Special thanks to Corsair for providing us with the H80i GT for review! The H80 was an excellent entry level cooler for those looking for higher performance back then lets check out the latest version the H80i GT and see if the same is still true today. While many things have changed, some things such as the dual fans and super thick radiator have stayed the same. It had a much thicker radiator than my cooler and dual fans as well! Flash forward half a decade and here we are with the newest iteration of that cooler. I had started out my overclocking adventures a little while before that using an H70 and remember thinking how cool it would be to step up to the bigger more powerful H80. Looking back into the not too distant past I can remember when the original Corsair H80 AIO cooler come out.
