H100i or H110?

[Maiklas]

Which one? Corsair H100i or H110?

 

[DarrenP]

The H110 out preforms the H100I. But keep in mind space. It's rad is thicker than the one on the H100I. Personally i love my H100I and it performs amazingly and wouldn't trade it for an H110 anyday.

 

[Maiklas]

Well but how much better is performing H110 then H100i? Is it 2c or something more?
H110 should fit in my CM 690 II, but I'm afraid of constant fan noise. If it's 2 or 3c difference, I'd rather get H100i, due to fan control software.
However I still got some time to make a decision till the end of May (financial reasons).
So I hope this thread will be helpfull.

It's better. It has more raddage area. Will cool better. Bigger rad, less fannage speed needed.

In 1 minute I found this. Have a full read.

Thanks, but allready have read that, and all the other reviews, and benchmarks that I could find. And overall I notice, that the temps difference between h110 and h100i maximum is only about 3c. Am I correct?

By the way, how many of you guys had any problems with H100i LED's and pump noise? I found out it is a pretty commom issues.

 

[Conumdrum]

It is common. These have a high RMA rate. You get what you pay for. The bling on the LEDs and the junk software is not what water cooling is about.

If you're worried about AIO's failing, just build your own CPU loop. We all know Conumdrum can help with that

What kind of temps do you get?

 

[DarrenP]

Max? 80*C at 5.0Ghz at 1.45V.

 

[Conumdrum]

Load program? Fans and fan settings? Ambient room temps?

You need to set baselines of info. Otherwise there is no comparison.

 

[DarrenP]

Load program P95, fans 100% just the two stock fans, room temps were 17*C

 

[Conumdrum]

Thanks Darren, these things matters/ 17C room temp? Geeze that's cold. Lets add 5C to normalize the temps.

So at 23C or 74F room temps the OP would see an additional 5 C, so 85C in load temps. Getting pretty high there. You running them at 100% profile or something less? What fan profile you running? E-peen don't matter here. It's science.

It makes a diff. This is how science and test/comparisons work. No missed bits.

 

[DarrenP]

17? that's not cold, that's warm... that's pushing hot for me... I like it cold... I usually have my room in the bare positives 5*C-10*C

I'm running them at 100%

I have an H80 that has the fan noise problem. Every so often it acts up so I have to hit it or flick the tubes to make it stop. I recently ordered a D14 to replace it because of this.

 

[Conumdrum]

And still getting 80C. At 7C room temps. In my house I would be getting 100C on that at 25C room temps.

Your H100 is broke Darren. Not really, your overclock is wayyy to much for that AIO. You need better cooling. Dunno how you could be happy with it.

And your sig says 4.7 but you say 5.0 Hmm Lotta issues here, your sig still states you have Titans and you don't. Your input here is becoming suspect. I'll pay more attention to your input kiddo.

 

[DarrenP]

That was when i was pushing it, 4.7 is my daily OC. I'm just happy to have been able to reach 5Ghz on an AIO that's stable.

 

[Conumdrum]

Okay, so do the tests now at 4.7, list ambients, idle temps, load temps after 15 minutes. Science. We ain't on the playground.

 

[DarrenP]

Honestly, if i could get my computer running i would, i'm currently working on an issue that i'm trying to fix.

 

[Conumdrum]

So why are you posting here? I know about your newest repeated problem.

 

[Maiklas]

Ok, so sadly I tryed to fit 140 fans on top, between case frame and top grill, and they do not fit. 120 fits ok. However 280 rad fits ok.
So now I'm stuck with Corsair H100i, CM Seidon 240 or Enermax ELC240-TB.
That's all 240 cooling kits, that I can get in Lithuania.
