00:00:07,359 --> 00:00:13,799
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the Corsair

2
00:00:10,679 --> 00:00:16,400
h80i so this is the replacement for the

3
00:00:13,799 --> 00:00:23,359
Corsair h80 which is different from the Hadi in a couple of key ways so number

4
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:26,160
one is that the h80 is completely eyess

5
00:00:23,359 --> 00:00:32,640
it has no eyes wow worst joke ever right but

6
00:00:29,599 --> 00:00:37,680
that's what makes this channel

7
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:39,640
great yes okay moving right along what

8
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:44,800
is the key difference between the Hadi and the H number one Corsair link so

9
00:00:42,160 --> 00:00:48,800
Corsair link is a software feature that Corsair has built in to the hardware

10
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:53,280
that allows you to do all kinds of cool stuff like monitoring your uh coolant

11
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:58,239
temperatures changing your fan speed cool cool stuff and if you have other

12
00:00:55,160 --> 00:01:00,079
corer components like their ax1200i for

13
00:00:58,239 --> 00:01:02,719
example power supply then you can can monitor all kinds of other stuff like

14
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:07,439
you can monitor your power supply temperature your rails all kinds of neat

15
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:11,159
stuff with Corsair link fans if you have the Corsair link module you can monitor

16
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:14,400
and control your fan set fan control curves quick start guide shows you how

17
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:18,560
to do a bunch of cool stuff like mounting it to things okay that's

18
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:24,799
important if you don't Mount this to your CPU this product will be useless to

19
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:28,439
you it is compatible with both Intel and

20
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:30,840
AMD and it has a lot of plastic inside

21
00:01:28,439 --> 00:01:36,840
this stuff will kill your baby and there is a warning all over it plastic bags

22
00:01:33,439 --> 00:01:39,280
are not toys Corsair believes in not

23
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:44,280
killing babies this message was brought to you by

24
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,960
Corsair or something okay this is just a

25
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:50,960
bad unboxing so far so don't worry I'm going to clean it up um the next cool

26
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:57,280
thing about the H the next cool thing about the Hadi is

27
00:01:54,159 --> 00:01:59,560
the inclusion of a way better mounting

28
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:03,640
mechanism for switching between Intel and AMD so check this out all you got to

29
00:02:02,119 --> 00:02:09,160
do is you want to go oh yeah I want to put like some Intel CPUs in my

30
00:02:06,159 --> 00:02:11,800
system and uh you know you just kind of

31
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:16,480
go like this and you're all like yeah I'm making this look harder

32
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:20,480
than it is at this point in time there you go what bam oh it's cuz the plastic

33
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:24,519
here there you go so it's magnetic you take the Intel retention thing you put

34
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:30,519
it on there boom done you want to be like Oh shoot no no no I I got an AMD

35
00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:33,599
CPU my bad my bad bam AMD down

36
00:02:30,519 --> 00:02:35,280
no problem magnetic very cool very easy

37
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:40,080
to hold things in place you don't I mean remember the guys do you remember the

38
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:43,879
original h70 the mounting mechanism on that thing where you had to like hold

39
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,720
the thing on the back and position the thing just right and have the little

40
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:51,239
things in the little grooves and you have to like have a third ARM coming out of your shoulder to like screw in the

41
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:56,120
screwdriver no no no we're done with that magnetic mounting easy back plate

42
00:02:54,599 --> 00:02:59,280
all the hardware you need is included here and it's very stylish looking

43
00:02:57,599 --> 00:03:02,640
Hardware I might say check out these thumb screws those are just gorgeous see

44
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:08,400
these are the little nice finishing touches that I appreciate um LGA 2011

45
00:03:06,519 --> 00:03:12,280
compatibilities provided by this these pieces right here and then all the other

46
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:18,159
sockets are dealt with with the back plate which has adjustable uh width

47
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:21,760
right here so you can do 775 1155 1156

48
00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:23,440
and 1366 no big deal and then AMD is

49
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:26,760
with a couple loops and couple thumb screws it's you know it's complicated

50
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:32,599
you guys wouldn't understand don't worry about it uh the third key thing about

51
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:39,040
the h80 oh this is cool look at that I think they uh I think they

52
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:44,640
increased the uh or decreased the fpi the density looks like it okay so this

53
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:49,159
is a much more silence optimized radiator assuming I'm not completely

54
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:53,560
Incorrect and talking out of my you know that thing um it looks like this is a

55
00:03:51,799 --> 00:03:57,599
much more silence optimized radiator which means performance shouldn't suffer

56
00:03:56,159 --> 00:04:01,239
much at all because as long as you got a nice thick 120 mil radiator they're all

57
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:05,400
going to perform pretty close once you start pumping some air flow through them

58
00:04:02,879 --> 00:04:11,159
and once you get down to lower RPMs on your fans this will pull itself away

59
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,720
from a denser 120 mm radiator so I said

60
00:04:11,159 --> 00:04:17,160
the radiator was a thicker style radiator this will perform significantly

61
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:20,720
better than something like an h60 or H50 which has that thin Radiator in fact

62
00:04:18,919 --> 00:04:24,320
most of the pre-done water coolers on the market use thin RADS because they do

63
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:29,720
offer better compatibility however the drawback for

64
00:04:26,919 --> 00:04:34,160
them is that they do not perform as well as well okay speaking of performance

65
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:39,400
Corsair has upgraded the coolant pipes from 1/4 in to 38 in and they have kept

66
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:44,160
these swiveling mounts right here which give you lots of flexibility in terms of

67
00:04:41,919 --> 00:04:48,120
where you want to sort of Route the tubes and how you want to do that um and

68
00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:53,520
you can twist these up as much as you want will not Kink awesome awesome stuff

69
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:58,080
love to see that so the finish on it has also changed a little bit as well also

70
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:02,440
changed as well that's totally red

71
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:07,160
that's totally redundant that's totally

72
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:10,240
redundant that's to no I'm just kidding okay see slick called me on it he

73
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:15,600
brought the camera up here I could have gotten away with it for a couple more if he hadn't done that okay so on the unit

74
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:19,960
itself the Corsair link module is inside here as well as the pump and the CPU

75
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:23,080
block so you can see the copper base so there's spins in there and stuff

76
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:27,440
pre-applied high quality thermal compound and here we have a couple of

77
00:05:26,199 --> 00:05:31,800
different things so we've got some cables for this so I can show you guys check this out so there's a USB

78
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:36,440
connector that plugs into your motherboard that is how your cooler

79
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:41,520
interfaces with your computer and that is how the software controls everything

80
00:05:38,840 --> 00:05:46,000
next we've got this guy right here which is a breakout cable so you can plug in

81
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:51,080
both of the fans that you want to wait hold on this for the yeah there we go

82
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:54,639
okay so those guys plug in here and you can actually get an additional one if

83
00:05:52,639 --> 00:06:00,639
you want you can plug in additional fans should you so desire but it comes with

84
00:05:56,759 --> 00:06:02,160
two of Corsair's new style fan so do

85
00:06:00,639 --> 00:06:09,800
that right there so you can plug in up to two four pin pwm fans without any

86
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,800
additional hoopla going

87
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:17,440
on the last thing that is a major improvement over the original h80 is

88
00:06:15,599 --> 00:06:22,560
these fans now these are slightly downgraded versions of

89
00:06:20,639 --> 00:06:26,520
corsairs yeah I can't find one but here's a box you'll have to sort of

90
00:06:24,280 --> 00:06:30,080
imagine that there's an SP 1220 in there see there's a sort you know what I can

91
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:36,160
find one there I found one okay no wrong

92
00:06:32,479 --> 00:06:38,240
one there I found one no wrong one you

93
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:42,560
got to be kidding me here where are my SP

94
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:45,800
1220s slick did you take them okay

95
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:47,599
there's an sp120 okay so SP 1220s have

96
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:51,720
color change rings around them they come with a few different Rings they have

97
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:56,960
rubber mounts up here see the full like corner is filled with rubber and I think

98
00:06:55,120 --> 00:07:01,120
that's pretty much the only key difference because the blade design is

99
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:04,440
what's most most important about a fan so these are slightly costed down

100
00:07:02,879 --> 00:07:09,680
because they don't have the Rubber and they don't have the interchangeable blades but these are way better fans

101
00:07:07,919 --> 00:07:14,000
than what have been included on previous generation Corsair liquid cooling

102
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:17,479
products they're awesome and you should use them in push pull on your h80 as

103
00:07:16,319 --> 00:07:21,919
long as you have enough room in your chassis otherwise you can just use one

104
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:24,919
they are pressure optimized fans so you don't have to worry about cranking up

105
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:29,919
the RPMs in order to get great performance out of your liquid cooling

106
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:35,919
unit and that's pretty much it what else is there to say about it so in summary

107
00:07:32,319 --> 00:07:39,440
Corsair link better fans well-designed

108
00:07:35,919 --> 00:07:41,319
radiator and thicker tubes and I guess

109
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:44,840
that's actually oh yeah and the easier retention mechanism I think that is

110
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:48,520
enough that they probably could have called it an h85 or an h90 if they'd

111
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:52,199
really wanted to but who knows maybe they're you know saving that for

112
00:07:50,199 --> 00:07:56,120
something even more impressive either way thanks for checking out my unboxing
