Features of the Corsair iCue H150i Elite Capellix AIO:

CORSAIR ML RGB Series PWM 120mm fans included with 8 RGB LEDs per fan (three included)
Extreme CPU Cooling  from 400 to 2,400 RPM (for 120mm)
Zero RPM Mode means the fans to stop entirely at low temperatures, eliminating fan noise.

Highlights for me include:
Excellent quiet but powerful cooling with the ML120 RGB fans
Nifty pump head with individually controllable LEDs
The Commander CORE is fantastic and much easier than multiple cores

Lowlights:
