Hey, and thanks for the video. I just received my AM4 bracket for this cooler, and your video was helpful in answering some of the questions I had about installing it. So thanks!
im just saying, its easier to use those standard screws that come with a fan. . . put 2 in opposite corners to keep it there and then 2 radiator screws to mount the rad in the other 2 free slots, and then remove the first set and put the other 2 radiator fan screws in
Actually, I don't think it makes a difference whether the radiator is oriented with the tubes on the bottom or the top. The pump is in the CPU mounted section, and one tube is liquid coming in and the other is liquid going out. You have to remember that this is a closed loop with theoretically no air whatsoever, so there will always be liquid using gravity to its advantage and having to go against gravity, so they actually cancel out, as it is theoretically the same amount of liquid in either direction. There will always be the same amount (theoretically) of liquid moving with gravity and against gravity, so the forces will always cancel out, so where your tubes get mounted is purely up to one's own opinion and one's own aesthetic preference (however you get more tubing to work with if you mount the tubes at the top as there is a shorter distance between where the tubes connect to the radiator and the CPU). Now, as to whether to mount your radiator pulling in air (front/bottom) or exhausting air out (back/top), both Kyle of bitwit and Linus of Linus Tech Tips did videos on this and it is actually better for your CPU temps if you are using an open air style graphics card to mount the radiator on the front. If you mount it on the top, all of the hot (and it can get very hot) air from the card will be blown through the radiator heating the CPU more. If you have a blower style graphics card, it doesn't matter and do as you please, but do watch their videos for a more in-depth examination.
Well, old comment but still wrong, unless the top of the radiator is above pump, air will get stuck INSIDE the pump, will be more noisy and will get ur pump killed over time. Refer to gamers nexus or Jayztwocents videos for detail's on this.
install video saved my butt because I couldn't figure out the pump block bracket issue. I also learned my AM3+ board uses AMD4 style back plate. That was one I had to figure out.
@@ripties I just picture monkeys trying to something super simple a human should be able to do very simply. (Too stupid to read the instructions if common sense fails....)
So, I am a complete dummy. My AM4 bracket came in today. I have had my Corsair H100i v2 for about a week or so. I went to install it on my MSI B350 Tomahawk Mobo, and come to figure MSI made this board to be able to use AM3 brackets for AIO's. I slapped my H100iv2 and went from 40 to 50c idle, to idle around 26c on 3.9ghz overclock with 1.35v. This thing is an incredible cooler. I stress tested my rig and never got over 67c. I am running it in push/pull with the front part of my case. So some MSI boards and Asus boards must be able to use AM3 brackets still.
So I'm building a Ryzen rig soon, and I have an H100i coming in to pair it. So you're saying I do not need an am4 bracket for the H100i to fit my Ryzen build? I'm using an MSI X370 SLI PLUS mobo btw.
Thanks! Ya I'll have to look into it then, I will leave an update for anyone who's interested later. Here's to hoping I don't have to order that bracket!
I have the H110i, and it has a similar installation. The problem is there is no enclosed software and Win10/64 is always complaining that there is an unidentified USB device attached to my system, which is definitely the H110i. If you go to the Corsair site there is no software for it. How can I get Windows to properly identify this thing and stop bugging me about the device. It disconnects the usb and reconnects it about every 10-15 minutes during which time the fans run full speed for a couple of seconds until it reconnects. Again... how do you fix this?
Why are you securing the pump while the tower is standing vertical? You are making more work for yourself anytime when you are fighting against gravity and its harder to guarantee an even torque of the heat-sink against the CPU which is important.
Try pushing in and then twisting. The bracket has teeth that go into the black plastic. When you push in, the teeth become dislodged. Then you can twist slightly so the teeth align with the holes. Do that in reverse for the AMD bracket so the teeth sink and and the bracket is secured.
If you put your cooler on the front, you have no place for drives (HDD, Optical, etc.). I have found it better to put on the top and much easier to install. Update: I see why you did it; no room on the top of your case.
Boštjan Baras Just bought the h100 v2 and it comes with it so suggest returning and and getting an exchange for another one you would get the bracket or have a friend from the us to send you one they are free on there website
I have the same AIO , and by the looks of it the same case! HOW can i bend the tubes safely to be like yours? Mine are at the exact opposite direction and hitting the side tempered glass. Is it ok to push a little harder or my pc will end up like a swimming pool ??
😬😬😬 so I just upgraded from my fx8350 to a Ryzen 7 2700x... I used the am3 standoffs... So far nothing bad has happened but I have played games for a couple hours... Gunna swap those stand offs....
Do the crossair all in ones come pre filled with liquid never understood if u have to fill with water or they come pre filled and do they sell clear hoses for crossair models?
Hey, just saw your installation. Thanks for showing! But i have a problem: I got the Crosshair 6 Hero Motherboard and i dont know in which i need to plug the pump in. So there is the AIO pump, the cpu opt and the cpu fan. So in which do i need to plug the cable (from 22:48 )? :o
technically any of them would have probably been ok but best it to use aio pump header, its basically the same header just with slightly higher votage to accomodate large pumps.
Naiden, Just FYI, there's a diagram of all your connection points, right inside your MOBO manual. It helps a lot, when trying to know where to plug things in at, especially on the CH6 board.
nappydrew problem is when plug in to the aio header u get a cpu fan speed error, on every boot. this is the issue I'm having idk which way is correct, and how to get rid of the error without ignoring it.
I just plugged it in the CPU fan slot. It works and i can control it from the bios (maybe from the software too, i dont know). Its set to auto by default so it adjusts when the cpu is getting hotter.
Kory House, I would just use the CPU Fan header, like Naiden suggested. The amp draw should be fine & you CAN control it with both your BIOS and with software.
So just to make sure, the pump connection, if I don't have a pump connector, But a pump fan, then the pump fans go there, and the pump itself anywhere else (another fan connection) yes?
Which is better for this combo. MSI Core Frozr L or Noctua NH-U12S SE or H100i v2 ? and what about the memory slot. Is this any issues with those big cpu fan for 4 memory slot?
Zohair Habssaya air cooling vs aio is a never ending debate and imo there isnt one that is clearly better then the other, aio has more failure points but air can have clearance and noise issues, I have personally never used the msi frozr but and can tell you that memory clearance issues can happen with any big air cooler, it is defferent for each mobo and size of heat spreaders on you memory
I'm really contemplating getting one of these for my ryzen 1700..just a bit nervous about leaks even though I know the odds are low with regards to getting a leak.. Would you recommend this over air coolers?
This is a more complex question then it seems but here are my thoughts, I am big on price quality and high end air coolers often are almost the same price as a decent aio and generally you get better performance out of the aio. Secondly aio depends much more on radiator size then air flow meaning you can run your fans slower and quieter with good performance. An air cooler will depend on good airflow therefore you have to generally spin your case fan higher and noisier to get good performance. On the other hand yes you are trading some risk that if a leak develops it could damage your hardware and lifespan of an aio is generally shorter then air cooler (anv around 5 years), on an air cooler you sometimes have to change fan but that's cheap. So those are my thoughts I prefer aio because of price/performance/noise ratio but you can overclock a 1700 very well on air because it is a lower tdp processor so you can be very well served with a good air cooler. Hope this helps.
Thanks :) yeah I will see, I have the phantek p400 case so airflow isn't the greatest.. As of now I have 2x140mm front fans and 2x120mm for the rear and rear top :) I would like a better cpu cooler, my 1070gtx gets a bit hot as well so not sure what to do for cooling (temps as of now 3.6ghz 1.135v bios = 1.128v under load temps are 28c idle and 60c load but my gpu gets to around 75c+ under load so I'd like to get that lower.. Obviously with a better cooler I can oc more and keep temps low
luno _b do u have founders edition of 1070 or aftermarket? you can start with a custom fan curve of you don t mind noise but 70 s are actually not insanely hot for a gpu its the 80s where it gets sketchy.
Nope the galax ex 1070gtx, it doesn't have the best cooling but was the cheapest 1070gtx.. With a custom fan curve it stays in the 60's. The gpu does generate the most heat thus raising my cpu temps with the wraith spire so that's why I wanted to get a better cpu cooler
luno _b not to oversell aio but that is another advantage as long as your pulling cold air from outside case your cpu will be affected less by case internal temps 😀
OK. I'm from Germany so i don't understand the whole video. Thank you very much for you fast answer would you recommend the Corsair H100i v2? And which RAM do you use? :D
ArmaShot yes I would recommend the corsair h100i v2 it reduced load temps by 20 celsius under load and im using crucial ballistix 3000 ram but currently runs at 2400, but that is expected on ryzen right now with 4 dimm configuration.
Nick Decker your right but since i wasn t expecting any thermal issues i went for esthetics in this build, if you look at the follow up video i went rgb fans at the top. but if you were having thermal issues u could swap it to the top
Nick Decker bitwit did a video and the front mounted fan actually kept the cpu cooler. the air it pushed through the rad to the case is still cooler than the air the gpu will give it to cool the aio fins
Yes, but at the same time it heats up your motherboard surface mount components, gpu, etc. I'm doing a test right now with mine mounted on the top as intake as well as a front intake and a rear exhaust. This way most of the hot air goes straight out the rear exhaust as they're lined up perfectly.
I have this exact case+ it’s a corsair 400c, his configuration is spot on, draw in cold air from the front, the heat rises and is drawn out by 2 140mm fans in the top of the case and 120mm fan as a rear exhaust. Cold air coming in the front to cool the components and the heat rises and is exhausted out the top rear. This is the most efficient way for cooling in this case.
I just ordered my H100i v2 today. I love the Wraith Cooler, but it's not effective in my opinion in keeping the chip cool. Does it come with the AM4 bracket? Or do I have to order that seperately? I have the Phanteks Eclipse Tempered Glass case, and it has plenty of room for 4 fans in Push/Pull. So I am going to need 16 screws for the fans in total. How many screws does the h100i v2 come with, and if I need extra screws, do you know off hand what type of screws do I need for fan mounting the fans. Lotta questions, but good video.
Thanks man. I looked on Corsairs Website, and ordered the bracket. I was referring to the long screws, I don't know the exact name of them. I just needed an extra 8 for the extra fans I am placing in the Push/Pull config.
if you get one that been on the shelves before AM4 came out then yes you will have to order it seperately, if you get one that was boxed after am4 came out then you will get it right in the box.
Yeah, I just literally checked now too. On the Amazon site, it said it didn't come with the bracket. Just ordered one off of Corsair's site, that bracket should be free...oh well.
you probably have solved it but to those who are reading and unsure. Check the bag of screws, if there is a small bag marked AM4 and another one marked AMD, then your mount is already compatible. I just got my h100iv2 today and it seems they replaced the old am3 only mount with a universal am4 one.
I just got this cooler today and it has AM4 components in a baggie. The "AM" bracket that was included in the box looks just like the AM4 bracket on the Corsair website.
Hello friends, I have a Ryzen 5 1600X with a Corsair H100i. I just built this together today (Full build here pcpartpicker.com/list/N4y83F) I am planning on getting a new graphics card but that's not the point. I am now confronted with the issue I had with my first built but I never thought I would with this cooler. My average temps are around 60-65 degrees celcius and actually went up to 77 degrees when using simple things such as web browsers. I will not dare put a game to test as I am worried for the CPU and Motherboard. Going through the BIOS the CPU is at 55 degrees. I put the fans to their full speed at least I put the highest voltage for the fans. I am worried if have to take this thing apart again and rework. Thank you very much friends EDIT: I used Corsair 4 Link to work with the cooler. The cooler at the max performance of both the pump and fan and it did not change a thing and if it did it was only by a few degrees. The CPU is also at only a mere 5% load.
I will try and help anyway I can but this could be very complex, first thing I would like to clarify with your comment is when you say your first build had the same problem is this with the same cpu and motherboard or a completely different system? Lets start here and based on your answer we will check other things.
Maple Syrup Gaming and Tech hey man thanks but I realized there is an issue with the Ryzen X CPUs where it shows +20 degrees while using third party software. I'm actually at 25-30 while idle and 45 at the most using the Master Ryzen program. Got up to 4.1 ghz out of it. Thanks for approaching it though definitely deserves a subscribe friend. :)
No it includes a bracket for previous AMD chipsets, Corsair used to send one for am4 to you for free but im not sure if thats still happening as it said limited time. I bought one from the computer shop I got the cooler from.
Why does no one show how to plug everything in.. this is extremely frustrating. Everyone thinks it's unnecessary, but I've wasted so much time looking for this one specific task, and everyone is like (It's not important, or it's easy blah blah) Fuuuuuu
@@MapleSyrupGamingandTech I figured it out for the most part. It is my first time installing one of these, so I was looking for confidence in my build instead of just winging it. The "molex" connectors look like a compatibility feature instead of plugs for fans. Then figuring out that the micro usb plug actually plugs into the base then to a usb hub on the motherboard. Also figuring out that aio pump plugs into the cpu fan socket (still not sure about this since my pump comes up as N/A in bios on asus prime x470-pro mobo). I seriously don't know if it's done correctly since the directions that come with the product are better served as toilet paper (mislabeled screws in depictions, lack of information). Currently have it set as a front mounted intake in a push configuration, and I don't really see much difference in temps. I can't even maintain stability with a bios overclock using ez tune. Ryzen master seems fine, but clocks are dissapointing. Only able to get to 3.85Mhz.
Nick Roeder im sorry man, I assumed it would not be interesting because every motherboard is different therefore usb2 headers and fan headers are never in tge same place but if u let me know what mobo you are using i ll send u a pick with proper headers highlighted. cheers :)
Here is a video indicating pump header and usb2 header placement ua-cam.com/video/rOR_XVxsmqw/v-deo.html, just pause it and take a look, and it was an esthetic decision to place it in front but yes it is possible to place it at the top, I was installing rgb fan kit at top and rear which will be shown in next video.
Wasn't sure if there was enough room for you I have a similar case but because of some of the heatsink/shields on the taichi it doesn't look like there is enough room on top. Supposedly our cases are pretty much identical though besides the side panel so we'll see.
it just so easy to pay 20 dollar to call a technician over to your house and let him do the work you just watch , treat him coffe hoping he would give you a discount or just ask for fuel money P.S you didn't show the Corsair H100i v2 water im quite dissapointed
It's no good saying this is what it looks like when what you are showing is just a blur, out of focus.
Hey, and thanks for the video. I just received my AM4 bracket for this cooler, and your video was helpful in answering some of the questions I had about installing it. So thanks!
Radiator up top is best to keep air bubbles out of the pump. No need to overtighten the block.
Was helpful, thanks man!
im just saying, its easier to use those standard screws that come with a fan. . . put 2 in opposite corners to keep it there and then 2 radiator screws to mount the rad in the other 2 free slots, and then remove the first set and put the other 2 radiator fan screws in
thanks for the video. Im sure both of us learnt from it.

Actually there was a video on whether radiator position matters, its better to put it at the front of the case like in the video
I guess I’m in luck because my msi aero 1070 is blower style
Well, old comment but still wrong, unless the top of the radiator is above pump, air will get stuck INSIDE the pump, will be more noisy and will get ur pump killed over time.

Maybe your motherboard became an intel fan-board

Nick Decker bitwit did a video and the front mounted fan actually kept the cpu cooler. the air it pushed through the rad to the case is still cooler than the air the gpu will give it to cool the aio fins
Yes, but at the same time it heats up your motherboard surface mount components, gpu, etc. I'm doing a test right now with mine mounted on the top as intake as well as a front intake and a rear exhaust. This way most of the hot air goes straight out the rear exhaust as they're lined up perfectly.
I have this exact case+ it’s a corsair 400c, his configuration is spot on, draw in cold air from the front, the heat rises and is drawn out by 2 140mm fans in the top of the case and 120mm fan as a rear exhaust. Cold air coming in the front to cool the components and the heat rises and is exhausted out the top rear.
This is the most efficient way for cooling in this case.
Your video is out of focus. How can we see anything?
I just ordered my H100i v2 today. I love the Wraith Cooler, but it's not effective in my opinion in keeping the chip cool. Does it come with the AM4 bracket? Or do I have to order that seperately?
I have the Phanteks Eclipse Tempered Glass case, and it has plenty of room for 4 fans in Push/Pull. So I am going to need 16 screws for the fans in total. How many screws does the h100i v2 come with, and if I need extra screws, do you know off hand what type of screws do I need for fan mounting the fans.
Lotta questions, but good video.
Thanks man. I looked on Corsairs Website, and ordered the bracket. I was referring to the long screws, I don't know the exact name of them. I just needed an extra 8 for the extra fans I am placing in the Push/Pull config.
if you get one that been on the shelves before AM4 came out then yes you will have to order it seperately, if you get one that was boxed after am4 came out then you will get it right in the box.
Aight cool, I just ordered it today so hopefully I won't need the bracket.
Yeah, I just literally checked now too. On the Amazon site, it said it didn't come with the bracket. Just ordered one off of Corsair's site, that bracket should be free...oh well.
RoTiSeRiE JoNeS it is free, you just need to make an account
I just recieved my h100iv2 and it has an amd bracket and i have an am4 motherboard asus rog x370f. Would if fit?
No. You need to order an AM4 Bracket from the Corsair website (it's free) and you only pay the shipping. I just recieved mine today.
you probably have solved it but to those who are reading and unsure. Check the bag of screws, if there is a small bag marked AM4 and another one marked AMD, then your mount is already compatible. I just got my h100iv2 today and it seems they replaced the old am3 only mount with a universal am4 one.
Thnx u saved me there i was abit worried to see if it doesn't come with one will it be compatiable with the x370 mobo
I just got this cooler today and it has AM4 components in a baggie. The "AM" bracket that was included in the box looks just like the AM4 bracket on the Corsair website.
"2160p" :D
this is the future
I probed the cooling pasta with my thumb. Did I screw up now? I can see thumb prints on there. I had no idea it was applied that thinly!
wth my pre installed Intel bracket won't come off I'm twisting to the left and it doesn't budge
Fuzion is your cooler the exact same model?? if not let me know what model you have and i ll see what i can do to help.
Maple Syrup Gaming and Tech mine too
Maple Syrup Gaming and Tech nvm
I can't see the computer cuz it is too blurry
im using this with the am3 racket ..with fx 8370 its the same racket??
yes exactly the same :)
Maple Syrup Gaming and Tech awesome thanks ..good video !!
Maple Syrup Gaming and Tech sorry another ? what about the back plate?
if i remeber properly for am3 you use the original backplate that comes with the motherboard
Maple Syrup Gaming and Tech so same for the am4 socket?? the board should come with thia back plate right?? thank u in advance
Installation starts..
"this is what you need and it should be facing like this..."
*shows a bunch of pixels
Wtf..
this video is outdated anyway. am4 sockets uses a different mounting setup currently
wtf is the temp??? what a ....
worst 4k video i have ever seen
dude never heard of auto focus
Can’t really see anything is all blur not focused at all dude
Nozzle??????????
Hello friends,
I have a Ryzen 5 1600X with a Corsair H100i. I just built this together today (Full build here pcpartpicker.com/list/N4y83F) I am planning on getting a new graphics card but that's not the point. I am now confronted with the issue I had with my first built but I never thought I would with this cooler. My average temps are around 60-65 degrees celcius and actually went up to 77 degrees when using simple things such as web browsers. I will not dare put a game to test as I am worried for the CPU and Motherboard. Going through the BIOS the CPU is at 55 degrees. I put the fans to their full speed at least I put the highest voltage for the fans. I am worried if have to take this thing apart again and rework.
Thank you very much friends
EDIT: I used Corsair 4 Link to work with the cooler. The cooler at the max performance of both the pump and fan and it did not change a thing and if it did it was only by a few degrees. The CPU is also at only a mere 5% load.
I will try and help anyway I can but this could be very complex, first thing I would like to clarify with your comment is when you say your first build had the same problem is this with the same cpu and motherboard or a completely different system? Lets start here and based on your answer we will check other things.
Maple Syrup Gaming and Tech hey man thanks but I realized there is an issue with the Ryzen X CPUs where it shows +20 degrees while using third party software. I'm actually at 25-30 while idle and 45 at the most using the Master Ryzen program. Got up to 4.1 ghz out of it. Thanks for approaching it though definitely deserves a subscribe friend. :)
Glad you got it figured out if you update to latest drivers amd corrected that issue and your temps should start showing as normal. Cheers
Is this bracket now included or no?
No it includes a bracket for previous AMD chipsets, Corsair used to send one for am4 to you for free but im not sure if thats still happening as it said limited time. I bought one from the computer shop I got the cooler from.
Why does no one show how to plug everything in.. this is extremely frustrating. Everyone thinks it's unnecessary, but I've wasted so much time looking for this one specific task, and everyone is like (It's not important, or it's easy blah blah) Fuuuuuu
Which part exactly are you having problems with let me know and i'll find a way to give you a hand.
@@MapleSyrupGamingandTech I figured it out for the most part. It is my first time installing one of these, so I was looking for confidence in my build instead of just winging it. The "molex" connectors look like a compatibility feature instead of plugs for fans. Then figuring out that the micro usb plug actually plugs into the base then to a usb hub on the motherboard. Also figuring out that aio pump plugs into the cpu fan socket (still not sure about this since my pump comes up as N/A in bios on asus prime x470-pro mobo). I seriously don't know if it's done correctly since the directions that come with the product are better served as toilet paper (mislabeled screws in depictions, lack of information). Currently have it set as a front mounted intake in a push configuration, and I don't really see much difference in temps. I can't even maintain stability with a bios overclock using ez tune. Ryzen master seems fine, but clocks are dissapointing. Only able to get to 3.85Mhz.
What kind of gay tattoo is that?
Dumb poes
nice homophobia I recommend you abstain from commenting before you get reported
I watched the video to see where the wires get plugged into but you said that part was easy and didnt show it.....fail lol.
Nick Roeder im sorry man, I assumed it would not be interesting because every motherboard is different therefore usb2 headers and fan headers are never in tge same place but if u let me know what mobo you are using i ll send u a pick with proper headers highlighted. cheers :)
The same one in this video its why I clicked on the video lol. Also was there no room on top or did you not even try?
Here is a video indicating pump header and usb2 header placement ua-cam.com/video/rOR_XVxsmqw/v-deo.html, just pause it and take a look, and it was an esthetic decision to place it in front but yes it is possible to place it at the top, I was installing rgb fan kit at top and rear which will be shown in next video.
Wasn't sure if there was enough room for you I have a similar case but because of some of the heatsink/shields on the taichi it doesn't look like there is enough room on top. Supposedly our cases are pretty much identical though besides the side panel so we'll see.
Did he say sex instead on seconds?
secs* perhaps, slang for seconds.
At least show us the screws u are screwing in ffs
it just so easy to pay 20 dollar to call a technician over to your house and let him do the work you just watch , treat him coffe hoping he would give you a discount or just ask for fuel money
P.S you didn't show the Corsair H100i v2 water im quite dissapointed
I cant see shit
this video is blury as shit i cant see anything.................
I had to down vote your video, it's not deaf friendly. No subtitle.
Nice to... hear that bro
