Screen byte Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Hi all. I had made up my mind to go and buy one today because of the excellent reviews on the cooler on the net but now I've been on here reading for a while I'm not sure what tomdo. Should I wait until the new software comes out and also try and get one with the other fans. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screen byte Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Just been reading more on here and now I'm really unsure what to do :sigh!: I really don't want to buy this unit to have fan or other problems straight away. Is there a way of telling on the box if the unit has the 4 pin fans? My local store says it's only had the item in stock a week. UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pathfindercod Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I was going to order a cooking system from corsair but I think I'm sticking with my phanteks HSF. I own a m65 mouse and it is having crazy sensor issues. Ill stick with corsair ram, that's about it... GREAT ram guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screen byte Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 I've no choice but to leave the H100i. I know forums are more full of people with problems than praise but I don't want to shell quite a but of money for something that has this amount of problems. I will keep an eye on things to see if things get any better or look for an alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screen byte Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 I thought I would give an update as I decided to by the H100i after all. I ordered it from Amazon UK and it came with the new fans and FW 1.05. Fitted the unit last night in my 600T which was easy but a little bit annoying because with a bit more thought in the case design and I could have used a push-pull combination. Using the fans to pull cooled the system better. So far everything works fine, no problems, temps good, leds working. Only slight problem but not a biggie is the fans are still a bit noisy on low speed but with a game or music playing you would never hear them any way. Overall very happy. One question, what are the fans I have been sent? spec etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted March 13, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted March 13, 2013 If you got a unit that has a FW that is 1.05, then the fan should be the new PWM fans (4pin). 2700 RPM 74.42 CFM 37.68 Dba 4.82 mm-H20 0.35 A 4.32 W TACH, PWM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
