Test: Corsair H110i GT vandkøler

Konklusion

Innovation/Teknologi - 4
Der er ikke rigtig noget nyt i denne form for vandkøling. Corsair har dog, med H110i GT, forfinet teknikken og skruet en vandkøler sammen der sparker røv.280 mm radiator og et par specialdesignede blæsere med et højt statisk tryk efterlader et indtryk af, at Corsair´s ingeniører stadig knokler for at give slutbrugeren en rigtig god oplevelse med deres produkter.
Da jeg startede maskinen op, var jeg meget opmærksom på, om H110i GT skulle lide af den der hylelyd fra pumpen, som tidligere sæt har haft. Det gjorde den ikke.

Bundle/Tilbehør - 4
Der er næsten alt hvad du skal bruge i kassen. Den mere entusiastiske bruger vil sikkert savne ekstra skruer til Push/Pull konfiguration, da de ikke er med. Der var givet et 5-tal, hvis der havde været ekstra skruer og softwaren havde været med i kassen.

Design/Layout - 5
Jeg var meget i tvivl om en 4 eller 5'er her. Jeg har dog valgt at give en 5´er. Mest fordi jeg er vild med det diskrete og alligevel rå design. Fleksible slanger og et lækkert kølehoved er noget vi alle sætter pris på, så det hjælper også på scoren.

Software - 4
Selvom softwaren ikke er inkluderet i bundlet, har jeg alligevel valgt at tage den med her, da jeg formoder de fleste vil hente den selv. Softwaren er simpel og meget intuitiv. De fleste vil sikkert finde den både meget anvendelig, og sjov at rode med.

Ydelse - 5
Jeg er voldsomt imponeret over ydelsen. H110i GT henvender sig til entusiasten, som bestemt ikke vil blive skuffet. Vores FX8320E overclocket til 4,0 GHz ved 1,4 V vcore er ingen udfordring for den.
Den gode ydelse har dog sin pris. Blæserne larmer helt vildt, lige så snart man sætter dem til Medium eller High. Ved Low eller PWM er de ikke generende, og ydelsen er stadig i top

Pris - 4
Du skal hive næsten 1.000 dask ud af muldvarpen, hvis du vil have denne højtydende AIO-køler. Du får så til gengæld et produkt der leverer varen og samtidig ser lækkert ud.

UK summary

Innovation/Technology - 4
There is not much new in this area of water cooling. Corsair have however improved the technique with the H110i GT and assembled a water cooler which kicks ass.
280 mm radiator and a pair of special-designed fans with a high static pressure leaves an impression that Corsair's engineers still works hard to give the end-user a really good experience with their products.
When I powered on the machine I paid close attention to the pump, since earlier units have been known to suffer from whining. This unit however did not.

Bundle/Accessories - 4
There is almost everything in the box that you might need. The more enthusiastic user might miss some extra screws for push/pull configurations however, as these were not included. I had given a score of 5 here if extra screws and the software had been included in the box.

Design/Layout - 5
I was in doubt if this should be a score of 4 or 5. I ended up on 5, mostly because I loved the discrete but rough design. Flexible tubes and a nice pump unit is something we all appreciate, so this helps the score as well.

Software - 4
Even though the software is not included in the bundle I have chosen to include it here as well, as I presume most people will download it themselves. The software is simple and very intuitive. Most people would probably find it both useful and fun to tinker with.

Performance - 5
I am deeply impressed with the performance. H110i GT targets enthusiast users, who will definitely not be disappointed. Our FX8320E overclocked to 4.0 GHz at 1.4 V vcore is no challenge for this cooler.
The good performance have a price though. The fans make a lot of noise as soon as you have them running at medium or high setting. At low or PWM settings they are not as loud and performance is still top-notch.

Price - 4
You need to pay up almost 1,000 DKK from your pocket if you want this high-end AIO-cooler. You do however get a product that delivers while also looking great.
