Customer Ratings & Reviews

I must preface this review by informing you that the thermal paste that comes provided (pre-installed on the pump) is NOT enough to adequately cover your processor. I would absolutley wipe off what comes with it using some isopropyl alcohol and apply your own thermal paste. If you’re installing an AIO I assume you have hardware knowledge, so this is a very easy adjustment to make. With that out of the way, I love this cooler. I replaced a noctua air cooler with the Corsair AIO because the air cooler was simply too large and limited what i could do with my build. While efficient and budget friendly, after a few years I grew tired of the bulky analogue look of my Noctua. I knew I needed to switch when it came time to upgrade my RAM and could not fit the new sticks in with the Noctua. Even though cooling provided by the Noctua showed better results while under load, the temperature differential was only a few degrees (≤ 5 degrees). Installation is a breeze - the radiator is quite large, so I would save it for last if building from the ground up to give yourself more room to connect cables, etc. The provided RGB command center is phenomenal, with so many programmable light patterns and colors you can customize, along with syncing to any other RGB Corsair products you have installed. If you have the budget and want top tier aethetics with good cooling, this is the AIO for you. Corsair never fails to deliver quality.

Does a pretty good job at keeping a Ryzen 7 5800X3D cool. Keep in mind, orientation will significantly impact how well it cools. Ideally, you should mount it so that it's blowing the coldest possible air over it. So if it's a top mount as an exhaust for the case, your cooling power will be diminished as it's blowing already warm air over the radiator. Assembly was straightforward and it came with all the brackets and screws for a variety of CPU sockets (I had AM4). It also came with pre-applied thermal paste. The only reason I'm docking a star is because of the proprietary nature of this thing. It comes with a Fan/RGB hub, which is not compatible with any other fan brand. So unless your rig is all-corsair, other fans aren't compatible with the hub. Corsair's iCue software for fan and RGB control is buggy, but still one of the better programs for it. You don't technically need it, as both the pump and fans can run in hardware mode, but it does allow you to set various temp curves and lighting effects and whatnot. At full fan power it does get loud, but you should not need to run it at full power in most situations.

My first 360mn aio in along time got it to cool a r7 7700x which given the cpu ability to run cooler when undervolted and pbo being able to give control over boost clock which is where the high temps concur it can be overkill but this all depends on your themal overhead all in all i get temps in the 50s idle and with my current undervolt 60s when gaming if your considering this aio make sure your have a clerance so the tubes can rest below the pump unless mounted on the top of the case to pervent pump problems the tubing is long enough to maneuver around the cpu socket the include fans have a nice rgb effect and can run on a high rpm while the sound is noticeable the included corsair controller is just a step down from the xt model and can be daisy chained to another fan controller the icue software is good with support for some thrid party rgb software it comes with two fave plates to change and i think this model can upgraded to the lcd display one quick note am5 is supported the mount is easy with two wires for the pump power and connector for the fan controller iam giving it four stars because the radiator could be thicker and for the price point better fans should have been included but your paying for rgb and the corsair name

i bought this cooler when it dropped on sale and i dont regret it one bit, it is pretty silent, i have a i9 13900k and idle i sit around 33-37c when i play games i hover around 45-55 and it will jump a little bit higher but ive never seen it hit above 60c with this cooler it it amazing the rgb looks good, and on corsairs website while it is half the price of this you can get a lcd kit and have a lcd screen on the block of the pump which is pretty cool!

Ease if of installation and build quality is exceptional. I do not need an lcd display so why pay for it? Most importantly, the performance is outstanding. I am running my Core I9 12900K at 5.1 MHz @40c. It never went over 63c playing Cyberpunk at 3440x 1440. Ambient air temps were 64F. ( My rec room is very cool in the winter time.)

I replaced a 100i elite 240mm with this. The 150i elite xt pump runs at 2200 to 2600 rpm. This thing is very loud. Sounds like coil whine. Doesn’t matter if it’s set to quiet or extreme. My 100i was almost silent at extreme. My temps are great but the pump is louder than 9 case fans and 3 gpu fans. It’s not my gpu. That has no whine whatsoever. It’s the cool it pumps that Corsair uses that are loud compared to the company they used prior. If I wasn’t invested so heavily into corsairs cooling, fans etc. I’d swap to something else. This has been an issue for the last few years with some of corsairs AIO. It’s also a crap shoot if you’ll get one that doesn’t whir/hum like crazy. I’ve used h150i xt AIO on three different builds this year and 2 of the 3 are loud af. It’s not worth constantly swapping it or warranting them because you may get the same or worse. Corsair also claims it’s normal sound for them. So yeah great for cooling. Keeps my 13700k 50-60s while gaming. Where the 240 I was running would be 60-80c. Also the ML fans that I have in my case are quieter than the new AF elite ones that come with the AIO. It’s works well. The deepcool 720 is silent and runs a few C cooler. And is cheaper. Just doesn’t look as good.

Bought this for a Thermaltake Tower 300 case and it fit perfectly. Was very easy to install. Had rotate the face-plate on the water block by 90 degrees so it was the correct orientation in the case. Was a simple process of removing the face-plate and swap to another that came with. Stays quiet but keeps the CPU very cool. Also able to easily manage the LED colors of the fans and the waterblock.

Beautiful RGB and keeps my Intel 13700k nice and cool. Easy to install and can connect additional 3 fans to the included Corsair commander thing.

Looks awesome and works great very quiet and it was very easy to install

The Capellix Elite was simple to install. It works great I am no longer worried since my CPU fan does not scream at me for running a game. I had two problems one was Best Buy did not show it as an option for the Intel i7-13700F CPU. The other was I did not make sure the computer interface cable was completely attached,

I love this cooler!!! Some people will hate on it because its Corsair and people love to hate on big names for some reason. This cooler does its job while looking awesome and staying quiet!!! At idle my temps are around 35-38 and no more than 60c during heavy gaming. Application is fairly easy for a newb and it comes with pre applied thermal paste. I tried to keep everything uniform and go with All corsair products, so with great performance, this cooler was a no brainer!!

I don’t know why it’s so pricey. And I know it’s more than I need for my 5600x, but it sure does look clean in my build and keep that thing cooler than an ice cube in an igloo during a blizzard. Fairly easy install, mind which way the standoffs go in your mobo on the AM4 platform. My old man eyes thought they were the same diameter on either end.

My pcs was running hot i found out figured out my cpu aio cooler wasnt working anymore so i decided to grab this especially since my room gets pretty hot summer time. And let me tell you this keeps my pc nice and cool and it is pretty silent you can hear a pin drop. Definitely would recommend

Great cooling capabilities with awesome rgb. This aio has really helped to keep my cpu cool compared to air cooling. My average temps during heavy gaming sessions on an AMD Ryzen 7 5800x3d are in the mid 60's. Installation was super simple and overall this is a great aio cooler for any build.

Boy this thing fit in my case (Airflow 5000D) like a charm and if you're into the RBG, cant go wrong with this bad boy. Using it in 7800x3d and it keeps it cool even if using EXPO. Would highly recommend if it fits in your case and you need something that will cool off the latest CPUS and has the RGB flair!

I bought this for my brothers pc and its taking his temps way down and it looks great in his build. The icue software is easy to use and helps you keep track of everything and the face plate can be changed

Easy to install and comes with everything you'll need for any modern CPU. My temps never go past 88 with a 7800x3d running at full tilt. Make sure you have the case clearance for the radiator/fans and you'll be good to go

They do make one of the best aio period. Keeps my 13900k idle 32 degrees C. I did take off their thermal paste and put thermal grizzly kryonaut. If you can colab with them you two would be unstoppable. Now it was on the pricey side but you get what you pay for.

Happy with the way it looks, the low noise and helped cool my CPU temps with my I9-11th gen.

Using this to cool my new i7 1400K and it works great. Never above 70C. Just a bit pricey.
