Question 1

Does this come with thermal paste on it? I saw videos saying it comes pre applied.

Accepted Answer

It does, yes.

Question 2

I'm kinda new to PC building, and still learning all the Specs info. The Specs for this say the Fans cfm rating is 75 cfm, but the Specs on these fans alone on Newegg say they are 47.3 cfm. What is the difference?

Accepted Answer

The product specifications list the fan air flow as 75 CFM (Max) for the CORSAIR iCUE H150i ELITE CAPELLIX Liquid CPU Cooler. It's possible that the 47.3 CFM rating you found separately on Newegg refers to a different measurement condition or a different model of fans. The 75 CFM rating provided in the product specifications indicates the maximum air flow for the fans included with this specific cooler model.

Question 3

I see people have already asked this but I'm still not entirely clear.. I need to buy additional brackets in order to use this with an 13th gen i7?  Thanks!

Accepted Answer

Extra LGA 1700 brackets are required, contact the manufacturer for the bracket.

Question 4

Will this fit on Socket AM5?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since these do not use a replacement backplate, but attach to the one that comes on the mobo. Coolers that come with their own backplate are incompatible.

Question 5

Will this fit with the new am5 sockets?

Accepted Answer

The product specifications only mention compatibility with AMD sTR4, sTRX4, AM4, AM3, and AM2+ sockets. There is no mention of AM5 socket compatibility.

Question 6

Linux user here- will it work without Corsair's fan control software?  Can you just plug it in and expect it work?

Accepted Answer

The CORSAIR iCUE H150i ELITE CAPELLIX Liquid CPU Cooler comes with CORSAIR iCUE Commander CORE for precise control over speed and lighting. However, the product description mentions that the cooler has a High-Performance RGB Pump Head and Magnetic Levitation RGB Fans for extreme CPU cooling performance, suggesting that it can function to some extent without the iCUE software. Still, advanced features like fan speed adjustment and RGB synchronization might not be available without the software.
