The back-to-school period has become the favorite of IT companies for new product launches, all efforts in May-June (Computex) being moved to autumn, more precisely September octomber. I know you are looking forward to the launch of the new Nvidia video cards but until you find out all about them from my colleague Tudor I will tell you about a new series of AIOs from Corsair: iCUE Elite Capellix.

As you probably remember from the review of the Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB, Capellix LEDs stand out for their extremely small size (0.2mm³ compared to 2.8mm³ as a regular RGB LED) are brighter than up to 60% and come with a consumption up to 40% lower for the same light intensity. Well, these Capellix LEDs also appear on the top range of Corsair AIOs, the 33 pieces illuminating the pump and waterblock assembly, can be configured individually as desired.

The pump is improved over previous models, its specifications including a flow of 0. 82 L / min and a maximum noise level of 20 dB… impressive! The waterblock is also optimized for high performance, the material used being copper and the cold plate is crossed by a jet divided into 2 (split-flow) which cools the slats placed with a density of 128 blades per inch. At first glance, it seems to me that the experience gained with the Hydro X custom cooling range has made the manufacturer have other possibilities and opportunities on the AIO market, iCUE Elite Capellix being the embodiment of years of R&D and investments made in this segment.

Corsair iCUE H 100 i Elite Capellix is ​​available in 3 variants in terms of size: H 100 i (240 mm, the model that we will test today), H 115 i (280 mm) si
