  • Very effective cooler, Easiest liquid cooler to install on the current market, LCD Readout is handy (for windowed cases), All but silent in "quiet" mode, Comes ready to mount with most current CPU sockets, Opens the door for serious overclocking, Under
  • Comes right up to the side of the case; interferes with cases with side fans, More expensive than most air coolers
  • Put simply, wed pay twice the price for a liquid cooling system this handy, simple to install, and effective. The Domino A. L. C. is one of CoolIT Systems best efforts. Compared to a stock fan, it does wonders for allowing serious overclocking of a ...

  • We found the installation of the Domino A.L.C. very simple and well documented in the manual. The Quiet and Performance settings provide exceptional cooling at very low noise levels. On the High setting the core and coolant temps change very little ev...

  • Build Quality, Performance, Price, Almost 8 Years Of Continuous Usage
  • Availability Inside The EU
  • Although the Domino A.L.C did not manage to outperform all of the Air Cooling solutions in the tests it is clear that CoolIT Systems spent lots of time developing it and by doing so they managed to make a winner since not only this unit is ...

  • Good monitoring of processor temperature, supports overclocking
  • LCD display requires windowed computer case to view; hard to fit into smaller system enclosures

  • The ALC unit with the waterblock. The Domino is a mixed bag it seems. The performance isn’t terrible by any means, but it’s nothing spectacular either. Lets run down the list of reasons people might consider water cooling, and how the Domino fits in t...

  • So how do we sum up the Domino A.L.C? Well over the last few pages we've seen that it's a well built unit that feels solid enough to last. The Domino is a good looking solution too, that might be down to the fact that once installed you can't see much mo...

  • Abstract:  Water cooling at a relatively low price and with an easy path to installation is arguably a Holy Grail of the CPU cooling world, and although CoolIT arent the first company to try to fill this particular market segment theyre just about the best we...

  • Been thinking about water cooling? The CoolIT Domino ALC is an inexpensive way to get some of the benefits of water cooling in a small, well designed package. We found the Domino a joy to work with, easy to install and easier to use. We loved the on t...

  • We've mellowed to the installation being not as bad as we thought and the performance "wins" on the graph but in real life it doesn't because it's just invasively loud. Coupled with no merit in value and a complete lack of customisation, there's no rea...

  • Well, no wonder happened again: the mass production CoolIT Domino A.L.C. liquid-cooling system yields in cooling efficiency and acoustics to the best air cooler. Nevertheless, unlike all previously tested solutions, CoolIT Domino has a serious advantag...
