Hydro H60 High Performance
Package of Hydro H60 High Performance has
the same design and content but it is silver:

Technical specifications and list of accessories
written on many languages can see on the box. Performance of cooler and level
of making noise are compared to standard cooler of Intel.
However, accessories are different. We can
see that kind of latches is different and there is variety of screws and
spacers:

As its cousin, Corsair Hydro H60 High
Performance is made in China, and guaranteed for 5 years. It is more expensive
with the price of $79.95.
This cooling system is the same as its
predecessor: a pump with a lock, two tubes and radiator.

However, we can notice that the tubes are
bigger. They have diameter of 14 mm instead of 11 mm in order to reduce protest
of cool fluid and decrease volatilization. Length of tube remains at 310 mm.
Tube
has diameter of 14 mm
Aluminum radiator almost has the same size
to previous cooler, except wider tubes. Furthermore, the number of radiating
tubes increases from 11 to 12 in inside radiator when distance among them is
not clearly.

The body of radiator has the same depth as Hydro
H55 Quiet – 17 mm.
Label on the radiator do not also provide
any helpful information.
Corsair Hydro H60 High Performance has
water pump/ block different from other coolers in this test. It does not have
round edges but square ones with size of 63x63x32 mm:
Water
pump and lock
Unfortunately, this is the only difference
that we can show. Little technical information indicates that not only pump but
also lock are not distinctive about outside design of Corsair Hydro H55 Quiet.
Power consumption of pump is 1.96 according to our measuring. This is the most
saving pump in this test.
It has the same thermal surface on the
bottom of water block but it is square instead of round:

Therefore, water block can connect to whole
surface of radiator of CPU, and the thermal grease is pretty perfect:

Hydro High Performance also has another
fan. It comes with a Corsair SP120 adjusting high quality PWM.

Nonetheless, thin radiator does not need a
high-pressure fan with a large dead area that does not deserve with engine.
That is the reason why we guess Corsair’s AF120 will be better choice with
strong airflow and smaller engine (means dead area is smaller). Such two fans
will be perfect. Unfortunately, producers prefer another fan which is
typification with maximum speed of 2,000 RPM, noise in 30.9 dBA, and airflow 54
CFM.
Hydro H60 High Performance is installed in
the same way as Corsair Hydro H55 Quiet. If you had a motherboard for Intel
CPU, put its legs into frame-holes of source.

After that, structure that using magnet is
installed on water block and used to immobile it on motherboard and CPU.

In fact, installing Hydro H60 High
Performance is even simpler and easier than installing Hydro H55 Quiet.

Thermaltake Water 2.0 Performer (CLW0215)
Products of Thermaltake can be easily
distinguished by special package with black and red. New Water 2.0 Performer is
not exception:

Accessories are similar to Corsairs except

Made in China, cooler goes with recommended
price of $69.99. Guaranteed within 3 years.
Look in the change of background 550 LC, we
do not see any specific new thing, except label on plastic top of water block:

We have the same size of radiator 151x120x27
mm, two tubes 300mm long (diameter 11 mm), and a pumping/ locking part Ø72х28mm.

Aluminum radiator includes 11 thermal

However, power index that we can read from
label of radiator is 3.1 W instead of 3.9 W.
We do not know the reason for this
difference, but according to our measurement, pump of Thermaltake Water 2.0
Performer creates the most power with 3.34 W although it is not necessary to
have the highest performance.

The simple difference between Water 2.0
Performance and other variations of Asetek 550LC is fan. Thermaltake version
has two fans.

There are some Power Logic PLA12025S12HH-LV
fans that can also see in Bigwater A80 and Frio Advanced. Fan speed is
adjustment PWM in range of 1,200 to 2,000 RPM. The maximum airflow is set in
93.4 CFM for each fan while noise is not higher than 27.4 dBA.
Maximum power consuming of fan is up to 6 W
in 0.5 amperes, twice as much as that of pump and only a quarter more than that
of one Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition, for example.
Here is a adjusting circle that we has
indicated in description of Corsair Hydro H55 Quiet:

It is inserted from under water block and
helps to adjust remaining dish. That makes it is even easier to install water
block on CPU.
Installation process is similar to Hydro
H55 Quiet, for instance, except the second fan:
