Keeps my 13700k at a solid 40-70c during idle and load. Cinebench had it at a solid 100c the whole time. Easy to install. LCD screen looks great. Only complaint is that the fans and the cooler are actually quite loud, even on quiet mode. A bit expensive, but I had a H100i ELITE Capellix before and it lasted me quite a while, I trust Corsair products to be reliable. My only complaint with that one too was the occasional gurgle sounds toward the end. If you want the luxury look of the LCD screen, and a solid cooler, I’d recommend.

Very nice water cooler with some neat features like showing the coolent temp as a default. The best part is the customizable screen on the pump. It was a little bard to set up but once it was in there it worked as soon as i turned on the computer. The only gripe i have with it is the software it uses when you want to set a default image on the cooler which can be a little confusing since the software it uses doesnt properly tell you how to set up thr lighting for when it is closed.

Aesthetically beautiful. Easy install. iCUE software allows for easy lighting/fan customizations. The LCD screen is also customizable to include photos/gifs/etc.
Note: You're paying top dollar for a "mid-tier" AIO (performance-wise). I knew that going in - I was more interested in the visuals pairing this AIO with my existing build.
I'm running a 12th gen Intel (paired with z790) and after swapping from my NZXT to the iCUE H100i, my PC ran a lot hotter. I ended up exchanging the H100i to the H150i (fixed). Make sure you do your research and choose the right AIO for your setup.

I bought a prebuilt pc to get into the hobby and wanted to do some upgrades. After upgrading the ram i wanted to do something cool, so i snagged this. This was my first time having to install anything like this and it was really easy to do. Its keeping my CPU nice and cool and the customizable screen is just way to awesome!!! Im not noticing much sound at all from the new addition and highly recommend to anyone

Amazing upgrade from Cooler Master. You’ll definitely get what you’re paying for the quality and performance are amazing. It’s keeping my temps anywhere from 5-10 Celsius cooler and barely makes any noise. The LCD customization is so much more than I expected it’s very quick and easy to change out of gifs and pictures. If you want an upgrade and some crazy customization this is where it’s at.

I bought a computer from CyberPower and they put a AMD wraith cooler on a R7 7700x, and obliviously that isn't enough. Downloading a steam game I was getting 90c and playing f a game it would shut down. So I installed this, now gaming it doesn't get over 70c often. I see it spike up to 80c and then come back down. Some games like Ghost Recon Breakpoint the temps stay at the 40-50c range. Although it didn't come with install directions, but found them online.

Keeps my i7 14700k at 35 C at idle and 75 C ( give or take 2-3C ) max when gaming. All in all a great AIO cooler. Plus how could you not want goku powering up a spirit bomb on your cpu.. like..COME ON.

As much as I think this thing is ridiculous, it has grown on me.
It definitely adds to the customization inside of your case and keeps the temps in check.
The iCue software seems a bit funky but I will need to tinker.

Not worth the price due to lifespan. Can’t refill

I wouldn’t say it’s worth the price. After about 8 months the coolant and thermal past already went bad. The temps aren’t too impressive but is not bad when brand new. This wouldn’t be a problem if they had a valve for you to drain and replace fluid. Only way to do it is take it apart or remove tubing and replace with aftermarket parts

Hello Kyle,
This is a closed loop not meant to have its liquid replaced. If the cooler isn't faulty, then reapplying thermal paste should get you rid of any temperature issues you're experiencing.

The fans and pump are really quiet when set to quiet mode in Corsair Icue software. This cpu liquid cooler made a big difference in temperatures when compared to the amd stock air cpu cooler that came with my ryzen 7 3700x processor. My cpu temperatures went down at least 10 degrees in recent games like Forspoken.

Easy set up and great cooling power! Also, the icue software even lets you put a picture in place of the temp screen. You can have a picture of your dog in your computer case it can’t get any better than that!

My biggest disappointment about this is actually the LCD screen. You can't make your own custom panels that display temperatures and other important information. It's either you can upload your own photo, or you can use a premade temperature guage. I honestly only like one of the preset options that let you display information, and would recommend this if you could make your own similar to AIDA64 based info panels.
I can't recommend this product in it's current "featureless" state. Please add a temp panel customizer.

Hello Nick,
And thanks for your feedback. It's not quite a featureless state that the product is in but understand your frustration with the lack of those options.

Very poor piece of equipment and software. On my second unit after being warrantied after three weeks of use.
Pros:
Easy to install
Looks nice when working
Keeps cpu cool
Cons:
iCue software does not always detect cooler and fails to
allow for pictures/animations on screen
**Do not** try to update the cooler software in hopes of alleviating these issues, will cause unit to brick itself in update process
Ring intermittently functions
Screen stops displaying anything at all

The CORSAIR iCUE H100i ELITE LCD XT is an impressive cooling solution that keeps my CPU temperatures low even during heavy workloads. The IPS LCD screen adds a cool personal touch, letting me display system stats or custom images. Installation was straightforward, and the iCUE software makes customization easy. The fans are quiet, but they can ramp up audibly under intense loads. Overall, it’s a sleek, functional addition to any build looking for reliable liquid cooling with a bit of flair!

Works great i saw temps drop by as much as 5 degrees at idle and never get above 90 degrees I'm running a ryzen 5 7600x. The lcd screen looks great but i have had some issues with the icue software
