Baconroll Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Hi, Just looking at doing a new build when I noticed there are 2 different versions of the H100i The model numbers are: CW-9060021-WW - this is the one you can find on the Corsair website. and CW-9060025-WW - this one is starting to show up on vendor websites (ncix.com, scan.co.uk). I can't find it on the Corsair Website. I presume it's an updated version that's coming out, but I've not seen any real specs or anything. Anyone know if there are major differences? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 That's a good question and someone glided right past the opportunity to explain the other day. Perhaps Corsair is not ready to make a public statement. Scan has another one or two listed as well. Since they are higher model numbers than the current series and the Scan website lists it as "version 2", it does suggest the Asetek models are getting some refinements. I would guess most of the changes relate to internal firmware behavior, rather than physical upgrades, but we'll have to wait and see. Either way, it is probably going to be a few months before the new versions actual make it to major markets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetrogamerX Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I wanted to know this as well. I wanted to buy one of these, but I'm seeing H100i v2 and thought I might wait for v2 release? When is release Corsair?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetrogamerX Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Hello Corsair? Any release date for V2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 The only differences that can be seen between the two coolers is the logo, other than that its probably the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 The only differences that can be seen between the two coolers is the logo, other than that its probably the same. I suspect they have improved the firmware, but we will only find out once we try and use the v2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees Greybeard Posted January 21, 2016 Corsair Employees Share Posted January 21, 2016 Those two versions are technically the same in terms of performance and build quality, no difference in FW either. The only difference is that the V2 units have had their CPU blocks slightly tweaked to ensure compatibility with some Skylake m-ITX boards that may have components really close to the socket.

red-ray Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 no difference in FW either. Thank you, are H80iV2 and H110iV2 also planned? What about the H110iGT (Device ID 0x41), does that also have an issue with some Skylake m-ITX boards? Will Corsair ever release the H100iGT (Device ID 0x40)? Will the USB PIDs change and if so what are the new PIDs please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pathfindercod Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Is the rad the same as the original h100i or is it he newer thicker one like the 100 gtx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Is the rad the same as the original h100i or is it he newer thicker one like the 100 gtx? Based on what http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?p=832507 says I expect the H100iV2 and the H100iGTX have identical radiators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees Greybeard Posted February 2, 2016 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 2, 2016 I'm sure Amazon has that cooler in stock already, just not sure why they haven't put it up yet. They have one but it's listed sold by us. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019EXSSBG/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_3?pf_rd_p=1944687542&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B009ZN2NH6&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=03MW29HEQJRT2YX2QMZX Edit: Looks like Amazon has them in stock already.

red-ray Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 no difference in FW either The H100iV2 firmware is 2.8.0.0 which is different to the H100iGTX firmware which is 2.3.0.0. Obviously SIV can report the H100iV2, but I was not expecting there to be a difference. What are the differences please? If you have a H80iV2 or H115i please post the firmware version. The H80iGT is 2.3.0.0 and the H110iGTX is 2.4.0.0 and I would also like to know how those versions differ. Note the H100iV2 fans are connected to the motherboard which is why 0 RPM is reported.

The only difference is that the V2 units have had their CPU blocks slightly tweaked to ensure compatibility with some Skylake m-ITX boards that may have components really close to the socket. Is it true that with the newer v2 model, the hoses are harder to manipulate than the original model? If this is true, then I'm keeping the older model as I am doing a (very little room) Mini-ITX build in the 'Ncase M1' chassis. Also, will the CPU block of the v1 model fit easily onto my i7-6700k on an Asus Z170I Pro Gaming motherboard? .... Or, is the V2 model better for that CPU block to fit onthat Asus MB? Thanks. -Brian in Rhode Island/USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 is the V2 model better What Corsair said about the firmware being the same is incorrect. The firmware has been improved in all the newer H115i + H100iV2 + H80iV2 so I advise you to get the V2. It's still not as good as the CoolIT firmware though, see http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?p=796027 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My other concern is that someone stated the V1's CPU block is a tough fit for some Asus MB's... (mine will be the Z170I Pro Gaming) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
