CoolIT Vantage A.L.C. or Corsair Hydro Series H70

Post by mjc928 »

Hi everyone. I was trying to decide between the two. It seems that the hydro put up better numbers but I wanted other opinions. I'm new to the water cooling scene. I plan to use to cool an amd 1100t. Any suggestions? Thanks

Since i went through 4 - yes FOUR - Domino A.L.C. water coolers that ALL broke within a few months, i would say to go with the H70 just because I think the build quality from CoolIT sucks.

I have no comparison for you from personal experience with the H70, just from a crappy component standpoint ;)

the H50 was.. decent, the H70 is a solid cooler, the only thing is that high end aircoolers run colder at idle than one-piece water setups
