Very pleased with this buy, kinda hard to install when you're alone, but manageable, tip, use someone to hold the radiator while you're screwing the first screw, the first one is hard to align.Very very worth the buy, push heat directly out of the case if you don't follow the instructions, my Q8200 2.33GHz is now running at room temperature, and 2 degrees over room temp. when overclocked at 2.8GHz, it's a difference of 10 degrees when I used my old Thermaltake silent tower, and even more when overclocked.Would definitely suggest it to a friend.

I bought this because my noctua cooler didn't come with 1155 brackets.the back bracket this has for the intel motherboards has these little liners for the screws you need to insert  into little holes depending on your socket, took me a couple minutes to get them in right, other than that easy install.i have an antec 900 case, it BARELY fits, i had to cut off one of the clips for the lid fan to get it to fit, i didn't use the fans it came with i used a noctua fan and kept the blue LED antec 3-speed. i use a i7 2600k, my case maintains an ambient temp of 27c and prime95 with hyperthreading on it pegs at 63c, idles at 34cso really good :D

What an amazing product, this keeps my CPU really cool, well worth the $$$ and you wont be disappointed, I paid the extra money and had NCIX install it. You will be glad you did

I have this mounted in a antec df35 l looks ok will alow me to up grade motherboard to eny thing out thare and some say it's loud not to me 25c cpu 25c on ram 35c gpu 1/3 loud not bad fora q8200 asus p5p43td 4 gb ddr3 1333 ram gtx260 core 216 I like and on my bilds I am going to sugest it.

Very good performance nice and quite, still wondering do I need such big cooler for my first build computer. without the heavey use such as gaming. my CPU temp. barely go over 40. don't know because of it or other reason.

Comment:
Effortless to install (requires to remove the motherboard) - OC's simple, solid cool temps. it doesn't make ice cream - but my wife does! I have this poor boy mounted on a Intel 2500k w/ MSI P67A-GD65 motherboard with 16gig of Skill-DDR3-1600 Memory, 2x 128gig G-Skill SSD's (Sniper Edition) in Raid & a EVGA SC GTX 580 GPU. Overall score in Win764bit 7.five

Excellent cooler, my X6 1090T @ three.8Ghz idles at 29C, load at 39C with 2 fans on the radiator. You can\'t eliminate the cooler from the CPU without having smearing the thermal paste so if you want to re-seat the cooler, perhaps due to the reason mentioned in other thoughts, you could need to clean up a mess and re-coat the cooler. If this is your first create the mounting for this cooler can be complicated. I bought 3rd party fans with a higher air volume for the radiator. Pay attention to mounting the radiator, if you mount it the wrong direction your case door could not closed. I have had no leaks or any other issue with this cooler. This cooler is a fantastic entry level product into the water cooling world. Save yourself some trouble, replace the CPU HSF bracket on the back of your motherboard prior to mounting the motherboard in your case with the bracket from the H70.

Comment:
The H70 is a great cooling solution. My only issue was the installation part of it but otherwise I would recommend it for anyone looking into liquid cooling.

Comment:
I have nothing bad to say about this coolers, if perform really good and remain very quiet with noctua fan on it, I strongly recommand this cooler , IM sititng around 25degree on idles and 45 on load!

Excellent cooler, can't post temps due to a mobo/cpu conflict where it won't report outside of the bios. But I can attest to OC ability, on my old case/cooler I could get my Phenom II X2 555 BE running at 3.2 up to 3.4 (third core unlocked), with the exception of during the heat of summer, having to turn it back down. With a HAF 932 I could get it to boot up at 3.8, but not able to cool it at full load. Now with the H70, she's cool and stable at 3.8Ghz with a third core unlocked. And those limitations are not the fault of the cooler, but the not terribly stable 3rd and 4th core's.

Great cooler! i7 2600K e stock, idle temps: 36C; full load temps: 41Ci7 2600K e 4.6GHz, idle temps: 37C; full load temps: 61CI think the temperatures speak for themselves. I have the radiator mounted with dual fans as exhaust in the 2nd rear slot in an Antec 1200. Fans are running at a little under 1600rpm.Quiet too and doesn't put stress on the motherboard due to light weight. Comes with pre-applied thermal paste.Only issue is it might be difficult to mount the radiator with dual fans in a smaller case. Other than that, great product.Highly recommend.

i would say i like this product,but a little to big,keeps m cpu cool all the time,its made by corsair so the quality is good

Comment:
Bought this CPU heat sink yesterday and oh man what a big difference did it make im currently running it with i7 2600k on stock and my temps are around 27c idle and 35c with load...amazing heatsink!!!!

Comment:
I bought this heatsink few weeks ago and so far I'm loving it. Have this paired with a 2600k and a asus p8p67 deluxe and doing great so far. Not have to worry about a hsf that blocks ram is also a plus. Good product.

Comment:
Bought this to replace my Zalman CNPS9700LED CPU Heatsink. It was fun to install but i cut out the fan grill on the back of my case so i could mount the rad outside and gain room in my case. So far there has been no pump noise and it drop  my idle temps 8 degrees. ran prime 95 for awhile and temps did not go over 50.

Comment:
bought this 2 week ago for my new upgrade, using it to cool down my i7 960 and it really work well. the rad and the 2 vent are easy to install and they fit very well with my haf x

Comment:
Other than the fans, theres not much to complain about. It cools the 950s3760 in the 63C range s100% load. I got this for my Level-1 Liquid cooling for my newest Pro Build for a video editor customer. or a self contained unit its very good.Yet another quality product from Corsair, Highlt recomended, just swap out the fans for 2 quality quiet fans like i did, and ur in business.

Comment:
This cooler eliminates the hassle of traditional liquid cooling by using a closed loop. However, the default fans are quite loud, I recommend the use of silent fans.

Comment:
i got this for my 2500k and this thing does it job pretty good. Temps are quite low and I like how it doesn't take so much space. I've had troubles installing it on a p8p67 pro mobo but then again, it's my first build.

I have this installed on a 2600K with the Gigabyte UD7-B3 mobo. I didn't use the inline fan resistors - instead I attached the radiator fans to the CPU fan header on the mobo (per the instructions) and set the mobo to the "Voltage" fan regulation (rather than PWN). With this setup you get the base of both worlds. At idle the radiator fans are nice and quiet and the idle temps are good - at load the fans instantly spin up and keep things cool.On my 2600K processor O/C to 4.8Ghz: - approx 30C at idle - approx 70C at loadNo one is going to mistake this for a custom water cooling setup - on the other hand it is a fun easy introduction to it.

Comment:
I'm really impressed with how well its been performing but the main reason why I like it is its look. I also like the fact that it's not putting so much weight on the motherboard - although I realize that it doesn't change anything, it's always nice to have. For $70, it's probably the best cooler out there.

Comment:
I had problems mounting it because the screws holding the radiator up were a bit too short for my liking. I got the feeling that the radiator would fall at any minute.Also, the fans are a bit loud for my liking.Finally, the biggest con for me is that the tubes attach to the right side of the cpu waterblock. I despise this. I liked the H50 design better where it was attached closer to the bottom of the waterblock rather than the side. The h50 design allowed more room for the dimm slots such as a ram cooler or additional ram.

I was looking for a very good air cooler, most of them I found were so big I didn't want to take the chance of them not fitting in my case. Also in previous builds I found the heatsink to be my biggest nemesis when it comes to putting everything together.The H70 is very simple to install, and once the bracket is in place you can easily remove the pump whenever necessary.In regards to temperatures I have an Intel I7 2600K at 4.3 GHZ. I have the H70 running in an exhaust setup to keep the case temp cooler, if necessary (and what corsair suggests) is to have the fans pulling air into the case. I use my Asrock motherboard software + Realtemp to get temperatures, both of them show me idling around 29C, I run prime 95 for an hour and the temps don't get much about 50. Typically when I game even after many hours the temps stay in the low 40's.For those looking for a great overclock but don't want the hassle of dealing with an oversized heatsink the H70 is a good solution for you... also if you look around you might find a sale I got mine for $79.99 at canada computers.

I bought this heatsink few weeks ago and so far I'm loving it.It keeps my cpu temp around 25 degree when idle and 35 degree in load. I'm using it with the stock corsairs fan and I've been impressed by the silence of this thing. You can barely hear it in your case.Must buy !
