Corsair Hydro Series H70

Zitat: + Hohe Leistung - Lautheit - Lüfteranbindung/Widerstände

Zitat: + Zahlreiche Detailverbesserungen zur Corsair H50 + Gleichmäßiger Anpressdruck + Sehr großer Regelbereich der mitgelieferten Lüfter + Pumpe ist regelbar + Leistung ist - je nach Szenario - referenzwürdig - Kontaktfläche zur CPU recht grob gefertigt - Lüfter und Pumpe neigen zu leichten Nebengeräuschen - Lüfter geben unter 5 Volt eine falsche Drehzahl aus

Zitat: Optimale Kühlleistungen, doch der Benutzer wird vor die Wahl zwischen "kalt" und "leise" gestellt.

Zitat: Pros: + Very quick install + No filling, nor maintenance required + Good performance increase compared to the H50 + Full socket compatibility (775/1156/1366 and AMD AM2/3) Cons: - Add maybe an adjustable fan controller ? - Rigid hoses - Noisy when running both fans at full spped Looking at the results on the different test platforms, it´s clear that the new hydro 70 gives quite a a good showing. The bigger radiator and extra fan have really helped to improve the aging Hydro 50´s performance. The new mounting (compared to the first generation mountings) looks a bit less rigid, though it´s up to the task. Normal user will mount the unit once, though for me the new units with the little plastic clips are a bit of a nuisance. But they allow the Corsair unit to be fully Intel compatible with the last generation sockets. For the AMD AM2/3 sockets the included top and rear bracket are in the box. Mounting the unit is again 10 minute task, unless you´re really clumsy. One of the key factors again of this unit: easy and hassle free install. The new rotatable hoses are big plus when mounting the unit. Where the H50 could be a bit stubborn to mount, this unit almost falls into place. Too bad the hoses are still pretty rigid, but that´s the price to pay when you want to avoid kinks in the cable, thus obstructing the flow.
