CORSAIR H55, H100, and H150 RGB AIO coolers: Everything you need to know

Here at CORSAIR we pride ourselves on making AIO coolers that constantly top the charts, cooling even the most fiery CPUs, remaining cool and looking good while doing so. However, sometimes our CPU coolers simply don’t fit within a prospective buyer’s budget.

This is why we like to produce more budget-friendly products across all our categories, and the latest affordable offerings when it comes to CPU coolers are the H55, H100, and H150 RGB AIO coolers. So, let’s take a closer look at our newest set of budget AIO coolers.

Available sizes and lighting

As with our other AIO coolers, we’re offering these in a range of sizes, including the more elusive 120mm single-fan variant. All variants come with our CORSAIR SP120 RGB ELITE PWM fans, meaning that noise and thermal performance won’t be a concern.

You’ll note that the lighting of all three of these coolers can be controlled via the ARGB header on a compatible motherboard (here's a breakdown of the differences between ARGB and RGB). These coolers do not work with iCUE out of the box. However, this can be done via a CORSAIR iCUE COMMANDER CORE XT or iCUE Lighting Node CORE XT. (Both sold separately). Regardless of how you choose to control the lighting, you’ll be able enjoy the vivid lightshow courtesy of 13x LEDs on the pump and 16x on each fan.

Additionally, both the H150 and H100 RGB are available in white colorways, too. So, if you’re looking for an angelic, all-white build, we’ve got you covered.

Typically, we don’t offer single 120mm fan versions our AIOs, however, given that this line of products is more budget-oriented, it makes sense here. Of course, a single-fan AIO can sometimes be the saving grace for those who like small form-factor builds but want to take advantage of CORSAIR’s characteristic build quality.

Additionally, most standard cases have a 120mm fan mount at the back, which can’t be used by the usual 240mm and 360mm AIOs, the CORSAIR H55 RGB would fit nicely here. Remember to check your specific case, though, as the radiator covers a bit more space than a straight 120mm x 120mm square. For the technologically-adept among you, here’s the full specs.

However, if you’re looking for a larger AIO, then the next step up could be your solution, so let’s take a look at the CORSAIR H100 RGB.

CORSAIR H100 RGB

The H100 RGB is a 240mm cooler, meaning that you get 2x 120mm fans and a corresponding 240mm x 120mm radiator. This is the most popular size of radiator, with most mid-tower cases, like our iCUE 4000D RGB AIRFLOW and many small form-factor cases, like our 2000D RGB AIRFLOW Mini-ITX easily being able to accommodate it.

Additionally, if you’ve got a faster CPU, it will require more cooling, and sometimes a 120mm AIO won’t be enough. Of course, a cooler of this size probably won’t fit into the back exhaust fan mount of most cases, our Obsidian Series 1000D Super-Tower Case being a notably monolithic example. Here’s the full specs:

CORSAIR H100 RGB specs

  • Radiator Dimensions: 277mm x 120 mm x 27mm
  • Included fans: 2x SP RGB ELITE fans
  • Fan Max Speed: 400–1500 RPM
  • Fan Dimensions: 120mm x 120mm x 25mm
  • Fan Airflow (per fan): 22.85–47.73 CFM
  • Fan Static Pressure: 0.41mm–1.46mm-H2O
  • Fan Noise Level: 7–28dB (A)
  • Tubing Length: 400mm
  • Tubing Material: Low-permeation Rubber
  • Socket Support:
    AMD: AM4, AM5
    Intel: LGA 1700, 1200, 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1851
  • Warranty: 3 years

Of course, some cases can fit a 360mm cooler at the front or at the top, and some CPUs could certainly do with some additional cooling capacity, so let’s talk about the H150.

CORSAIR H150 RGB

On to the biggest Cooler in this specific lineup, the CORSAIR H150 RGB. This triple 120mm fan variant has the greatest cooling potential of all three. This makes it a handsome match for the hottest of CPUs, with many cases being able to fit the H150 in the front or at the top. Good for the CORSAIR 5000D AIRFLOW enjoyers out there, alongside a myriad other mid to full-tower cases, too.

Additionally, the larger the radiator, the slower the fans have to spin, so the H150 will be the quietest of the three. If you can fit a triple-fan AIO in your case and you’re particularly concerned about keeping your PC quiet, this is the correct option. Full specs, as always, are to follow:

CORSAIR H150 RGB specs

  • Radiator Dimensions: 397mm x 120 mm x 27mm
  • Included fans: 3x SP RGB ELITE fans
  • Fan Max Speed: 400–1500 RPM

  • Fan Airflow (per fan): 22.85–47.73 CFM
  • Fan Static Pressure: 0.41mm–1.46mm-H2O
  • Fan Noise Level: 7–28dB (A)
  • Tubing Length: 400mm
  • Tubing Material: Low-permeation Rubber
  • Socket Support:
  • AMD: AM4, AM5
