K70 RGB, K70 RGB PRO, K70 Lux RGB, K70 RGB Rapidfire, K70 RGB SE Rapidfire, K70 Lux, K70 Rapidfire, K70 PRO MINI As you can see from my screenshot I get about 35-38C idle, and even pegging all 10 cores to 100% it maxes out at 65C, still pretty chill for a CPU and nowhere near thermal throttling. I can run it at 100% for hours and hours and that's as hot as it ever gets. I fitted an old H80i I had laying around to an Asus TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS D4 motherboard with an i7 12700 CPU and it works very well. The copper plate still covers the entire CPU heat spreader, even though it's quite a bit bigger than an LGA1200 one. I get more than decent temps, and very low noise on idle. My original point remains, you can use the H80i no problems at all on LGA1700 with the LGA1200 mounting kit, I am writing this post on a machine with that exact setup. In these days in Tuscany (where I live) we're having very hot days (over 40C), but my house is quite fresh and I'm able to manage the temperatures quite well even under gaming.

Someone asked same question 4 years ago about 1 fan vs 2 fans on CPU cooler and one tested it with H80i cooler similar as your cooler.

What's An "Indie Game", Anyway?

So i'm building a new Alder lake pc, and I happen to have an H80i v2 from my previous one. I was very happy with its performance and would love to use it in my new H210i, since I gather it would be about the only AIO I could fit on the rear exhaust that could handle my new i5-12600K (I wanna leave the front rad slot open for a GPU cooler). I got this image from guru3d review of the H60 . My motherboard doesn't have the CPU_OPT header. What do I do? The Corsair H80i v2 driver runs on your operating system and enables it to communicate with the CPU cooler you use. If the driver hasn’t been properly installed on your computer, your Corsair cooler won’t fully function.

Maximum coolant temperature in regard to the physical system limits? Or how much should you expect to see for your use?"... well, both indeed. Maximum coolant temperature in regard to the physical system limits? Or how much should you expect to see for your use? From there, proceed with your typical Hydro Series cooler installation (don't forget to plug in your power and USB cables).

Lian-Li introduced the new Galahad II Trinity series of AIO liquid coolers this year in a variety of models and configurations. If you are looking for something that offers great performance and sports plenty of RGB lighting, then the new Galahad II Trinity SL-INF 240 should satisfy your needs. This version comes with Lian-Li's SL-Infinity 120mm RGB fans that are just loaded with RGB lighting all around. It even comes with infinity mirror effects, on the main fan hub and both sides of the frame to give a unique look, and like most Lian-Li fans they can be daisy chained easily for better cable management. Even the pump-head can be customized with three deferent caps bundled in the box for a unique RGB look.
