Albert talks to CooliT systems about their 3 new liquid cooling kits. First up is the Vantage ALC which is easily installed and maintained, second you got the Miestro which is a little bit more advanced than the ALC mainly because of all the software setups playing with the hardware, such as timers, scripts and light alerts, and Lastly they talk about the ECO which is their most affordable liquid cooling kit, that beats any heatsink setup on the market.

@osmodivs Well you would NEVER want to install a liquid cooling system in a rig without mounting it. Thats begging for a pink slip. So just leaving the case open and no place to secure the dual (or larger ) rad would be of no help.
As for a kit, I really cant help that much. I only build custom loops and thats where my knowledge is focused. But head on over to the xtremesystems org forums and you can get plenty of help with cooling. ^_^

@kodai666 You can allways leave the casing open so fresh air comes in, i have mine with no side panels, it is a microATX form factor, so the case is kinda small.
But I am planing to buy one of those water cooling devices for my new Core 2 Quad 3.0GHz. Since you sound like an expert, give me some advice here, will ya?
I have an Intel DG35EC MB, Intel Core2 Quad, 8MB ram, QUADROFX580 GPU, 160GB HDD, 1 multicard reader, and a 350 watt PSU, what kind of watercooling kit do you recomend?
Thank you.

that is cool literally

Personally I have no problems with CooliT’s cooling solutions, their products have gained leaps and bounds over the years. I have one of their old cooling solutions out from a 2003(?) CooliT Deuterium cases and modified it to my own puposes (nice to see they’ve moved on from the old 92mm American standard) and get amazing temps.
I would say they are the “goto” people for TEC based cooling products for PCs, for resonable prices. But alas there is nothing that beats building one yourself

EXCELLENT PRODUCT!!!!!

i really don’t agree here.
corsair and coolit are catering for people who want water cooling without the risk or fuss as an alternative to high end air cooling.
i can’t see the average joe cracking open their pre-built HP to fit a thermalright TRUE-120, and these self contained water cooling units are designed as competitors to similar top end air coolers.
few pre built PCs even have 120mm fans, usually 80 or occasionally 92mm max, some dont have any exhaust fans at all other than the PSU fan.

@666necrobutcher666 CooliT is not like EK or Swiftech. They are not designing and selling to a niche market like custom built PC’s. I bet that custom PC’s make up less than 5% of the entire market. All the self contained liquid coolerkits are single rads because of everything I’ve already listed. Asetek , Corsair, CooliT, Sanyo, Thermacore, etc are all focusing on retail systems. The others like Swiftech, Koolance, EK, etc cater to enthusiasts.

i highly doubt the main interest would be for retail PCs. 99% of people who buy a retail PC don’t know or care much about specs, let alone care about overclocking and cooling performance. lets face it, unless you have any intention of OCing anything other than the stock intel fan is a waste of money.
the majority of people even considering a high end air cooler (let alone water cooling) will have built their PCs from scratch and have the intention of overclocking.

@666necrobutcher666 You see, thats the problem. You are looking at the market from the wrong prespective. The overwhelming majority of PC’s are retail and not home or boutique built. Were talking 90+% of the market here. Then consider that 90+% those retail PC’s do not have twin 120mm mounts and the few that do, do not have them spaced in a way that a mass market dual rad would fit. Plus add in my previous comments on the weak pump and costs. Now you can see how cut throat it can be. ^_^

an awful lot of mid towers (even cheap ones) will have a twin 120mm top exhaust, this would be perfect.
obviously the cost would go up, but at least they would cater for the market wanting excellent performance in a hassle and worry free package.
personally, i’d love to build my own system but i can certainly see the appeal in these units (especially if they had dual rads)

@666necrobutcher666
The Omni uses a pump with a higher head pressure, and that means nice chunk of extra cash in making it. Their other lines continue to use an weaker, but cheaper pump for a much more cost effective unit. A dual rad will work but A) the majority of their customers have mid towers that only support a single 120mm rear fan and B) the extra resistance to the weak pump would cause minor gains for a lot of extra cost. Build it yourself if you want better cooling. ^_^

when the fuck will coolit or corsair release a dual rad sealed unit?
OK the domino/H50 is a decent enough low cost solution, but for all of us wanting more performance they’re pretty useless. all they have to do is stick a 240×120 rad on it and they’d be sorted.
their omni GPU cooler is using a dual rad, so why the fuck cant your CPU have the same cooling horsepower? they’re neglecting a good market here.

too much nerd explosions goin on in this vid

should engineer yourself some humor..

People who think TigerDirect does serious reviews on products are idiots in the first place.
July 10th, 2010 at 13:17
He is bitching about how this is going to change the world what an ass
July 10th, 2010 at 14:14
It isn’t overkill. Ever heard of overclocking?
