Final Thoughts


Price

The Corsair H100i V2 is a high-end AIO with high-end performance and build quality, so as you might expect it comes with a premium price. You can pick one up at virtually any major retailer, and they’re certainly easy to find. We saw them at Scan.co.uk for around £110 including shipping, which isn’t exactly loose change, but given the performance we saw, it’s worth every penny.

Overview

If you take your systems cooling performance seriously, and you should, the H100i V2 from Corsair will more than get the job done. Not only does it decimate the heat at stock clocks, allowing you to run your system almost silently with low fan RPM and whisper quiet pump noise, it’ll also deliver exceptional cooling performance while overclocking. If you’re running a workstation or a gaming rig with an unlocked processor, you’re going to want to squeeze every last MHZ out of your CPU, making sure your workflow or FPS is as smooth as possible, and with a high-end cooler fitted, you can do that all day long and not worry about your system overheating. What’s great is that even when pushed for long periods, the H100i V2 still remains reasonably quiet.

build quality is rock solid, with thick tubing and heavy-duty braiding to keep it protected, as well as looking stylish. The radiator is standard fare for an AIO, but feels well made and the little decal on the side really completes the design so it’s sure to look great inside your rig. The pump design is great too, and by moving the tubes to the top, it’s also easier to install and you can easily get those thumbscrews in place over your motherboard on both Intel and AMD socket types.

The price isn’t exactly wallet-friendly, but find me an AIO water cooler with this level of performance that is! If you want high-end performance for your cooling needs, and durable and quiet fans, as well as slick aesthetics, you’re going to have to pay top prices for it.

Pros

  • Excellent build quality
  • Stylish design
  • Easy to install
  • Zero maintenance

  • None

Neutral

“Corsair continue to deliver rock-solid coolers with the H100i V2. As with the models that went before it, it’s one of the best all-round AIOs on the market, delivering excellent cooling and acoustic performance for high-end systems.”
