Corsair has presented us with a number of water cooling solutions in the past. This new kit is perhaps new to Corsair, but not for the PC market. Corsair Hydro H50 is the name of the cooler, which is a simple model with the pump integrated into the water block connected to 120mm radiator in a closed loop. If the design of the coolers looks familiar it’s because it’s the latest version of the LCLC cooler from Asetek.
