Corsair Hydro Series H50 CPU Water-Cooling Kit Review Corsair gets their feet wet again, after close to 3 years they have introduced another water cooling product, the previous one being the Nautilus 500 back in 2006. This time around they’ve also opted for an all-in-one kit, but build inside the case, fitted onto the exhaust fan, a case with 120mm exhaust is a requirement, a large wallet is not! The Corsair H50 will be introduced at price of ~€/$70 which is pretty much on par with high end air cooled heatsinks out there! So can an all-in-one kit impress us? Let's find out! http://www.madshrimps.be/gotoartik.php?articID=939 |
What type of cooling fluid is used ? I know the waterblock is copper , but the radiator is aluminium. |
I think the fluid mixture itself is top secret... I tried to refill the unit and it didn't even take 70cc to fill her up, it's pretty impossible to get it done properly, unit still mixed loads of air and is in fact wasted... will let her run ( without no cpu to see what happens with the fluid ) |
Hey Leeghoofd, Which is the best push pull setup for this cooler in your experience? Having the push fan blowing air into the case or out of the case (assuming the case airflow is adapted correctly)? Thanks |

if however you can get fresh air at the rear of the case, having the fans pull in cool air will give you the advantage |
Indeed much depends on the way the rig is setup, case ventilation etc... I never got the acclaimed 10 °C difference with the TRUE, I even tried theunit outside of the case, temps stayed +/- the same. For max performance : sucking air in via the rear hole as advised by Corsair, but for max ventilation it would require to add a top fan to get rid of the trapped hot air in the case There's a cool thread on Overclock.net, there are zillions of mods that make the unit even better : Official Corsair H50 hydro series owners |
