00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:17,359
welcome to my unboxing and first look at the Corsair h110 this is a

2
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:19,680
280 mm liquid cooler from Corsair it is

3
00:00:17,359 --> 00:00:23,680
an all-in-one pre-filled liquid cooler which means it's pretty much zero

4
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:28,400
maintenance uh within its reasonably expected lifespan of how long you would

5
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:34,040
have that computer and it is simple to install as long as you pick out a case

6
00:00:31,199 --> 00:00:37,680
that it is compatible with as we open up the box we find everything packed in a

7
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:42,399
neat eco-friendly package so this is using sort of brown paper cardboard

8
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:46,640
rather than going heavy on the foam even things like the radiator itself are not

9
00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:50,800
packed in foam it's just a a paper recyclable material which I do like to

10
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:56,960
see also you have a warranty card that tells you not a whole lot but it's okay

11
00:00:54,079 --> 00:01:00,280
because on the duration of warranty well it depends anywhere from 2 years to

12
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:05,239
Lifetime it's okay though because tells you right on the outside of the box that

13
00:01:02,079 --> 00:01:06,799
it is a 5-year guarantee from Corsair

14
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:13,560
Inside the Box we find a number of things including two 140 mm fans it

15
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:18,360
should be noted that unlike the Corsair 100i these are not Corsair designed fans

16
00:01:16,320 --> 00:01:23,200
I mean they're Corsair fans but they don't have the flat blades like the SP

17
00:01:20,759 --> 00:01:27,439
Series so they're using more of what we saw on Corsair's last generation liquid

18
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:32,399
coolers in terms of the blade design okay they are four pin pwm fans however

19
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:35,600
and they do have uh black ribbon cables so they're going to go well with your

20
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:40,360
system pretty much no matter what I mean Corsair is uh is so good at making sure

21
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:43,920
that their components are not only high performance but also are held to a

22
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:47,799
different standard in terms of Aesthetics for mounting hardware you've

23
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:54,119
got everything you need for pretty much every socket you could possibly need

24
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:57,320
including fm1 fm2 am3 am3 plus am2 am2

25
00:01:54,119 --> 00:02:02,200
plus LGA 1156 LGA 1155

26
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:04,039
lga775 LGA 1366 and LGA 2011 the

27
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,240
instructions that are included are very straightforward and again we're used to

28
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:12,000
seeing this and if you've installed something like a Corsair h70 or H50 in

29
00:02:09,959 --> 00:02:17,599
the past you'll pretty much already know how to use all of this stuff one of the

30
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:19,200
challenging things with the Corsair 100

31
00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:25,080
or rather h110 is case compatibility so there are

32
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:29,200
some Corsair cases compatible with this particular cooler uh I mean even some of

33
00:02:27,920 --> 00:02:33,200
the cases that they don't say are compatible actually ended up working for

34
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:37,959
example uh we found that we could install it in a Vengeance C70 which is

35
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:42,000
right over there and that is not listed as compatible we did this without any

36
00:02:39,519 --> 00:02:46,519
cutting all we had to do was get some washers and put them uh between the

37
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:50,519
screws and the case itself because the holes were a little bit wide so that was

38
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:55,840
the only issue so with a little bit of Ingenuity if you've got a dual 140 mm

39
00:02:53,480 --> 00:03:00,800
fan mount in the top and enough clearance to have not only the radiator

40
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,720
but also the fan itself without interfering with any of the components

41
00:03:02,239 --> 00:03:08,720
of your motherboard you shouldn't run into too much difficulty the radiator

42
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:14,599
itself is as you'd expect about 36% larger than an h100i or an h100 due to

43
00:03:12,519 --> 00:03:18,280
the larger fan design it is still a fairly slim radiator so this is

44
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:21,200
necessary because the last thing you want to do with a product like this

45
00:03:19,599 --> 00:03:24,560
that's not compatible with every case out there is go and make it thicker so

46
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:28,120
that it's compatible with even fewer cases because it's so wide you're not

47
00:03:26,799 --> 00:03:33,920
going to be able to do what some case manufacturers have done and that is to

48
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:35,120
offset the 120 mm mounting holes in the

49
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:40,680
top so that there's room for the motherboard on the side rather than centering it with something this large

50
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:44,319
the tubing is a very very flexible quarter-inch tubing so that's another

51
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:48,920
option that hasn't been carried over from the h100i and addition to Corsair

52
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:55,480
link software not being included with the h110 at this time so the h100i has

53
00:03:52,079 --> 00:03:58,239
38 tubing whereas the h100 when these

54
00:03:55,480 --> 00:04:04,319
are very confusing model names h110 does not have 38 in tubing it has 1/4 inch

55
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:06,280
tubing it also lacks uh here we go uh

56
00:04:04,319 --> 00:04:10,640
rather no it doesn't lack it uh oh yeah it also lacks lighting effects on the

57
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:14,000
Block itself but it does have the same swiveling connectors here so that you're

58
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:18,120
not going to have any difficulty regardless of where your CPU socket is

59
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:22,400
situated on your motherboard making sure that the tubing is not sort of at a

60
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:26,639
weird angle that puts unnecessary strain on the connectors the design for

61
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:30,440
mounting is the traditional sort of ring mounting bracket that we've seen many

62
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:38,479
times in the past with a copper base that has a highquality thermal compound pre-applied

63
00:04:33,919 --> 00:04:41,639
to it and the pump here we go is powered

64
00:04:38,479 --> 00:04:43,800
by a black ribbon cable that is a three

65
00:04:41,639 --> 00:04:48,880
pin connector so that'll plug into either a pwm CPU fan connector or a

66
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:52,320
legacy 3 pin connector but you'll only be able to use DC control if you wanted

67
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:57,840
to lower the speed of the pump but I really really wouldn't recommend doing

68
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:59,400
that in 95 cases out of actually 100

69
00:04:57,840 --> 00:05:04,199
cases out of 100 just don't do that thank thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the h110 from
