Corsair Memory perhaps took a small break from making memory products in 2008 and decided to give the till-then, a brand new concept of liquid CPU coolers along with a few other leading brands. The outcome was pretty impressive as the newly launched Corsair H50 all in one liquid CPU cooler won the hearts of a huge proportion of hardware enthusiasts with its high-end performance and easy maintenance and affordability. The H50 was truly a ground breaking product in the industry and gave the rivals Coolermaster and Noctua a rather tough competition. two years down the road, and Corsair still continues to repeat the widespread success of the H50 with the newer and more sophisticated products such as the Corsair H80, which is going to be the product we have on our testing-table today.
The Corsair H80 is a brand new 120 mm all in one liquid CPU cooling solution from the house of Corsair Memory. It features a 38mm, extra thick radiator which fits in quite perfectly with the dual 120 mm fan combo. The fans featured by the product are equipped with 92 CFM and 2600 revolutions per minute. The static water pressure usually stands near about 1.6-7.7mm, and it quite successfully shoots out the air through the thick radiator directly.
Now let’s have a quick look at all the important specs and features. The dimensions of the product are 120mm x 152mm x 38mm, whereas those of the fans stand at 120mm x 120mm x 25mm (x2). The fan speed ranges from 1300-2600 revolutions per minute, whereas the fan airflow is 46-92 CFM. The noise level produced by the fans is also pretty decent and stands at 22-39 dbA while their static pressure can be anywhere between 1.6-7.7mm H2O according to different situations.
The H80 is compatible with a large number of CPU standards such as the AM2, AM3, 775, 1155, 1156, 1366 as well as the 2011. The push-pull, and push button fan settings make the fans in the product particularly handy.
In our observation, the H80 does wonder when it comes to limit the clutter and strain to the motherboard. The thickness of the radiator, which is 38 mm in size, also helps to a large extent in achieving that goal. And add to that Corsair’s Link-Digital support, and the product stands exceptionally well in catering to your CPU’s cooling requirements.
All in all, if we go on weighing down all the pros and cons associated with the H80, there is simply not too much of flaws, at least mentionable, according to our observation. However, there is plenty of bright sides, amongst which, the most important ones are easy installation, a cheaper price in comparison to other similar products floating around in the market at the time, non-intrusive nature, low noise and many more.
So are we recommending the product for you? Yes! The Corsair H80 is definitely one of the cheapest, yet pretty much high-performing products available in the market. For more information visit us at
