Throughout testing, Load Line Calibration will be set to level 6 (turbo), CPU power limits and c-states disabled in BIOS and all CPU Fans/pumps set to maximum RPM to find the raw thermal performance of each cooler. Adjust fan and pump speeds, control and synchronize your cooler's RGB lighting with all iCUE-compatible devices, and monitor CPU and coolant temperatures, all from a single intuitive interface. Powerful cooling: It can keep your CPU cool even under heavy loads, thanks to its 280mm radiator, thermally optimized copper cold plate, and powerful AF RGB ELITE fans. Not a great deal has changed with the core design of AIO CPU coolers over the past few years, usually, a pump is mounted on top of the CPU block, tubes carry coolant to and from a radiator with two or more fans helping to dissipate the heat.

Reliably Radiant: The high-quality LCD display stays bright throughout its lifespan, without suffering from the screen burn-in or luminosity degradation experienced with many OLEDs or lower-grade displays. Light up your system with 33 ultra-bright CAPELLIX LEDs in the pump head and 16 fan RGB LEDs, for mesmerising, customisable lighting effects. VCORE and run the tests one final time – this should push the limits of the cooling performance of even the very best CPU coolers.

The result using the “extreme” preset, which increases the pump speed and allows for a faster ramp and higher RPM from the 140 mm fans, was fantastic.You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Mounting hardware for all the latest sockets from AMD and Intel is supplied - including Threadripper - and in keeping with other Corsair AIO coolers, the whole package is backed by a five-year warranty as standard. Also check out eTeknix YouTube, where you'll find our latest video reviews, event coverage and features in 4K! Even though Corsair states that the ML140 RGB fans included with the H115i Elite Capellix should run up to 2000 RPM, no matter how we configured the fans, we could only reach around 1800 RPM which produced noticeably lower noise levels compared with previous Corsair AIOs equipped with these fans. The H115i ELITE CAPELLIX doesn’t just have standout looks from its ARGB fans and new CAPELLIX LED-infused pump, as the cooling performance using the “extreme” preset was fantastic.

An optimal cold plate design and a high-density stack of 128 micro-skived fins-per-inch provides highly efficient cooling at all loads. Asetek often makes minor adjustments to its pump design, the company is on to its 7 th generation AIO pump solution now, but we don’t see a huge thermal performance increase from one generation to the next, improvements are more focused on acoustics, reliability and efficiency. I think the real key aspect that sets the Corsair iCUE H115i RGB ELITE apart from the competition is its 5-year warranty. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. The power efficiency and tiny package of Capellix LEDs allow them to be used to great effect in devices such as wireless keyboards, memory modules and AIO coolers, therefore increasing the output and effects of the RGB embellishment.CORSAIR AF RGB ELITE PWM fans produce incredible low-noise airflow with speeds up to 1,700 RPM, using AirGuide technology for concentrated cooling to disperse heat along a 280mm radiator.
