With the Hydro H100i PRO RGB, Corsair adds another all-in-one watercooler with 240mm radiator in its portfolio. In this case you can get an AiO with 240 millimeter aluminium radiator and two PWM fans for 119 Euro. Furthermore there is the same pump block that we have seen on the 360mm version. We're more than just curious to see if Corsair is capable of convincing with this new cooler.




Today we have the pleasure to check out Corsair's Hydro H100i PRO RGB liquid cooling system, which, according to Corsair, should be compatible even with medium size cases and tighter spaces thanks to its 276 mm tall and 27 mm thick 240 mm radiator. Apart from that there are kink-resistant tubes, which allow for routing within smaller cases and tighter spaces. Overall this cooler is well made and it looks nice and clean. The most unique feature about it is probably the RGB lightning of the pump which is customizable via Corsair LINK software. The build quality is also on a really high level. The bundle includes two 120 mm PWM fans with gray wings and black frame. Mounting system supports most, if not all, recent Intel and AMD socket CPUs.

The Hydro H100i PRO RGB is actually Corsair's new liquid cooler designed and manufactured by Asetek OEM.



As you can see from the picture, manufacturing quality of the Hydro H100i PRO RGB is on the level it should be. It's not exceptional but still on good level for a 119 Euro all-in-one cooler. The radiator measures 276 x 27 mm and is made from aluminium. The cooler itself features a copper coldplate with pre-applied thermal compound. To be a bit more precise the dimensions of the Hydro H100i PRO RGB are 276 x 120 mm x 27mm (W x L x H). The fans also come with a new design that works well with the rest of the Hydro H100i PRO RGB AiO cooler. Corsair decided to pair the Hydro H100i PRO RGB with two 120x25mm ML fans with seven blades.
