About this deal

Next, make sure that your Windows system is up to date with all major, critical, and optional updates. You may want to go to a manual fan curve. Even the quiet one will blast the fans at 40C and that is idle. If the interior temp is also 39C, there is nothing you can do with the fans to make it less. If you only see the Commander Core, power down your system and make sure that the cable from your Elite Capellix is fully and correctly plugged in to your Commander Core. Also, setting to a decibel 'value' also isn't entirely accurate and can leave a larger range for operational limits. Example, there might actually be a variation of +/-300 RPM where the measurable difference of a single decibel is seen, but 300 RPM is actually a significant difference in the amount of airflow being moved. 1200 RPM and 1500 RPM actually end up performing quite differently. It becomes difficult to replicate test runs without variables based on decibel levels alone as the same measurement of 35dB for one test can easily fall outside of acceptable deviation. ML might make a slight difference (1-2C), but not really worth fussing over unless you are at a specific temp limit. The delta for gaming (39 to 50C) is basically at the +10C I generally quote as expected. It's the 39C baseline that is higher.

Are these liquid temperatures normal? Or perhaps the 5900x just runs hot and this is a sign that the coolant is doing its job? The H150i ELITE CAPELLIX will cost more than other 360mm coolers, but you are not only paying for RGB. For that cost you are also getting an added bonus with the magnetic levitation fans which is one of the best bearings available! They are very quiet, only audible when being pushed near to full speed. The only noise they emit will be from airflow. The pump is also very quiet, operating at under 20 dBA!Everyone seems to be making all-in-one liquid CPU coolers, and Corsair has been in the business for many years now. Most AIO solutions make use of Asetek's pump and AIO design, including the Corsair H150i Elite Capellix. It's almost identical to the Corsair H150i Elite LCD, aside from a few notable differences (namely that display). Many of the previous solutions from Corsair to hit our lab for testing have floundered in thermal results, leaving us with little choice but to remove points from the awards with a heavy hand. However, with what we have seen with the H150i Elite Capellix, with chart-topping results in extreme mode, and top-five finishes in balanced mode, sways our perspective of what to expect when it comes to the new Corsair sealed AIOs! So much comes in the box, which you are left wanting nothing when it is all installed and ready to run!

The Corsair iCUE software worked perfectly for controlling the fan speeds and RGB lighting of everything, while also showing the pump RPM. Another nice feature is the included iCUE Commander CORE can readily accept up to three more RGB fans. Installation is a breeze, as everything is labeled very clearly and supports basically every AMD and Intel processor released in roughly the last decade.

Support for the iCUE H150i Elite Capellix covers all of the current processors! AM4, sTR4, and sTRX4 are supported out of the box for AMD, while on the Intel side, there are 115X, 1200, and 2011(V3)/2066 support. The last bit in the chart covers the five-year warranty.

The average thermal resistance of 0.0704 °C/W is impressive but users need to keep in mind that this performance comes with the fans rotating at their maximum speed. With the powerful fans of the H150i Elite Capellix, this results to a sound pressure level of 43 dB(A), a relatively high figure for a CPU cooler. However all that said, when I ran the O11D as a dual 360mm radiator exhaust and completely passive intake from the rear and bottom, my idle coolant temps were no where close your levels. My max load levels were about your idle temps in the Winter with a similar 22C ambient. Something isn't quite right. The part I don't like is with the glass off and a 22C room ambient, it should take deliberate gaming load or hours of idle time before you should see a coolant temp creep to +13C over ambient and frankly I don't think it should ever be +13C over ambient at idle in that case.

Make sure all 4 screws are tightened until secure. With the side panels off and at idle, the coolant temp reaches about 34.5 C (Balanced preset) or 38-39 C (relaxed custom curve). So about 2 C cooler.
