Verdict

Corsair iCUE LINK H100i RX

8.1 / 10 Expert Rating

A well-executed mid-size entry into Corsair's cable-simplifying iCUE LINK ecosystem, priced for the ecosystem rather than raw thermals alone.

Scythe Mugen 6

7.6 / 10 Expert Rating

A quietly reliable budget single-tower cooler that carries forward Scythe's long-standing acoustic focus.
