Product Reviews
Great Product for Some
I purchased this product because I have a Dell 755 Optiplex at home that has a BTX motherboard installed in the case. Now, for those of you who don't know, BTX mother boards are inverted and generally use a heatsink cover connected directly to a 120mm case fan for cooling. This system is very efficient, however it takes up loads of space. I need that space for a big juicy video card. So, after reading a few reviews and looking at size specifications I had determined that the H50 was the perfect solution to my space problem. I would remove the giant heatsink/duct system and in return have enough space to install my brand new 4890 1GB. My plans were halted when I discovered that Corsair does not support BTX motherboards even if they have LGA 775 socket processor. I also discovered that you need to order and pay for the shipping of the AM2/AM3 brackets if you need them. I'm severely disappointed in the documentation for this product as the BTX form factor is a very popular one amongst OEM manufacturers. It's very unusual for Corsair to be so careless as they are usually so good about producing high quality products with adequate documentation.
I have decided to purchase a new case and motherboard for my computer. The H50 when used with the proper motherboard is a very good product. It provides an effortless solution for liquid cooling, and after purchasing my new case and motherboard I'm very pleased with this product.
it rocks
the best cooler you can buy actually, just save your effort and the space needed inside and buy this cooler, on i7 920 @ 4.0 GHZ idle is 49 to 50 c and load is on 72 - 74 c , knowing that i live in egypt and its really so hot in here, yet this cooler is amazing, make sure u have enough ventaliation in your case.
A Cool 4ghz I7 920!
This is a sweet setup, cools Core i7 920 overclocked at 3.7ghz idle 39c load 53c. I replaced the 1700rpm fan with a 2700rpm silverstone fan with fan controller for higher airflow, so I could overclock to 4ghz. With ambient temp at 76f, it cooled at 34c and 55c load, when it was closer to 80f it cooled at 43c idle 70-80c at load.
Test were done with 1080p encode pass1 and 2pass for 3 hours. I believe in the winter when ampbient temps are at 68f it will cool more like 29c-32c idle and 47-50c
at load. It sure makes encoding fast 45-50fps pass1 and 24-32fps pass2. Quality of build is top notch, radiator solid as well. Only recomendation is to get a higher cfm fan for better cooling. For the money much better than big air cooler. Results will very depending on your case and setup. Mine was with the Lian Li pc-v351 cube case. 120mm fan pulls air from the front, radiator attatch to other side, brings cool air through radiator then out the back of the case, although the radiator for this case sticks out the side 1/2" so I had to mod the side for an opening to compensate.
