I need to get a CPU cooler that can fit well. The cooler needs to be able to fit within 5.4 inches from the CPU to the side of the case. My plan is to OC my FX8320 to around 4.3 GHz. I need one thats like a mini version of the Hyper 212 EVO

About 2/3rd down the page is a quote from a company rep. Seems the new style h60 is compatible with Corsair link, but I haven't seen it say anywhere that it comes with. Although majority of sites I've seen are still selling off the older, black fan units, not the newer sp120L white fans. It's a new style CoolIT pump too. Can't tell if it's led lit or not.
 


Interesting. That's an old 2012 article and the reviewer is based in the Netherlands. So I'm thinking it is a Euro-specific package. I just bought the latest H60 Newegg sells about 2 weeks ago and it didn't come with Corsair link. The description of the H60 in the article is identical to both of mine, minus the Corsair Link.

 
Yeah, it was written Dec '12 about the new version. Seems its CL compatible, no led, new pump, new fan, new pipes, old name.

And yet if you follow even some part picker links, you get old stock, eBay is mostly old stock, Corsair should have put an 'i' on the model, same as the h100/100i, I think they are just trying to pull a fast one to get rid of what they have.
