The bottom of the pump we find the flawless copper cold plate. This does provide a slightly cleaner look, however it can make the final installation look a little different than expected. With the H80i GT, the hoses go directly into the top of the pump and can not be rotated. Previously, they connected to the side of the pump and were able to be rotated a little to put them into the best position for your system. One of the big changes is how the hoses connect to the pump. Does the extra 11mm thick radiator make a significant difference when it comes to cooling performance? We’ll see just how the extra thick radiator stands up to thinner radiators when we get to the testing phase. The radiator on the H105 is 38mm thick, whereas the H80i GT is a girthy 49mm thick. Placing the H80i GT next to the Corsair H105, the thickness becomes obvious. Coming off the pump are two cables, a Y fan power cable, and a three-pin motherboard fan power connector.Īs previously mentioned, Corsair has made the H80i GT a little thicker than other coolers. The second appearance change is the fabric wrapped tubes, much nicer looking than the plain rubber tubes.
On the radiator and pump there are two silver areas that include the Corsair logo and Name. The two 120mm fans are placed in a cardboard box providing some additional protection.Ĭorsair made a few changes on the new H80i GT, two of the changes is purely for appearance. An egg carton type of material is used to separate the various components which are bagged separately. Opening the box, the internal packaging is pretty common across AIO liquid coolers. On one side the box contents is provided, while the other side provides a list of features and information on what Corsair Link does for the H80i GT. The sides of the box provides a little additional information. This technical information includes a dimensional diagram of the radiator, fan specification, and some additional basic information on the other components. The front of the box provides a nice overview picture of the H80i GT, along with listing a few of the key features such as Corsair Link compatibility, dual 120mm fans, and the five year warranty.įor those that want more information, Corsair provides a lot of technical information on the back of the box in multiple languages. The box itself is made of sturdy cardboard, providing plenty of shipping protection. Corsair packages the H80i GT for the retail market, and provides plenty of information for a user that is unfamiliar with the product to know exactly what they are looking at.
