Great AIO for users who can actually fit it

on January 20, 2017

Posted by: Papawolf

I bought the H80i about 2 years ago from another store.

Pros: It does what it does. It's a great little AIO (All in one) water cooler that supports as much cooling as larger air based CPU coolers. Installation takes something to get used to if you haven't done it before (This was my first water cooler). The push-pull configuration of the twin fans on the radiator provide great cooling. A great plus is the ability to control the fan via the USB header on the motherboard. You can monitor temp, set fan speeds, and change the RGB LED to suit your needs.

Cons: MEASURE TWICE, CUT ONCE.

Make sure your board supports this (or any other) cooler before purchasing. Then check if there is enough case room to fit the cooler and where you will place it. Because of the twin fan configuration, the overall thickness of the combo may cause issues. I strongly suggest reading types of configurations and find the one best suited for you.

If you don't mind noise coming from your PC, then this AIO is fine. The fans really can get loud when running the computer hot. Although, this is from my experience and I am overclocking my computer from 3.5 to 4.2 GHz

Conclusion: First time buying this (or any) aftermarket cooler? Do your homework and check if your board can handle it, and if your computer can actually fit it. Other than that, this AIO water cooler has lasted me over 2 years with an overclocked computer and has never failed me. It does a great job in cooling the CPU when I'm running games at High settings, although it does tend to get loud when I'm really pushing my computer.

Happy Gaming.
