Default CoolIT Domino A.L.C CPU Cooler

My Arctic Cooler 7 isn't working like it use to so I'm thinking about getting the Domino. I've always wanted to get into watercooling, but I never wanted to deal with the leak testing and all that. Also the reviews say this cools around the same as top tier air coolers. So any reasons why should or shouldn't I get this?

+rep for suggestions

Here is an excellent review of it

I don't normally come anywhere near suggesting kits, however, this one, at this price ~$80, seems like a good deal.

It easily competes with a Noctua, Vendetta, and Xigmatek.

q6600 testing


Also it comes with all your thermostats, temperature readouts, and fan speed controllers using a small 8bit 20MHz microprocessor, this unit is fairly advanced.

I would go for it, it seems tailored to what you are looking for. Its not much more than what I payed for my Noctua ($60); and to be honest, after seeing these reviews, had I known about it, I probably would have given it a try over my Noctua.

Here is the 8bit uController it uses

This has a cooler I've been lookin' at for awhile, I've read nothing but good reviews. Check out the reviews posted on YouTube too for a good walkthrough and video benchmarks. Only thing I don't have a window on the side of my case, so I wouldn't be able to access to LCD or controls.

Antec 900/1200, here I come?

I love mine. The CoolIT Domino A.L.C. is a great cooler. Were this thing stands out is when its OC'd. On my AMD II 940 while OC'd around 4ghz. The CoolIT Domino A.L.C. wipes the floor with my TRUE. Even then I had to by after market fans to get TRUE to almost preform as good as my CoolIT Domino A.L.C.. I had to crank the fans all the way up on the TRUE and it still does not beat my CoolIT Domino A.L.C. on its lowest setting. Keep in mind this is while OC'd. The CoolIT Domino A.L.C. is quieter and colder while OC'd than my TRUE. On top of that I didn't have to buy after market fans to make it compete. Its not big deal though my TRUE is now cooling my HTPC.

CoolIT Domino A.L.C. Stock Fan:

Fan Speed/Settings - 1030-2900 RPM - Max dBA
Quiet Setting - 1100-2500 RPM - 19.2dBA
Performance Setting - 1100-2500 RPM - 26.2dBA
Full Performance Setting - 2900 RPM 39.4dBA

Ultra Kaze 2000:

Fan Speed - 1000-3000 RPM
1000 RPM - 19.81dBA
2000 RPM - 32.91dBA
3000 RPM - 45.90dBA
