Conclusion

General + -
Overall, the Corsair Hydro H75 Series is a very good product with exceptional quality, especially considering that we did not like the manufacturing quality on the Hydro H90 that we had a chance to see earlier. It also offers a really good cooling capacity while maintaining silent operation and good performance.   - Cooling capacity
- Noise levels
- Quality
- PWM
 
 
Installation   + -
The installation could not be more simpler, as it is very easy, practical and pretty straightforward. With two included Intel and AMD mounting toolless systems, it should be quite easy even for less technical users. The only drawback that we could find is that it is unfortunately not compatible with LGA 775 socket, which is not a great deal as these are quite old CPUs but still. The thermal paste is pre-applied and although we would like to see it included in the box, this makes the installation much easier for an average user.   - Easy and practical
- Compatible Intel and AMD
- Pre-applied thermal compound
- No LGA 775 compatibility
 
Performance   + -
The Corsair Hydro H75 series has a very good cooling performance in every scenario, including 7V and 12V as well as PWM mode. We tested the Hydro H75 in push and pull configuration since Corsair provided two fans with the Hydro H75. The performance did not change a bit with two or single fan configuration and while the Pull&Push is definitely a bit louder, it is still very silent in PWM mode.   - Cooling performances  
 
Noise Levels   + -
While the pump on the Hydro H90 was silent but audible, the pump on the Corsair Hydro H75 is even more impressive with almost noiseless operation. The entire Hydro H75 AIO setup is noiseless most of the time and the noise does not climb any higher when CPU is under heavy load in PWM mode.   - Noiseless pump
- Noise levels
 
 
Recommendation / Price   + -
With all this in mind, we simply have no choice but to recommend the Corsair Hydro H75 series AIO water cooler, and we certainly do it with a great pleasure. With price of 66 Euros, it is a bit more expensive than the competition but considering great performance which is almost noiseless even under load as well as the exceptional manufacturing quality and two fans, the price does not seem that much and it is definitely justified.   - Price  
 
Rating
We gave the Hydro H75 from Corsair 4.5 out of 5 stars.
