00:00:07.359 --> 00:00:13.799
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the Corsair

00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:16.400
h80i so this is the replacement for the

00:00:13.799 --> 00:00:23.359
Corsair h80 which is different from the Hadi in a couple of key ways so number

00:00:19.400 --> 00:00:26.160
one is that the h80 is completely eyess

00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:32.640
it has no eyes wow worst joke ever right but

00:00:29.599 --> 00:00:37.680
that's what makes this channel

00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:39.640
great yes okay moving right along what

00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:44.800
is the key difference between the Hadi and the H number one Corsair link so

00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:48.800
Corsair link is a software feature that Corsair has built in to the hardware

00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:53.280
that allows you to do all kinds of cool stuff like monitoring your uh coolant

00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:58.239
temperatures changing your fan speed cool cool stuff and if you have other

00:00:55.160 --> 00:01:00.079
corer components like their ax1200i for

00:00:58.239 --> 00:01:02.719
example power supply then you can can monitor all kinds of other stuff like

00:01:01.480 --> 00:01:07.439
you can monitor your power supply temperature your rails all kinds of neat

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:11.159
stuff with Corsair link fans if you have the Corsair link module you can monitor

00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:14.400
and control your fan set fan control curves quick start guide shows you how

00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:18.560
to do a bunch of cool stuff like mounting it to things okay that's

00:01:17.240 --> 00:01:24.799
important if you don't Mount this to your CPU this product will be useless to

00:01:21.520 --> 00:01:28.439
you it is compatible with both Intel and

00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:30.840
AMD and it has a lot of plastic inside

00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:36.840
this stuff will kill your baby and there is a warning all over it plastic bags

00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:39.280
are not toys Corsair believes in not

00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:44.280
killing babies this message was brought to you by

00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:45.960
Corsair or something okay this is just a

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

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:57.280
thing about the H the next cool thing about the Hadi is

00:01:54.159 --> 00:01:59.560
the inclusion of a way better mounting

00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:03.640
mechanism for switching between Intel and AMD so check this out all you got to

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

00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:11.800
system and uh you know you just kind of

00:02:09.160 --> 00:02:16.480
go like this and you're all like yeah I'm making this look harder

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

00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:24.519
here there you go so it's magnetic you take the Intel retention thing you put

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

00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:33.599
CPU my bad my bad bam AMD down

00:02:30.519 --> 00:02:35.280
no problem magnetic very cool very easy

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

00:02:37.200 --> 00:02:43.879
original h70 the mounting mechanism on that thing where you had to like hold

00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.720
the thing on the back and position the thing just right and have the little

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

00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:56.120
screwdriver no no no we're done with that magnetic mounting easy back plate

00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:59.280
all the hardware you need is included here and it's very stylish looking

00:02:57.599 --> 00:03:02.640
Hardware I might say check out these thumb screws those are just gorgeous see

00:03:01.440 --> 00:03:08.400
these are the little nice finishing touches that I appreciate um LGA 2011

00:03:06.519 --> 00:03:12.280
compatibilities provided by this these pieces right here and then all the other

00:03:10.200 --> 00:03:18.159
sockets are dealt with with the back plate which has adjustable uh width

00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:21.760
right here so you can do 775 1155 1156

00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:23.440
and 1366 no big deal and then AMD is

00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:26.760
with a couple loops and couple thumb screws it's you know it's complicated

00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:32.599
you guys wouldn't understand don't worry about it uh the third key thing about

00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:39.040
the h80 oh this is cool look at that I think they uh I think they

00:03:36.480 --> 00:03:44.640
increased the uh or decreased the fpi the density looks like it okay so this

00:03:42.640 --> 00:03:49.159
is a much more silence optimized radiator assuming I'm not completely

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

00:03:51.799 --> 00:03:57.599
much more silence optimized radiator which means performance shouldn't suffer

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

00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:05.400
going to perform pretty close once you start pumping some air flow through them

00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:11.159
and once you get down to lower RPMs on your fans this will pull itself away

00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:12.720
from a denser 120 mm radiator so I said

00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:17.160
the radiator was a thicker style radiator this will perform significantly

00:04:14.760 --> 00:04:20.720
better than something like an h60 or H50 which has that thin Radiator in fact

00:04:18.919 --> 00:04:24.320
most of the pre-done water coolers on the market use thin RADS because they do

00:04:23.080 --> 00:04:29.720
offer better compatibility however the drawback for

00:04:26.919 --> 00:04:34.160
them is that they do not perform as well as well okay speaking of performance

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

00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:44.160
these swiveling mounts right here which give you lots of flexibility in terms of

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

00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:53.520
you can twist these up as much as you want will not Kink awesome awesome stuff

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

00:04:56.080 --> 00:05:02.440
changed as well that's totally red

00:05:01.160 --> 00:05:07.160
that's totally redundant that's totally

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

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

00:05:13.440 --> 00:05:19.960
itself the Corsair link module is inside here as well as the pump and the CPU

00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:23.080
block so you can see the copper base so there's spins in there and stuff

00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:27.440
pre-applied high quality thermal compound and here we have a couple of

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

00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:36.440
connector that plugs into your motherboard that is how your cooler

00:05:34.880 --> 00:05:41.520
interfaces with your computer and that is how the software controls everything

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

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

00:05:49.080 --> 00:05:54.639
okay so those guys plug in here and you can actually get an additional one if

00:05:52.639 --> 00:06:00.639
you want you can plug in additional fans should you so desire but it comes with

00:05:56.759 --> 00:06:02.160
two of Corsair's new style fan so do

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

00:06:05.800 --> 00:06:09.800
additional hoopla going

00:06:10.840 --> 00:06:17.440
on the last thing that is a major improvement over the original h80 is

00:06:15.599 --> 00:06:22.560
these fans now these are slightly downgraded versions of

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

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

00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:36.160
find one there I found one okay no wrong

00:06:32.479 --> 00:06:38.240
one there I found one no wrong one you

00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:42.560
got to be kidding me here where are my SP

00:06:39.280 --> 00:06:45.800
1220s slick did you take them okay

00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:47.599
there's an sp120 okay so SP 1220s have

00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:51.720
color change rings around them they come with a few different Rings they have

00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:56.960
rubber mounts up here see the full like corner is filled with rubber and I think

00:06:55.120 --> 00:07:01.120
that's pretty much the only key difference because the blade design is

00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:04.440
what's most most important about a fan so these are slightly costed down

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

00:07:07.919 --> 00:07:14.000
than what have been included on previous generation Corsair liquid cooling

00:07:11.520 --> 00:07:17.479
products they're awesome and you should use them in push pull on your h80 as

00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:21.919
long as you have enough room in your chassis otherwise you can just use one

00:07:19.400 --> 00:07:24.919
they are pressure optimized fans so you don't have to worry about cranking up

00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:29.919
the RPMs in order to get great performance out of your liquid cooling

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

00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:39.440
Corsair link better fans well-designed

00:07:35.919 --> 00:07:41.319
radiator and thicker tubes and I guess

00:07:39.440 --> 00:07:44.840
that's actually oh yeah and the easier retention mechanism I think that is

00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:48.520
enough that they probably could have called it an h85 or an h90 if they'd

00:07:46.960 --> 00:07:52.199
really wanted to but who knows maybe they're you know saving that for

00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:56.120
something even more impressive either way thanks for checking out my unboxing
