well i might get this or the coolermaster v10, which one do you think is better, i think this is alot cheaper and easier to fit but ive herd some bad reviews any thoughts
@ImmortalUniverse I'm using the same barbs, clips, tubing from a build I did 3 years ago. Not a single leak yet. The clips from bitspower really are top notch pieces. Oxidation was a problem in older setups, but not these days since we don't use mixed metals. Refills are part of it, but it's not as bad as you would think. I do a thorough drain/cleaning every 6 months, but they can go a yr without it. SLI are so hot that w/c is almost a necessity from what I've seen. v3000f is a great cooler
i dont think you can use this watercooler with a HAF 932 because of where the fans and the window are on the case. id say go for the zalman reserator xt but i think you may have to purchase a new waterblock to go with it, but they are only like £30.
@ImmortalUniverse The problem is its only 2 physical and 2 virtual cores vs the 4 and 4 of I7s. Those 4 extra cores put out a ton more heat. The 860, my current processor, runs just as much Vcore as you do. I'm currently at 1.3475 vcore @ 3.6 ghz. Wont stabilize lower than that. I3s aren't running any higher than that unless you are getting 4ghz+ on the oc. When I tried the H50 on it, it kept that meager OC around 61c in OCCT, 64c after 24hr p95, and 69c on Intel Burn Test. Panaflow fans on it.
@101Hoody Well, I purchased this exact item and have not had problems for over 2 years now. I decided to upgrade and was able to use the radiator and Water Block. Great item for the price!
rodney, where do you reccomend I shop for coolers like this? I live in canada, like yourself, and newegg is really selfish towards canadians when it comes to water cooling lol.
Decisions..decisions... Ok, I'm currently using Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme with two ultra kaze 133cfm 120mm fans in a push/pull configuration. My AMD Phenom II 940 is overclocked to 3.8Ghz with an oc idle of 32C and a full load temp of 45C running OCCT or Prime95. Would going over to the Coolit Domino give me lower temps across the board compared to my current temps?
Not the fan but the pump that circulates the coolant. If the pump fails what good is a fan? It will only cool whats in the radiator and not whats in the cpu block. So is there an alarm for pump failure?
Hi. I was just wondering, at the start of my build i will keep the i7 heat sink installed but, when i upgrade to this one, how would i be able to remove the thermal compound left behind from the i7 heat-sink?
And what are the chances of a pump failing? I cant afford to burn up my prcessor lol i want to make sure its a good system, im am considering watercooling for the first time.
The e8400/ e8600 could be easily cooled by the new Thermalright low profile cooler. You can do so w/o a fan and will cool just fine under load. If you are running a quad core, then it's better to mount the fan.
@jeenormus It will fit ANY case with a 120mm fan hole, but you need to have the clearence for the display section. As long as you don't have a fan in the way of the display, it should fit. Look up the dimensions on the CoolIT site or the review(if present), then measure the case. It's the safest bet, though these are designed for use in mid tower cases as you can fit full custom systems to full tower cases.
according to the reviews on newegg this cooler got a 35% leaking rate and some of the 1 star reviews said they tried it twice. I am not sure if I would trust this. Seems like corsair h50 is probably the best all in one liquid cooling.
I've been using the Domino A.L.C. for a year now and it's working perfectly still, I'm getting lower temps though. and for a Phenom I CPU that's saying a lot. CPU is a Phenom X4 9850 BE 32F (0C)minimum and 115F(46.1C) maximum on Idle. 95F(35C) minimum and 131F(55C) maximum on full bore.
hey i really need a new cpu cooler for my i7 920 I've looked at the Cooler Master V8 and coolit domino alc i have locked at many difrent benchmarks but i am really confused i have a haf 932 case so spase is not the problem
This hardly keeps my Q6600 cool on summer days in california, I've even once hit thermal threshold temp with it on high performance cooling.. This was not the solution for me, very very dependent on the ambient temperature.
YAAA...FINALLY SOMEONE that will test newer technologies using a freakin AMD processor. Man I have NOTHING bad against intel 980x, 960, 920 etc..but I use amd cpu's. So it's more coherent to what I'll guestimate if i plan to buy this item. Thank you Rodney. I would also LOVE to see how that cooling setup works with phenom II 6 core 3.2 gig cpu. cheers
Do your research. Read the nightmare stories about leaking water coolers from others. This puppy is sealed. You do not mess with liquids. After 12 hours I could not find a safer or better alternative for water cooking. Coolit has a WINNER HERE. I am gonna get both newegg and tigerdirect to offer this. Thank you coolit. Keep research up and prices down. You own for now with this ALC cooler.
i own a Q9550 E0 which oced to 3.77ghz and using true with Xigmatek 1500rpm 120mm fan , Tuniq Tx3 compound. Ambient temp is 30c idle at 38c and load at 63c
According to the user's manual it states, 1. Power cycle computer. If failure mode persist after power cycling, contact CoolITSystem for technical assistance. There is also a 2 year warranty for the Coolit Domino ALC. Any defected Cooler would have to be RMA and get it replaced. The number you need to call is 1-866-621-2665 for more detailed answer.
@ImmortalUniverse If you are really interested in Water cooling, I can tell you most of what you need to know. Some barbs are cheap, but there are several that are very good. Bitspower and koolance both have very good barb tips. Combine it with a metal hose clamp and it will never slip off. After doing your initial build you should leak test it for 24 hrs by allowing only the pumps to run and not the cpu. Go to overclockers cm and check out their stickies in the w/c forum for more info.
High Definition, it's the quality of the video... look at the bottom right of the video and just outside the video box and it should say "Watch in HD". It's just a better quality video.
TT uses aluminum AND copper in their watercooling products, which produces corrosion, no matter what mix of anti-corrosives you have in the loop. Anti-corrosives can only delay, not prevent corrosion. Additionally, they're far worse at absorbing heat than water, so your temps will suffer as well. Everything in your loop should be copper, brass, nickle, delrin, acetyl, or acrylic. No Alu. Ever.
My CoolIT product failed within the first year of use in my PC. I couldn't find my org receipt, even though I could provide the serial number off the pump. So they won't even give an exchange. 100 dollars down the drain and a damaged PC. Before you consider the Corsair models, know they are also made by CoolIT. I suggest you go with Noctua instead.
I bet u dont need to refill it.... cuz Its sealed I think...... If it does need refilling ~ 1:24 in this video, see the Circle stopper looking thing around where he is pointing at, Maybe thats the refil;ll if it does need a refill
@ImmortalUniverse You can think its bullshit all you want, its your rig. If you want, I can show you test after test after test where high end air coolers consistently kept a processor cooler than the h50 could. Everywhere from xtremesystems cm, skinneelabs cm, overclockers cm, etc. The I3 is hardly something to to base your opinion on. If you really want to get into water cooling, go give the Swiftech 220 Edge a look. Its a real w/c starters "kit."
@jeenormus AMD have made good on their socket installations, by making the 939/940, AM2, AM2+ and AM3 screw positions identical. Hell, I can even fit a 754 cooler to the AM2 and v-v. So it will fit all current consumer AMD(the opterons are different, but nobody uses them on everyday rigs - too expensive)
Lol, insulting a water cooling system for being to loud. On performance it was probably 15 decibels and 26 on High. That's not that bad, and if you're constantly on high, then you'll probably burn it out. Its 80$ and has some pretty damn good temps.
Mine is still running from 2002 or 2004. Keeps temps in the 30's.
Wow, I haven't seen those results on a single unit LCS before. And it is only $79, amazing! Getting this for sure and doing a review.
jesus u on air cooling ? what board you have ? im not an experienced oc'er. and also what temps are you getting ? in crysis for instance thanks XD
well i might get this or the coolermaster v10, which one do you think is better, i think this is alot cheaper and easier to fit but ive herd some bad reviews any thoughts
I have to say that it takes the adventure out of water cooling :)
I'm buying one of these tomorrow! I can't wait. :D Watercooling for dummies!
@ImmortalUniverse I'm using the same barbs, clips, tubing from a build I did 3 years ago. Not a single leak yet. The clips from bitspower really are top notch pieces.
Oxidation was a problem in older setups, but not these days since we don't use mixed metals.
Refills are part of it, but it's not as bad as you would think. I do a thorough drain/cleaning every 6 months, but they can go a yr without it.
SLI are so hot that w/c is almost a necessity from what I've seen.
v3000f is a great cooler
I got a question do you need to buy extra liquid? Or is their liquid in the resovoir already?
i dont think you can use this watercooler with a HAF 932 because of where the fans and the window are on the case. id say go for the zalman reserator xt but i think you may have to purchase a new waterblock to go with it, but they are only like £30.

@101Hoody Well, I purchased this exact item and have not had problems for over 2 years now. I decided to upgrade and was able to use the radiator and Water Block. Great item for the price!
i have to chose from this cooling kit or the corsair H50, witch do you think is better for overclocking?

Hey I like all your videos but I need one question answered: Will this kit work on my AM3 socket motherboard? Please reply.
Hi.
I was just wondering, at the start of my build i will keep the i7 heat sink installed but, when i upgrade to this one, how would i be able to remove the thermal compound left behind from the i7 heat-sink?
Great vid. just wondering what song you used at 3:42 it was really good.
nice review. kudos
I'm planning to build a rig with the antec 902 case, and the e8600 processor. Will I be able to overclock my processor safely with this cooler?
Oh man, and the lowest cost shipping you can get is 40 Dollars. They are located in Canada so I am getting charged international?
How does this compare to the Coolit Eliminator??? Which one would have lower cpu temps?
And what are the chances of a pump failing? I cant afford to burn up my prcessor lol i want to make sure its a good system, im am considering watercooling for the first time.
hey how mcuh do you mean by cheap? are you talking q6600 range?
if it is fully closed where does the liquid go ?? it just stays inside so you don't need to refill
is its pump stong enough for both cpu and gpu cooling at the same time?
it doesnt hurt tat much. havent you ever put your finger an a fan before?
You have better temps with that than this cooler?
Any other CoolIt product that you recommend? Thanks.
The e8400/ e8600 could be easily cooled by the new Thermalright low profile cooler. You can do so w/o a fan and will cool just fine under load.
If you are running a quad core, then it's better to mount the fan.
would you recommend this, thermaltake, or swift tech??
So mine leaked today and I don't know if it broke the mother board....
It comes pre-applied with thermal paste. Most users use higher grade paste.
what can be better for an i7 920 system?
v8, domino, or h50???? help,uhh and btw do i need to refill the liquid in the domino?
if i have an intel stcok cooler do i have to remove the mother board to install the watercooling?
@jeenormus It will fit ANY case with a 120mm fan hole, but you need to have the clearence for the display section. As long as you don't have a fan in the way of the display, it should fit.

Yes, you got the point. Happy overclocking!
do u need to refil water time to time on liquid cooling stuff?
I've been using the Domino A.L.C. for a year now and it's working perfectly still, I'm getting lower temps though. and for a Phenom I CPU that's saying a lot.
CPU is a Phenom X4 9850 BE
32F (0C)minimum and 115F(46.1C) maximum on Idle.
95F(35C) minimum and 131F(55C) maximum on full bore.
do u know if the pump has a siren too if it fails?
hey i really need a new cpu cooler for my i7 920 I've looked at the Cooler Master V8 and coolit domino alc i have locked at many difrent benchmarks but i am really confused i have a haf 932 case so spase is not the problem
This hardly keeps my Q6600 cool on summer days in california, I've even once hit thermal threshold temp with it on high performance cooling..
This was not the solution for me, very very dependent on the ambient temperature.
so how do you refill it if it runs out of liquid?
can you remove the small lcd display unit? so that it is only the unit with the fan attached???
Epsilon Gaming With modding it might be possible, but not designed to be removed.
its a pretty innovative product and would look hell good in a window case...
does it need thermal paste?
YAAA...FINALLY SOMEONE that will test newer technologies using a freakin AMD processor. Man I have NOTHING bad against intel 980x, 960, 920 etc..but I use amd cpu's. So it's more coherent to what I'll guestimate if i plan to buy this item. Thank you Rodney. I would also LOVE to see how that cooling setup works with phenom II 6 core 3.2 gig cpu. cheers
CoolIT Domino Advanced Liquid Cooling CPU Cooler only costs $79.99USD. Which is excellent considering some air coolers cost that much.
Probbly yes, you'd have to get a new retension plate tho
It looks like the part with the lcd screen would be block some pci slots or at least block a large video card, or am I just seeing things?
It works on an AM3 slot yes.
This seems like something i should get for my HAF, and also to get rid of the motherF**king Push-pins (intel-stock cooler)....
nice review Rodney
this or the coolit eco alc?
Did anyone else expect him to come in so quickly? O.O
I have this cooler and it works great
I see people saying "HD" whats that stand for?
Do your research. Read the nightmare stories about leaking water coolers from others. This puppy is sealed. You do not mess with liquids.
After 12 hours I could not find a safer or better alternative for water cooking.
Coolit has a WINNER HERE. I am gonna get both newegg and tigerdirect to offer this.
Thank you coolit. Keep research up and prices down. You own for now with this ALC cooler.
CoolIT Domino vs Cooler Master V8. No doubt CoolIT Domino is the best decision to make.
i wonder what hes going to do for the #1337th review
i own a Q9550 E0 which oced to 3.77ghz and using true with Xigmatek 1500rpm 120mm fan , Tuniq Tx3 compound. Ambient temp is 30c idle at 38c and load at 63c
what make are the eco and vantage

yea but the cost adds up and eventually it would be better if you would just bye a cpu cooler
no he's using whitescreen. or a piece of white, non-transparent material around the item and some lights behind them.
cardboard will work too :))
Man, this is awesome!
thats how much he loves his job
he goes through pain for us
nice piece of kit

@simysimy9 :) haha Cant wait now I gotta wait for the ALC arriving Wednesday and the Game Thurs... CANT WAIT

I've read the reviews on amazon and a lot of folks are saying this product is defected. It likes to piss on graphic cards.
You mean an alarm if the fan fails to work
no hd?
@101Hoody "Great" would be the "Average" or "Good" rating.
whoa new feature on youtube? bigger video in HD?
RUclips has to process it, please wait.
@101Hoody He gave the H50 a kickass rating...enough said, lol.
how much coolit pay u ? not fair
it will work!
Nice thanks man.
nice product... alarm easy smal lcd screen !!

@101Hoody As a matter of fact he has.I've only seen it once though.
Thanks Rodney, that looks cool! (pun) Lol!

@Hottesthere
No and I wouldn't recommend it to use on a GPU.
@101Hoody i think he only review products that are worth to review and maybe its also the sponsors
OMG IT'A MONSTER!
@101Hoody no cuz he gets it for free therefore he does a "review" on it
arg what did you do to the fan?? VEEERRRMMM
the main unit!
@deagle94
coolitvantage or eco
realease date end of april, I guess
Damn an affordable and idiot proof water cooler? Noice
Did that hurt when you stopped the fan?
Thats very nice. but I still prefer my bigwater 760i
mine blew severe oxidation on the radiator after 3 years, advise everybody to remove these kits
Lol, insulting a water cooling system for being to loud.
On performance it was probably 15 decibels and 26 on High. That's not that bad, and if you're constantly on high, then you'll probably burn it out. Its 80$ and has some pretty damn good temps.
Nice!
ill rather buy coolit domino instead of big typhoon..
