The Digital Controller

The highlight from Domino ALC is its embedded digital controller featuring an LCD display and a configuration button. Thru this display you can monitor the coolant temperature, the speed of the radiator fan and the speed of the water pump. Thru the configuration button you can set the system to work under three different modes: “quiet,” “performance” and “full,” where you can choose the balance between performance and noise level that is more adequate for you. The controller also beeps if something is wrong with the system.

With such low price Domino ALC competes with entry-level water cooling systems like Cooler Master Aquagate Mini. The biggest advantage of Domino ALC is the presence of a digital controller with an LCD display, feature not present on any competing product. Another difference between CoolIT Domino ALC and Cooler Master Aquagate Mini is the location of the water pump: on Cooler Master’s product, this piece is located on top of the CPU cooler, while on CoolIT’s product the pump is fastened to the radiator.
