what's up everyone Jays two cents here we're gonna talk about Corsairs new AIO cooler the H 150 I Pro RGB saw this briefly at CES they had it in some systems there we didn't really get very hands-on with it I've actually had this for a couple of weeks now I'm just now getting around to it but I saved you guys the pain of watching me unboxing at least at least it's already over here put together so we'll talk about what's different what makes it pro and we'll see how well it performs the new DG seven series cases from EVGA off the PC enthusiast more of what they love like tempered glass side panels vertical GPU mount integrated RGB control board DG tuner and an awesome three year warranty to learn more about the DG seven series of cases from EVGA head to the link in the description below so it's a pretty basic run-of-the-mill AIO you got your ASA Tech pump right here with its copper baseplate much smaller pump design though like overall it's it's very tiny you've got your flexible tubing here with its paracord sleeve which looks really nice triple fan designs up to three hundred and sixty millimeter radiator looks like it's about a twenty five mil thick rad so it's definitely a slim rad making it fit in many more applications the fan is probably what's most different though with this series of a IO versus the older H series these are maglev bearing fans so not sleeve marrying fluid bearing ball bearing they are a maglev bearing so it's actually riding on a field of magnetism making them super cool and as you can see they no way you can see that they actually spin very very easily but they are static pressure optimized perfect for radiators of course they are PWM wired so you can plug them into your motherboard if you want unfortunately the cable that comes off the pump to plug into the fans is not detachable unlike the older H series coolers so if you decide not to use the wires coming off the pump you want to control with your motherboard or something then this is still gonna be plugged into the pump unfortunately this plug coming off the pump right here appears to be power in rpm circuit and then we have our receipt of power none of this is detachable the only thing that's actually detachable is the USB cable that comes with it because this is how you connect to Corsair link to control things like pump speed RGB color fan speed and all of that unfortunately you have all these wires coming off the pump it takes what's a otherwise a pretty basic and clean design and really clutters it up with all these wires but that's subjective I guess one thing I want to point out though is a lot of people tend to freak out at the idea of aluminum radiators let me show you this right here this is a copper base found them pretty much all AIO coolers with an aluminum rad so there's that but anyway these are maintenance-free they're not designed to be opened up and touched or played with or drained in any way whatsoever so in a nutshell that is that let's talk about brackets and compatibility here because unfortunately this does not support thread Ripper out of the box which i think is extremely disappointing considering the fact that this cooler launched a good five months or so after thread Ripper they had plenty of time to design a bracket because these are just brackets that connect to the bottom of the pump very very easily they just slide them up line them up and then lock it into place that's it so if you want to switch it over to the AMD bracket it is extremely easy so all they had to do is come up with a bracket design for thread Ripper now they say that they're gonna be incorporating a bracket in the future and I believe you can send a way for a bracket when it's ready if you're an existing owner I just don't think that plenty of time to get that ready but that's just me so I mean it's going to support all of your eleventh series sockets 13 Series 2011 2060 6 a.m. to 3 for FM's sockets all that stuff so it's basically got backwards compatibility all the way back to like the last 10 years starting from rise n down so it does support rise in though so the way they decided to support AMD is by having this bracket which uses the factory clip locations if you guys have ever installed an AMD cooler you know it's got two spring-loaded clips so instead of coming up with a pass-through backplate like they did from mainstream Intel they maintain the clips and then you have got somewhere in here you've got this bag of I'm not gonna take them out but you see you got this bag of extra screws and clips that way it just snaps down onto the AMD cooler making it kind of a one-piece solution to fit all AMD sockets instead of will- tr4 instead of having to have that slightly different offset like it has for Rison guys enough of that let's go ahead and install this beast and that's was capable of so this is corsair link and you can see we have a lot of information here on the screen we've got our motherboard temperatures all the temperature probes that are available to Corsair link will show here of course we've got our fan speeds pump speed all the information you could possibly want is here in its own graph on the Left right here you can see this is everything that's represented on the right so we can set warnings for different temperature settings on the motherboard so we can set motherboard warning temp CPU warning temps we got multiple profiles here I've got set to balance right now which is a pretty quiet mode these fans right here are a 400 to 1600 rpm Maglev fans so we when we said some max which is performance they're speeding up slow it's got a very smooth curve but you can see the everything just kind of reset right here on the recording to the RGB it was all set to white but each profile has its own color settings as well now obviously I've got the radiator set out in the open like this it's not in a case because I want to see what the absolute cooling capability of the unit itself is so obviously your results may vary based on what you're about to see depending on the kind of case that you have it in but by having it in the open air just like this and now it's really starting to blow means that we are only limiting the cooler by the cooler zone ability to cool if that makes sense so that's I mean this isn't like a whole in depth on how to use Corsair link this just has all kinds of options and stuff here the profile and I'm gonna set this to balanced for right now in this particular test because that's the way it shipped out of the box and I want to see how it performs if we just plug it in as is to see how well it actually performs okay so funny thing I was actually running prime95 the latest version I think it dropped one 52018 so brand-new version with my 8700 k I was running 4.7 all core overclocked at 1.3 to 3 volts I think it was about 20 minutes in the system just is shut down it didn't trip a breaker or anything it powered right back on but I tribute that to possibly overheating vrm because we are in an open air test bench and the VRMs were almost too hot to touch the the heat sinks worse now I have this fan blowing down on them just to be safe but if we look here at 8a 64 now you can see it's pretty damn consistent we didn't really see a rise over time this has been running for 22 minutes so we've got about 45 minutes of stress testing that has gone on on this so far so like I said we did the stock clock so I went straight to the 4.7 overclock on all cores and if we take a look at the statistics you can see these are the temps we're running right now cores are sitting in the 70s and 80s these are the maximum temperatures ever achieved so we're looking at upper 80s and the highest and those are the peaks if we look at this right here these are these high peaks where it jumps up momentarily and yeah so if we look at our averages though looking pretty damn good the average on the package was 68 point five and down into the mid to low 70s now these Simpson things are actually not that bad considering the fact that we were set to the balanced mode alright not even on performance and balance mode it was the RPMs on the fan we're sitting oh you can see right here look at 660 rpm 714 rpm so this is kind of the worst case scenario we move this to performance mode then the fans definitely start to ramp up you'll see the lights turn off this is learning a new profile the pump is just change to the pump speeds up and this speeds up based on temperatures but if we go back over here to Corsair we look at the fluid Tim because through the fluid temp even under this load is 29.2 see and we are still running right now on a 264 so yeah that's actually not to be honest I know it's a trial version support your devs Mikey expired I know I'm a bad guy but anyway it's incredibly flat so what you can see is we kind of met our our max temperatures in like the first I don't know 90 seconds and then as you can see it maintained very very good temperatures so we're about gaming though let me go and stop this what I want to show you too is how fast the temperatures will drop back down once we stop the test so yeah it's incredibly it's incredibly fast I mean look we're already back down into the 30s right here on our cores one course sitting at 52 it's because it's still running something on that particular core this one will drop back down eventually I kind of noticed this with the 8,700 cake or three just likes to say really warm when things are sort of running but anyway you can see what Corsair link check this out back into the 30s very very quickly the package is down to 52 and dropping quickly and look at the fluid temp look how fast this starts to drop see how that's just dropping kind of a tenth of a C about every second second and a half not bad not bad for an AO and then with having benchmark running you can see our temperatures don't really move very much at all you might notice one core sort of bounce around same thing kind of happens with games where the CPU is not under a huge load in gaming you can see our GPU obviously temperatures are going up because the GPU is obviously being stressed in this particular test so all in all I mean the cooler is definitely doing its job if they can keep an 80 700 K that's overclocked to four point seven on all cores running about one point three volts cool under the lowest not lowest necessarily abut 650 ish rpm fan speed pump at its lowest speed where noise was sort of the bias rather than cooling performance a managed to say about 20 C underneath our TJ Max or our thermal junction max on the CPU then I think it's definitely doing a great job the ML bearing fans are nice and quiet as expected I've used some ml fans on quite a few things anyway there it is your results may vary keep in mind open air test bench as well as a aftermarket thermal paste installed so you might see a couple of see increase depend on your case airflow so that's something to keep in mind but when you take into account just the cooler and what it's capable of doing in this open air environment I think of course there has done a good job at providing a CP or a CPU cooler that can keep all CPUs with the exception of third rep third third repper thread Ripper cool until that bracket comes out so there you go guys the h1 50i Pro RGB from Corsair links on where to buy is down in the description below and if you guys have any other coolers you think I should check out make sure you comment down below on what we should get and we'll test it anyway we're gonna go guys thanks for watching and as low as we'll see you in the next one
