corsair icue h170i elite lcd display liquid cpu cooler factory

So here’s the thing. As a CPU cooler, it is absolutely wonderful, running Doom Eternal on high keeps the CPU cores no higher than about 38’C, with some cores staying as low as 35’C. And for context, I live in Southern California, and it can get crazy hot sometimes, so when the average CPU temp during gaming is about 55-60’C, I cannot understate how ***GOOD*** this is.

However, the software, is an absolute hell. The iCue software that Corsair has developed, while slick and has a friendly UI, sometimes you just want to rip your hair out. For whatever reason, it conflicts with the LCD screen, which is meant to be the main feature of this product, meaning the majority of the time you won’t even get to use it. I got to only a couple times, and it’s really fun to have whatever gif or image you want playing, so it’s incredibly disappointing when it doesn’t work. I know it’s iCue itself, because whenever I reboot the PC or even click to Shut Down, the LCD will briefly spring back to life, it’s only once the computer seemingly detects the iCue software that it suddenly stops working. And now, after about a month of usage, I started getting the problem of iCue no longer detecting the cooler, which is something that I’d heard about, and so far any solution articles that Corsair has available don’t seem to work (it’s not very hopeful to see that on average only about 10-30% of people find the articles helpful). Thankfully, given the fact that I can see the error symbol that I’m all too familiar with at this point, and running high-demanding games while observing CPU temp, I’ve come to the conclusion that the cooler is indeed still working and receiving power (this alone is why I’m so happy to praise the hardware).

However, if you don’t want to deal with the software hellscape that is iCue, not the disappointment of paying extra for a feature that doesn’t seem to work, I’d say get the non-LCD model of this product. Just don’t forget that there is also a chance that it will lose detection.

In meinen Rechner mit Corsair Crystal Series 680X RGB Gehäuse, ASUS Prime x570 Pro mit Ryzen 9 3900 (Zen 2) sollte eine neue Wasserkühlung verbaut werden. Ein Produkt eines anderen Herstellers lieferte nach nur 18 Monaten nur noch unzureichende Kühlleistung.

Das Gehäuse ist an der Frontseite für drei 140mm Lüfter ausgestattet, weshalb ich entschloss die Corsair iCUE H170i ELITE CAPELLIX zu bestellen. Zu meiner Überraschung passt dieses Modell allerdings nicht in das Gehäuse, weil ca. 1 cm Höhe fehlt um sie einbauen zu können.

Die CPU läuft mit 4100 MHz, statt 3900MHz, der RAM wird mit 3200MHz betrieben. Die Wärmeleitpaste von Corsair habe ich vor der Montage entfernt und stattdessen Flüssigmetall aufgetragen.

Im Leerlauf beträgt die Betriebstemperatur, bei 22°C Raumtemperatur ca. 40°C. Dies liegt 15°C unter der Temperatur mit der WaKü des Fremdherstellers und 240mm statt der 360mm von Corsair.

Ein gravierender Unterschied zeigt sich allerdings unter Volllast des Systems. Hier erreicht die CPU max. 67°C. Im Vergleich zur vorherigen WaKü, die bis zur max. Grenze der CPU (95°C) gelaufen ist.

Zur Corsair eigenen Software zur RGB und Lüftersteuerung kann ich nichts sagen, da ich die RGB Beleuchtung über eine OpenSource Software und keiner Herstellersoftware steuer.

Die Wasserkühlung ist ihr Geld auf jeden Fall wert. Das sie zu laut ist oder schlechte Halterungen hat, kann ich nicht bestätigen. Corsair könnte seine Componenten besser aufeinander abstimmen. Die Kühlleistung kann sich auf jeden Fall sehen lassen.
