Corsair H80i

This review is from: CORSAIR Hydro Series H80i High Performance Water/Liquid CPU Cooler. 120mm
Pros:
Fans seem high quality.
Cons:
The cooler burst before I even got the CPU block attached.
Overall Review:
Everything seemed high quality, mounting seemed straight-forward. Got the 2 fans and the radiator mounted, and was placing the CPU block down. I got the first screw about halfway in when out of no where one of the tubes burst off the block and sprayed coolant ALL over my case and myself. Before i could even react the entire bottom of my case was a pool of liquid that reaked of sulphur. Completely soaked my motherboard, got inside my PSU, and continued to leak into the case until i was able to loosen the 4 screws on the radiator and take it out.
If you are considering buying this cooler, I would HIGHLY recommend you reconsider and go with one of the equally rated air coolers. There is only one reason to chose this cooler over an air alternative - noise. The reduction in noise is absolutely not worth the risk you're taking when you install this... an air cooler has no risk and cools your CPU just as well as an H80i will.
