In our first test with the CPU at stock settings H100i sets a new benchmark pushing past its predecessor. During quiet mode the H100i achieves low-noise and still maintains a high ranking. The minor changes Corsair have made have clearly improved upon an already successful product. It's important to note that the H100 has the following fan speed settings as previously tested: 1300 RPM (Low)2000RPM (Mid) 2500RPM (High) - by knowing these values we can see H100's fans are operating at the same speeds as H100i and results are comparable.

Quiet Mode: 1100RPM – Low noise and relatively unnoticeable.
Maximum Mode: 2500RPM – Much more noticeable compared to quiet mode but not as disruptive as other 2500RPM fans.
