Corsair H100i Liquid CPU Cooler Review

The Corsair Link Software (tested with version 2.2.0) is Corsair’s unifying program that allows you to control everything you could possibly need in one place. For our review purposes we are just looking the functionality of this with respect to the Corsair H100i.

The first key part is the ability to adjust fan speeds. The panel allows you to adjust a lot of things.

This is a close up of the config panel for adjusting fan speeds. As you can see you get a whole load of fan operating modes. There are also a whole load of other options which some users may find useful such as email updates or automatic shut-downs.

The Corsair Link software also allows you to keep track of all the specific details regarding your pump.

There is the option to change pump speed dividers. This is only really useful if you intend to use Corsair Link with a different pump which most people will not.

The ability to tune the LEDs is a relatively unique feature that the Corsair H100i offers. To my knowledge no other all-in-one liquid CPU cooler offers this functionality.

You have three choices of LED modes. The normal setting which is just a single colour of your choice using the colour bar at the bottom to choose. The cycling mode which cycles through a variety of colours and the temperature mode which changes colour based on temperature intervals which you can set (as shown below).
