CWCH70 - Corsair Hydro Series H70
Key Features
120 x 50mm Radiator
The Hydro Series H70 uses a high-quality 120mm radiator unit that is
double the thickness of the radiator used in the Hydro Series H50.
The increased thickness of the radiator unit, compared to the H50,
equates to a larger internal volume and hence higher coolant
capacity. The total surface area of cooling fins is also vastly
increased. Both of these upgrades contribute to significantly higher
cooling capacity compared to the H50 and other high-end HSFs.
Low Profile Pump Unit
The Corsair Hydro Series H70 utilizes a low-profile
pump / cold-plate unit. This compact, high-
performance pump unit not only allows the H70 to
be used in a wide range of systems / chassis, where
the size of many premium HSFs would be prohibitive,
but it also places no stress on the motherboard for
better overall system reliability.
High Performance Copper Cold Plate
The Hydro Series H70 utilizes an improved copper cold
plate, which is directly integrated into the pump unit.
The high-quality cold plate soaks ups heat from the
CPU and dissipates it into the coolant via copper
micro-channels. This provides significantly higher
cooling capacity compared to the Hydro H50 and
traditional heatpipe-based HSFs.
Push-Pull 120mm Fans
The Hydro Series H70 utilizes two high-quality 120mm cooling fans in a push-pull configuration.
The fans are speed-switchable between 2000rpm for maximum cooling performance and
overclocking flexibility, for enthusiasts who want to push their CPUs to the limit, and 1600rpm for
those who want a balance between powerful cooling performance and low sound levels.
