As I started this review, I was very interested to see the performance figures. Particularly since I owned the previous model in this range and, with respect to Corsair, I wasn’t impressed. In this instance though, the Corsair H60 has, for me at least, completely redeemed the brand. The performance figures, while clearly not on the same level of 240mm or high-performance air-coolers are still exceptionally impressive. For standard performance, when pushed to the limit, the processor only achieved a temperature of 56C. Compared to a lot of other supposedly better coolers, this was a massive performance.
It is, for just a single fan AIO, only slightly below the Corsair H150i and that is a 360mm cooler. I think that alone speaks for just how good the Corsair H60 is for regular usage.
When overclocked, the Corsair H60 does drop down the list a little, but a cursory glance will show that it is amongst some impressive company. It even managed to outperform a lot of brands who many would believe would give better results. At maximum overclocked load, this cooler was only 3C over the powerhouse Noctua NH-D15S. That alone should tell you that this cooler is definitely more than a contender for your overclocking needs. Remember again that this is only a single fan cooler. It’s not a double or even twin.
With the impressive temperature figures, you might at this point be wondering where’s the catch. And yes, there is one. The Corsair H60 is a little louder than many of its counterparts at stock performance. A quick check of the charts though shows that it’s hardly a klaxon on your system either. In idle or gaming running, the cooler was impressively quiet and inside a chassis, I believe you would barely notice it running at all. In addition and something I did experience with prior Corsair AIO coolers, there is no gurgling on the pump-head.
You often find that single fan AIO coolers can get rather noisy when under heavy load. This is certainly a factor when you are running an overclock on your system. Again though, the Corsair H60 is highly impressive. It’s not as quiet as the be quiet! Dark Rock 4 range, but remember that they were specifically designed for noise reduction and in direct comparison the Corsair did much better on temperatures.
