I've been searching for a water cooler for a long time and I can't decide which one I want. I was looking at the Corsair H110i v2 and also the Kraken X52.. Are there any other AIO coolers that are better or similar to these two?
 
Solution
As mentioned before, the H115i and Kraken X62 are the 280mm versions of the ones you mentioned and cool a little better at lower fan rpm than their 240mm counterparts.

EVGA has a CLC 280 that is on par with the other two mentioned. They all use the same asetek radiator so all three have relatively the same performance.

the only differences between krappen and h110 are branding, warranty and fans.
they are made at the same factory by asetek.
and when you are talking about this crap wannabe liquid cooling AIOs, the best one is good air cooler which cost less, dose same or better job and usually at lower noise.
 


Can you show some benchmarks with what you are saying? Most benchmarks I see the Corsair falls just behind the Kraken. The only time Corsair beats Kraken is when the H115i fans are at 2300rpm max speed vs Kraken's 1700rpm max speed, also take in to account the noise level and the Corsair loses. All of this comparison is irrelevant though because what's 1C difference? Not much to worry about, so pick the one that you like best. If you're buying an AiO it's not about budget value, because the obvious choice would be an air cooler.

The only thing Corsair beat Kraken in was noise, and that was the older X61. But I would agree with you that Corsair is the better value, I just don't agree that Kraken is crap for the money. The X61 is only $10 more than the H100i and the X62 is so expensive because it has an RGB LED that is unrivaled.

I'd say it's about time Corsair came out with a new version of their cooler.
 
I probably have not explained my self well.
ANY AIO is overpriced crap.
my point was that NZXT, Corsar, TT, Arctic, EVGA, Be Quiet and many others are made on the same factory by Asetek and that decent AIR cooler like Noctua performs the same at much lower noise.
 


Oh sorry, yes I missed what you were saying.
