Hyper 212 evo or H70

[theloveablemoose]

Got offered to exchange my hyper 212 evo for a H70 good trade or not the use isn't really for my CPU as in the future i would like to mount a kraken G10 to my GPU for some water cooling but in the meantime i will be using it on my CPU. 

Some things i would like to know to those who own corsair watercoolers:

Are the fans loud if so do they easily under volt and will i notice a significant temperature decrease.

Thanks in advance

at 12v they are loud as f**** but at like 40% its all good and temps are ok (at least they were with my h100 and the difference between 12v wasnt that great)

Just stick with the 212, the h70 might perform abit better but it'll be way louder, and you have the constant pump noise. If it isn't broke, don't fix it.

how noticeable is the pump is it comparable to a hard drive head moving around and ill probably have the pump in the lowest setting i like silence

It's noticeable lol, that's the reason I got rid of my AIO, HDD's arnt anywhere near as loud.

I'd stick with the 212 Evo. There's no point in going for single fan water coolers. If he was offering a H100 or some other dual fan rad, I'd say yes

yeah im not gonna bother seems like too much hassle if anyhting goes wrong as well since corsair apparently legendary warranty is non transferable
