worked with. Temps are nothing to write home about, but about par for the course for 240mm AIOs
