Pros

I wish corsair and msi would work on the proper holders for the cooler. The rgb is nice this time around on both the fans and the pumps. Keeps a 12600kf 5. Ghz (p/e core) all core overclock nice and cool.

Important to install the rad higher than the pump in order for the longevity of its life. Pump is a little noisy compared to the fans but nothing extreme. Difference in noise levels between quiet mode and extreme mode isn't noticeable.



Cons

Icue software insists on taking up more screen space than necessary. Software demands not-infrequent updates that fix none of these shortcomings. This review is just a beware review, like anything you can get * and i just got * a couple hundred dollar...  Read More

When you start looking into reviews of this product disconnecting you start finding 100's of forum posts on the corsair forums stating the exact same problem with zero support from the company. Remaining hopeful for now and will try to update if worki...  Read More

Quality


I love this thing, still working well after 3 years, looks fantastic, keeps cool, easy to install, solid build quality.


Really good aio coolers, one of the best in the market, easy installation (read instructions carefully, well briefed).


This product is very quiet, even under heavy load.


Cpu has never gotten hot even when overclocked.

Price


A bit pricey for the looks, great cooling, amazing contact with cpu, never runs hot.


- face plate can be replace with a lcd later- great price for the performance


Corsair website shows 20$ for 4 tiny screws which is ridiculous.


It was a bit expensive at 200$ for this aio.

Packaging/appearance


With all the review mentionning that it's actually a mystery if the package come with the lga 1700 mounting screws, mine came with it.


Came pre applied thermal paste on the head of the cooler, i accidentally touched mine taking the cover off to early forgetting ...  Read More


My package did come with lga 1700 standoffs.

Competitiveness


Also msi software is not great, icue could be improved but it's better.


I ended up getting this corsair aio instead and i will probably sell my msi replacement unit.

    So really no way to adjust or customize colors or schemesor lcd options

    No real support on this matter


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When we first booted a new build the fans with the cooler were working fine but the pump itself wasnt functioning reaching 100 degree temps pretty shortly after booting


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    After an hour of research i find out that its because of the connection to the commander core itself although it appeared to be plugged in its a common problem and you actually have to really force it with the connection


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It peaks around 65deg under stress testing with 19deg room temp

    The noise level is acceptable for a 360mm set up
