H100i vs H100i V2

[Deniedstingray]

So i just bought a Refurbished H100i for about half its normal price because it is a good deal and this is my first AIO so i don't want to spend a lot but still maintain quality.

I just noticed there is a "V2" version of the cooler. Is this just a rebrand with an unnecessary price hike or am i missing out on something?

Nothing I would pay a premium for. The main changes are quieter fans, a newer mounting system, and a slight change to the dimensions of radiator. Besides that a review I saw listed minor changes in temps probably attributed to the v2 having weaker but quieter fans.
