Review: Something old, something new

Corsair launched its H50 high performance CPU cooling almost a year ago, but the real reason why we’re talking about it today is the recently announced CoolIT ECO A.L.C. cooler. Now that the ECO A.L.C. is here, Corsair H50 has finally gotten a strong competitor, both price wise and performance wise. We’ve already reviewed the ECO A.L.C. so now we’ll move onto the Corsair H50. These two cooling systems are already preinstalled water cooling setups, so there’s no need for adding water, connecting the pipes or any other assembly tasks. It’s exactly this simplicity of installation and relatively small size that made these solutions popular among the masses, and many use them as replacements for high-end air coolers.
