CORSAIR Hydro Series H60 (CWCH60) High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler

Pros: Looks like a good cooling solution. Must smaller structure over the CPU so there's more room for the DDR3 DIMMs.

Cons: For the Intel CPU, this kit does provide all the needed mounting hardware. However, even though the H60 is suppose to support AMD AM3 sockets, in this case, Corsair decided not to provide the necessary heatsink bracket. The bracket usually comes with the CPU, but since, I'm replace an old fan which has a non-standard bracket, I don't have the bracket that the Corsair heat exchanger needs.

Pros: None

Cons: The Radiators screw hole stripped the first time! Now the pump don't run!

Other Thoughts: Wish It would had been better!

Pros: kept my i7 2700k in the 20s in haf X case ... for about 6 months. Silly pro actually; I didn't really realize the pump had died because the pump and block are a good heat sink. I dont OC but something tells me i could have safely gone into the 4's with this cooling solution.

Cons: see above - lasted 6 months ~ 6 hours use per day with random days off. pump was noisy from start and got louder and louder till i noticed temps climbed to high 30s and 40s and the pump was dead silent for as long as i can remember. It may have been dead for a few months now, luckally its only my gaming machine and i dont game very much anymore. rebate was also declined

Other Thoughts: I have a TT A80 big water but i read bad reviews on it as well. I'll say this, the H60 "appears" to be well built, where as the thermaltake unit i have feels so cheap i dont want to risk my gaming rig by putting something in it that may leak on my 480gtx's in sli and 300 dollar cpu. I may go back to stock cooler till a coupon comes up for a new LQ solution on newegg. I would give this unit a shot if it came up on a 50% or more sale; due to pump always being noisy i probably just got a flakey unit. discarded box after cuting out the sku, something tells me it will be an RMA headache.

Pros: Easily Modified to mount on 939 board, just use the AMD brackets and drill extra holes. Brackets are steel, so a simple dremmel wont do the job.
Super Quiet and good cooling performance - I only have the one 120mm fan in my case now, and I've achieve a 2.75GHz overclock on my Opteron 170.
Small and easy install

Cons: Doesn't have the size or capability of the larger coolers, has to be modified to add a GPU cooling loop

Pros: Small foot print, Decent temps - i5-3570k at 4.4Ghz, Stock fan in pull config (ambient temps at 25C) load around 60C, idle around 29C.

Easy to set up. Good design. Zero problems.

Cons: Every now and then the pump makes a slight humming noise. tubing is cheap and not very flexible. No option to expand.

Other Thoughts: With the raidiator being only 27mm thick, there is little capacity and you can only do so much OC'ing before you heatsoak and it stops cooling. But for an entry level cooling or as a silent option to the stock fans, this thing is GREAT.

Pros: very quiet and doesn't take up a huge amount of space.

Cons: This cooler died on me after 19 months of service. Computer was just fine then all of a sudden it just shut off. I tried restarting a few times but no luck. I thought the power supply had gone bad. Opened the case and restarted it again. The MB fault LED's indicated the CPU was overheating and touched the waterblock. It was very hot. Took this out and put in a tried and true standard Heatsink and fan and no more overheating for now.

Other Thoughts: Even though I liked the idea of liquid cooling, I believe either the coolant finally evaporated or the pump gave out. By going back to a standard heat-sink & fan combo the only thing I have to worry about is a $4 fan rather than having to replace an $80 cooling system. An honestly, I've never had a fan go bad for as long as I've been building systems which is a very long time.

Pros: the box was sexy?

Cons: the pump was DOA.

Pros: Surprisingly quiet, my casefans are all silent even at 100% putting this in didn't increase the level at all. This cooler is amazing, i haven't yet set up the cooler in a push pull setting currently i'm just using the fan that comes with it in a pull set up, my I5-2500k overclocked from 3.30 to 4.7ghz running prime 95 would not get over 60c. My old Cooler the artic freezer pro 13 would put me in the 70's without even overclocking. This was definitely worth the money. Going to be setting it up in a push pull set up here soon. Not only is my CPU cooler but because my CPU isn't fireball my mobo is cold as ice. I run at around 19-25C at no load, this is more due to my case set up, I do not have a mid tower case, my case is much smaller than a mid tower, air flow conditions are not the best i must say, i make do.

Cons: I haven't found any yet, i ran it at a stress test for a few hours and the temperatures didn't even fluctuate, this is a good cooler.

Other Thoughts: If your case is a mid tower or larger and you're airflow through the case is superb you will definitely love this. My case sucks and I'm still able to drop my temps ridiculously.

Pros: Sleek design, thinner rad (great for smaller case applications)
Push pull design. Quiet stock fan that it comes with. Install was a breeze. Water block looks great with a cutout on the side of the case! Hoses feel pretty buff and i dont feel like im going to break them any time soon.

Cons: You may have a problem installing as a top mount like i have on a Coolermaster Scout 2 case. was not enough room to clear CPU 8 pin power connector on a ASUS sabertooth 9900FX MOBO. Also side mount may be a problem with the tubes being a bit short and stiff, but i have never tried it.

Other Thoughts: Idles at 16c with push pull setup. Never gets too loud. Runs great IMO. I love this cooler.

Pros: Quiet Quiet Quiet Installs very easy on an am3+ mb bought on sale for 59.99 here.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: Never used liquid cooling before. This cooler paired with my Storm Scout 2 advanced, bought here at the same time. Keeps my FX 9350@4500mhz 16c at idle, and when playing a game like BF3, 39c max. On my old aftermarket heatsink it would get above 50c while gaming. With this, never above 54c in prime95. during stability testing. Did I say WOW.
