I upgrade my Cooler to Coolit Domino ALC.
Here is my stats on Digitalstorm 950i
Chassis Model: Digital Storm 950Si
Exterior Finish: - Standard Factory Finish Interior Finish: - Standard Factory Finish Trim Accents: - Standard Factory Finish Processor: Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition 965 3.2GHz (Quad Core) (Extreme Performance) Motherboard: ASUS P6T Deluxe (Intel X58 Chipset) (Supports Dual SLI or CrossFire) System Memory: 12 GB DDR3 1333MHz OCZ Power Supply: 1200W Thermaltake (Triple and Quad SLI Compatible) (Toughpower Edition) Card Reader: - No Thanks Hard Drive Set 1: Operating System: 1TB Western Digital (7200 RPM) (16MB Cache) (SATA) (Extreme Speed) Set 1 Raid Options: - No Thanks Hard Drive Set 2: Multimedia\Data: - No Thanks Hard Drive Set 3: Backup\Misc.: - No Thanks Optical Drive 1: DVD-ROM/CD-ROM (DVD Reader 16x / CD Reader 40x) Optical Drive 2: Blu-Ray Player & DVD Writer (Play Blu-Ray/HD-DVD Media & Write DVDs) Internet Access: High Speed Network Port (Supports High-Speed Cable / DSL / Network Connections) Video Card(s): 2x SLI Dual (EVGA NVIDIA 285 GTX 1GB) (Includes PhysX Technology) Add-on Card: - No Thanks Sound Card: Creative Labs X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion (PCI-Express Slot Based) (Recommended) Extreme Cooling: CoolIT Domino ALC I currently OC the i7 965 Intel at 3.6 Ghz. I like to know if anyone else bought the same cooler, and how high they have it OC without any instability issues.
I have manage to get it go as 3.8 Ghz but I don't know if I should OC to 4 GHz.. I keep the CPU voltage around 1.34-1.45 volts..to keep the stability.
I also like your own personal review on the CoolIT Domino ALC.. When I install it it was very easy to setup.

The reviews give the cooler high marks.

most ppl dont get the domino
they either get the best air cooler: V8 or the Frostbite swiftech system keep it at 3.6 you probly wont notice much gain, and the temps may run high |

It will work on LGA775 so it will work on Q9300. Look at the Specs on the Coolit Domino ALC.

I have read about 6 reviews on that cooler...they are all very positive. They say mostly it cools as well as a high end air cooler. So, not as good as say the swiftech systems, but its also about half the price. I wouldn't use it for extreme OC'ing, but its awesome nonetheless. And the cool factor is just damned cool! I am now thinking of getting it myself. I like the idea of a fully self contained/sealed kit. If i can read the display from the window of my stacker 830, im def gonna use it in place of the v8. Have to do a little research it looks like.
Only negative you will read about it, is that its very loud on highest setting, but very quiet on low/medium. Awesome LC for the price IMO.

It has three settings, quiet, performance, and high. Most prefer going on performance. I prefer going on high. It is just as load as my EVGA Nvidia 285 GTX's fan.
