Corsair Hydro H115i RGB Platinum
280mm Liquid CPU Cooler
"Corsair has set themselves apart this time, with the introduction of the h115i RGB Platinum CPU cooler, and we will tell you why. In the old days, all AIOs were loud, and companies tried their hardest to be on the top of the chart. Then came the silent and RGB phase of coolers, where it seems some teething issues were looked over, things were tweaked, and maybe they realized that when a $50 cooler can beat your $120 solution, you may need to rethink the game. In all aspects, for whatever reasons, we feel that the H115i RGB Platinum has raised the stakes to all other AIO makers out there.
They have found a pleasing balance to keep all of their potential customers what they want. If you want silent and pretty to look at, you got it. If you want performance over everything else, and you want to turn out the lights for late night benching sessions, have at it. The H115i RGB Platinum has stood up to the testing, has many new implementations and features we have not seen on any others yet, and with a $169.99 MSRP attached to it, you get much more for the dollar than in previous offerings. If you are in the market for a new AIO for your latest build, head over to Corsair, and check out the new Platinum series of coolers. They have it all, no matter what you desire of it." - TweakTown.com

"It’s hard to find fault with this in terms of the design. Not only does it look good, but it’s easy to install and clearly does a fantastic job. While it is a little unclear if the advantages of the moderately larger 280mm design are really that notable, at the same time this clearly outperforms the vast majority of the 240mm coolers we have seen. Therefore, Corsair is clearly getting something right here!
When the RGB lighting is turned on, the already nice sleek design suddenly comes to life in spectacular fashion.
The Corsair H115i RGB Platinum, being 280mm in size, is certainly offering something a little different to the market. As we said earlier, these size radiators are not unheard of, but certainly do not fit in with more common designs. On the whole, though, this larger design does work. While it might not have the same cooling capability of a 360mm cooler (although it does beat many of them in our testing) it’s certainly a good compromise in size. Particularly if your chassis cannot handle a 360mm cooler (which are large).
This is, therefore, absolutely perfect for someone who wants a cooler that has a stronger performance than a standard 240mm model but also wants to keep the size at a reasonable level.
With the near silent fan operational noise and fantastic performance figures, the Corsair H115i RGB Platinum is hard to fault. It’s different, but in a very good way!" - eTeknix.com

"You know, the new Corsair Hydro Series H115i RGB Platinum edition is more of a sidegrade opposed to a massive upgrade really, however, it's a really good sidegrade. Corsair focussed on the fans and RGB primarily, whilst offering the same cooling performance level as it's predecessor. It is a very good product, of now you will not reach the performance levels of your 'custom' liquid cooling kit, but the H115i RGB Platinum edition does offer plenty of cooling capacity. With that box ticked away, you need to move onwards towards aesthetics and noise levels. The including of ML140 RGB fans is sweet, really sweet even as personally I feel these fans are among the best in the business.
People, in general, do not understand these fans though, they make heaps of noise at 12v and thus people frown upon them. However they are not designed to run at 12v, we're talking low RPM airflow at say 3 volts, the airflow of these fans is above what you normally see. These fans move proper amounts of air at low RPM, get it? And since they can do that at low RPM, the kit offers lower acoustics with more airflow. That, in a nutshell, is what the ML fans are all about. They are also PWM compatible and have 24 addressable LEDs. If you combine that with iCUE that allows you to control all in software, you realize that you just purchased an incredibly flexible solution with really nice looks. Just pop the unit in, set it at balanced mode. This option offers proper performance at acoustic levels you can hardly hear (if you can hear it at all)." - Guru3D.com
