Corsair H90 - 1 x 140 Millimeter Watercooler Review

Conclusion
| General | + | - | |
| Corsairs H90 closed-loop watercooler was really able to convince us. Not on the performance was excellent, the build quality as well as the noise level were very good too. It really doesn't matter what you're looking at when you have the H90 in your hands. The only thing that could have been done better is the surface of the cooling block. This one could have been mirror lapped, altough that would be only for the looks and doesn't affect the cooling performance. Also the pump has been a great choice, since its only causing a very silent humming noise, you won't hear, when it's in a case. | - Cooling capacity - Noise level | ||
| Installation | + | - | |
| The installation process is very easy and there are very few coolers which are easier to install. If you decide to buy this all-in-one watercooler and you own a case with at least one 140 millimeter fan slot you'll be able to install the H90. | - Super easy - Compatible with Intel and AMD sockets | ||
| Performance | + | - | |
| During our tests we used the fan, which was included in delivery as well as another one which we took from our H110 sample. If you drive these 140 millimeter fans at 7 Volt they are very silent and at 12 Volt (1'500 rpm) they can be described as well audible. A closer look at the test results shows that the H90 has been able to reach top positions in both our comparison charts. | - Very good cooling capacity - 4-Pin PWM | ||
| Recommendation | + | - | |
| If you should be thinking about buying an all-in-one watercooler with 140 millimeter form factor, then the H90 from Corsair is a great choice. These days the H90 ships for CHF 100.- (est. EUR 80.-) which definitely is a fair price tag. Last but not least there is the very aggressive price of this product, which is about CHF 120.- (est. EUR 100.-). |
