Corsair Hydro X Series XH305i Hardline Water Cooling Kit with/incl XC7 CPU Water Block, XR5 360mm Radiator, XD5 Pump Res and iCUE QL120 RGB Fans

The media could not be loaded. This was my first PC build and my philosophy was go big or go home! I originally was just going to replace my GPU, and picked up a RTX 3090, but things quickly snowballed from there. What was meant to be a simple GPU switch out, turned into completely redoing my rig except for my motherboard and PCU. Since I got a new case and new RGB RAM I decided that I would try doing hardline PC cooling. The Corsair Hydro X system along with a generous amount of YouTube and here are the results! I only comment is, if you are considering this make sure you plan it out well and make sure you have enough fittings to accomplish the loop you want. Long story short, this is a great product and pretty easy to install.

The media could not be loaded. First time installing water cooling. Kit has everything for install of a single cpu, and rad. Had to purchase additional rad and fittings to install additional 360 mm and 140 mm rad. If video card doesn't come with a water block,, you will need one as well. Pump has no problems with the added rads. Make sure that if this is your first time installing water cooling, buy more tubing as I did and don't be upset if you mess up one or two tubes. Cones with the leading process. Make sure to water test before adding power to motherboard. System runs under full load (benchmark test 1 hour+) 65 - 70 C on junction with overclocked cpu (ryzen 9 5950 4.5 ghz) and over clocked gpu (Radeon rx 6900 xt)

The media could not be loaded. It is the best watercooler ever. It soooo silent that I barely notice it was on. It makes my Ryzen 9 5950x stays in 42°C, what is unbelivable. It's RGB combines with my GeForce RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra. It was hard to find, there's none in Brazil, só I had to change my region to USA and pay almost 700 dollars in taxes, but this product worth the price. Recommend to everyone. You won't regreat buying it.

I wish I had better things to say about this kit. Corsair products have been a reliable part of my setup in the past. This kit however, was very unfortunate financial decision on my part.To preface, I have been working on my water cooling build for over a month now.1. The CPU Water Block RGB lights were dead on arrival. This was confirmed by testing on a separate build and eventually buying the same model separately, which worked fine.2. All 3 fans lit up partially for a few hours, then the RGB died altogether. I spent hours on forums digging up any and all info on what I may have done wrong and followed every instruction as closely as possible. I checked, double checked, triple checked, switched things around in every conceivable combination, and swapped things out when hooking the fans up to the Commander Pro/RGB Hub, to no avail. Even going to far as buying a new, separate Commander Pro and RGB hub to rule those out as the issue. Still no change. If I’ve done something wrong at this point, Corsair makes it one hell of a battle to get things in working order.3. The Commander Pro that originally came in this kit did not detect the water temperature for whatever odd reason, as well as the fans shutting off at random intervals. The new one I bought worked just fine.In conclusion, the only original part of this kit I still have in my pc is the pump/reservoir (I decided to go with soft tubing instead by personal choice.) I also had to waste the included coolant in the loop when I was forced to swap the CPU Water Block.Buyer beware: Not only did several components not work for me, but when it came to deciding if I wanted my money back, this decision wasn’t a simple yes or no. Since troubleshooting took place over a long span of time, the return window had closed. In addition, since this is a kit, even if I wanted to attempt a return, the pump/reservoir setup and all existing coolant in the loop would have to be uninstalled and drained, then packed back up to be returned. Plus, the return process would leave me without my primary computer in the interim, which I rely on for work. I may look into sending back only the parts that didn’t work to Corsair directly.This was my experience, your experience may be different. But take caution before you buy.

Great kit, went from 50 degrees to around 30 degrees Celsius at the CPU.Only 2 things I disliked.1: When filling your reservoir with coolant... take the tip of the filler off. It fell off in my reservoir and took me longer to get it out than to fit the pipe.2: I tried every way (I used to install pipe on submarines) to cut the pipe, it would either break or cut slanted.. best way I’ve found is with an air/electric grinder with a cutting wheel.

Bought this kit for my first custom loop and wow I'm amazed at how easy it was to put this all together and once you get the hang of bending the tubes its a lot of fun just remember to buy a heatgun as this does not come with one!

It was first time for me to set up a custom loop and it was harder than I thought.The acrylic tubes are very tedious to work with, but the finished look of right angle and cut is just so pleasing.Ps: I had to buy 6 more 14mm tube..
