Warranty

The design of the Domino Advanced Liquid Cooling systems makes for usage that matches your needs. The three modes, quiet, performance and full can be switched on the fly via the press of a button, ideal for when you just want a quiet running computer whilst listening to music or watching a film, or full speed whilst gaming at full blast. Performance mode is the ideal blend of the two modes but thanks to the intelligent temperature monitoring, the cooling adjusts to meet your cooling needs.

Dimension wise, this will fit in any case with 120mm fan mounting holes at the back ensuring that you can still use all your memory sticks and adequate space for airflow in the case. The backwards facing fan also means all the heat is extracted out of the case. The system is composed of a radiator fitted with a 120mm fan, a pump and a CPU Fluid Heat Exchanger for maximum heat dissipation. The coolant is pre-applied to make sure the user experiences minimal problem when installing, making this very user friendly. CoolIT's confidence in this product is certainly reflected in the 2 years Manufacturer warranty!

To top it off, CoolIT ensures maximum compatibility with all high end systems today with their Intel and AMD backplates.
