Corsair i100 cpu cooler failure


Recommended Posts

As the title suggests I think the cpu cooler has died, according to the light on front on system Corsair troubleshooting suggests a cpu pump failure.

 

My question is I can’t seem to find this cooler anywhere , is there anything else I could use as apart from that the system is working fine.

 

Thank you everyone for any suggestions and help

Hi there,

Not sure if you have solved your issue but here is some info. The cooler that came with this system is custom so you will not find it anywhere. Corsair also don't sell it. The only thing you can do now is to remove it completely (including the radiator) and install an air cooler. The two that I can recommend are the Noctua NH-L12S or the Alpenfohn Black Ridge, both of which are compatible with either Intel or AMD.  I am assuming you haven't upgraded the system. These two coolers will work well as they will still draw air from the side inwards and it can then be pushed out the top just the way the case was designed. 

The only drawback is that you will need to use a software called Fan Control. This will allow you to set the top fan to react to both GPU and CPU temps. Without it, the top fan can only be configured to react to CPU temps.

I have installed the Alpenfohn cooler in the past and worked like a charm. I did go back to the factory liquid cooler as mine still works, and I upgraded to 12th gen which runs a bit hotter.
