Know before you buy
The H150i ELITE CAPELLIX XT uses a 360mm radiator, which requires a case with support for three 120mm fans side-by-side. Before purchasing, verify that your case has a dedicated 360mm mounting location, typically at the top or front panel.
Yes, high-performance thermal paste is pre-applied to the copper cold plate right out of the box. This simplifies the installation process and ensures you have the correct amount for optimal heat transfer.
The included iCUE COMMANDER CORE controller manages both fan speeds and lighting, but you will need to install Corsair's iCUE software on your PC to customize these settings. Without the software, the fans and LEDs will run on their default factory profiles.
Yes, this cooler supports a wide range of modern sockets, including Intel LGA 1700 and AMD AM5. It comes with the necessary mounting brackets for these platforms, making it a future-proof choice for most recent builds.
Zero RPM mode allows the fans to stop spinning completely when your CPU is at low temperatures, such as when you are browsing the web or idling. This eliminates fan noise entirely during light tasks and helps extend the lifespan of the fan bearings.
The installation is designed to be straightforward thanks to the modular, tool-free mounting brackets. While you will need to manage the cables for the three fans and the pump, the included COMMANDER CORE helps centralize these connections to keep your build tidy.
