CoolIT ECO A.L.C. water cooling system review @ Elite Bastards

[news 28]

 

Hi everyone,

 

Over the past year, the market for easy to install yet high performance water cooling kits for CPUs has grown markedly, largely thanks to the success in the marketplace of CoolIT's Domino unit which blazed trails in terms of both pricing and ease of use. Today, we take a look at what could well be considered CoolIT's successor to the Domino, the ECO A.L.C., which boasts an even lower price and an easier installation process, while promising similar cooling performance and noise levels. Can it deliver on those promises however? We find out.

 

 

CoolIT ECO A.L.C. water cooling system review

 

"As per the Domino, CoolIT's ECO ships with its own 120mm fan firmly attached to the cooler's radiator. Whereas fan speed on the Domino was controlled by a button on the unit itself which allowed you to cycle through three performance profiles, this time around the 120mm fan is controlled via a four-pin PWM header on the motherboard itself, allowing the ECO to adjust fan speed dependant upon CPU temperature up to a maximum of 1800 RPM. We're a big fan (with every pun intended) or PWM-controlled fans here, so in our book this is a definite improvement over the manual controls offered by the Domino, although of course your mileage may vary."
