After that, you simply align the pump unit with the screws (thermal paste is pre-applied) and secure it with four thumbscrews – the pump unit has the Intel mounting bracket pre-attached but it's easy to twist off and replace it with the AMD one if necessary. The first step is to attach the double-sided mounting screws – either to the default AMD backplate, directly to the LGA2011 or LGA2011-v3 socket or, for all other Intel users, to the supplied plastic backplate which has pre-attached standoffs. Installation is very easy regardless of socket. That said, the coolers function fully as plug and play devices.Ĭlick to enlarge - The H80i GT's pump unit is the same as the H100i GTX's There's also an onboard mini-USB connector, which you can hook up to a USB 2 header on your motherboard using the supplied cable for pump, fan and LED software control using Corsair Link. This is a neat design as it means you only need one header to power everything. It has two captive cables, one 3-pin header that you connect directly to your motherboard's CPU fan header and a second that ends in two female 4-pin connectors, to which you connect the fans. The logo has an RGB LED behind it and as usual, the unit makes use of a copper contact plate. The low-profile pump unit has a plastic cover but is a fairly sturdy affair nonetheless. They fans sport seven wide blades designed to provide lots of static pressure and their 4-pin connector is found at the end of a flat black cable. Similarly, this means the H80i GT has a push-pull design, while it's push or pull only for the H100i GTX unless you add two more fans. Both coolers are supplied with two of Corsair's SP120L PWM fans, the same as those used in the H75 and H105.
