    Looking at the review it really is a well made revision of the H100... May have to pick myself up an H80i after I've seen it tested to see if it performs as well as the H100 v the H100i.

    nice review thanks for posting, I like how they mounted the radiator outside the case, looks like the H100i is a big improvement on something already great, looking forward to bit-techs analysis.

    I would love to see something like this with a 60mm or 80mm thick rad and a fin layout similar to the XSPC RX series rad's, which I think use sub 8 or sub 7 FPI(?) and then bundled with some quiet fans.

    After using 60mm thick rad's myself, I cannot go back to use 35mm rads and don't even recommend rads that are not 60mm thick to people, or recommend these types of coolers.

    I know they perform well but I think they could offer a performance range for those of us who have enough room for a 60mm rad in our case, and want better performance from a all in one cooler without, having to mess around with building a custom loop.

    I will be & I'll be fitting it over the Christmas holidays. I wish I'd bought one now they're out of stock - any word on when they'll be in?

    I wish they would include enough screws for 4 fans. I imagine most people are using 4 fans with the H100s as I am.

    the nh-d14 seems awfully low in their comparison chart

    is the 100i that much better..?

    Put it this way - if the H100 can beat the nh-d14 on low (let alone on high) and the H100i on Quiet can beat the H100 on high then yes, yes it is :thumb:

    I'd like to see a review of the H60i, the thinner profile of the rad appeals to me but if it's not close to the H80i then it will have to be a H80i.

    As detailed in our previous email, the estimated lead date given to us from our suppliers was 24/11/2012.

    I can wait and will wait as the reviews so far for this cooler looks damn good

    I hope it's today too so I can actually order one - doubt the stock status will change this late though...

    They're still showing as out of stock on their site - they can't have sold out already can they?
