ECO is Easiest to Install
"Now as I said I recently looked at the Corsair H50 and so comparisons of the two units are inevitable. In all the testing the H50 and the ECO put up very similar cooling numbers. Considering how close the two designs are this was to be expected. The difference for me was the mounting system. The ECO makes use of the existing back plate on AMD systems and uses a custom backplate for Intel. While the Corsair was a two step process to install the ECO was much simpler with 4 thumb screws being all that is needed to mount the cooler.
Easy installation, easier to work around the system with than tower air coolers, great cooling and quiet operation, I will not use anything except self contained liquid systems in my personal systems any more. From a DIYer perspective I must say I have to wonder why bother with air coolers any more. These coolers are easy to use, come warranted against leaks and are more flexible for working in the PC."
