I am the First International and the First in Australia to recieve these CoolIT VANTAGE ALC units.

So Stay Tuned for some Testing and a Review of the CoolIT VANTAGE ALC
Update Sun 15th August 2010
Installing the CoolIT VANTAGE ALC
in Jolly's CM-690 Case - Acentos de Cobre
This is what Jolly's CM-690 Case - Acentos de Cobre with the current Modded Scythe Ninja current configuration.
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r169/Jolly-Swagman/PC%20Stuff/CM-690%20Revamp%202010/GPUs-HSF-customcover.jpg
First up we remove the Scythe Ninja
As seen in the previous Update the CoolIT VANTAGE ALC comes with one 120mm x 25mm PWM Fan and on the other side of Rad is a 120mm x 20mm Shroud.
I am going to be making another Fan Shroud from and old coolermaster fan and adding second ThermalTake 120mm x 25mm Blue LED SmartFan2 to the Rad Shroud.
So the configuration will be Push Pull,,, ( <<<< Airflow) Drawing cool air from front of case
<<<< 120mm PWM Fan | Mount Plate |120mmx20mm Shroud |CoolIT RAD |120mmx 25mm Shroud | TT 120mm x 25mm Fan <<<<
This will be mounted in the 5.25 Drive bay area as see here in pic below
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r169/Jolly-Swagman/PC%20Stuff/CM-690%20Revamp%202010/TT120mmandAntec140mmLEDDrivebayFans.jpg
First we take the CoolIT 120mm PWM fan and grill off the RAD
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r169/Jolly-Swagman/PC%20Stuff/CoolIT%20VANTAGE%20ALC%20Cooler/CollITVANTAGEALC-secondshroud.jpg
Then attached second 120mm x 25 Shroud I made to RAD
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r169/Jolly-Swagman/PC%20Stuff/CoolIT%20VANTAGE%20ALC%20Cooler/CollITVANTAGEALC-secondshroudinstalled.jpg
Next we attach the Intake Fan (TT Blue LED 120mm fan) to the 120mm x 25mm Shroud, then the Mounting plate and CoolIT 120mm PWM fan &Grill to the 120mm x 20mm Shroud
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r169/Jolly-Swagman/PC%20Stuff/CoolIT%20VANTAGE%20ALC%20Cooler/CollITVANTAGEALC-TTBlueSmartFan.jpg
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r169/Jolly-Swagman/PC%20Stuff/CoolIT%20VANTAGE%20ALC%20Cooler/CollITVANTAGEALC-TTBlueSmartFan-2.jpg
Unfortunately dont have a pic of all put together as dint save to Camera Compact Flash, think it was full,
Next we install the Coolit RAD into position in 5.25 Drive bay, then the CoolIT Pump block to Mobo.

MENU's
With the CoolIT VANTAGE ALC there are various Menu's for Set-up from changing the Colour output of the LCD Screen,
from White, Amber, Green, Red, Blue, OFF or have on TEMP where the colour changes according to Temperature rise
and fall, also PULSE where the LCD Pulse's like a heartbeat.
Other setting are for the Fan Speeds - Quite - Performance -Extreme
Also Display orientation, so it doesnt matter which way you have the CoolIT Pump Block mounted you can rotate the LCD
screen to suit Landscape or Portrait and change screen angle to 0, 90, 180, 270 Degrees
VANTAGE ALARMS
When Either Pump, Fan or Temperatures sensor fails or the Coolant temp goes above 99C/210F the VANTAGE will provide
visual and auditory alarms
With my System currently OC'd @ 4.275 Ghz CoreTemp Reading 44C and CollIT VANTAGE ALC coolant Temp @25.6C

and the Dam HDD crapped out on me,

There are some Screen shots in above Post for Core Temps ect, and also since being so cold here lately the Temp,s are even better than above with Q6600 @ Full Load sitting nice @ 30C -35C across all 4 cores
So on to Dismantling Jolly's Tech Bench to make ready fro CoolIT VANTAGE ALC Installation

With Mobo off and Vendetta 2 Removed, just leaving the HR-05 NB HSF, it was now onto making another Fan Shroud for the Coolit VANTAGE ALC
Now the last one was simple , but this one needed some modding to be done to it, as where the screw holes go it was the solid closed type,
As seen in pice below, with one corner done
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r169/Jolly-Swagman/PC%20Stuff/CoolIT%20VANTAGE%20ALC%20Cooler/Converting120mmFantoShroud.jpg

Very Happy with the Results of Temps on Par with the Vendetta 2 HSF,
The only Quibble I have is that it took some time for the Dam Beeping Alarm on the CoolIT VANTAGE ALC to stop as when the Coolant is below 19C it beeps,
So when the system was Idle Coolant Temp was @ 15C then after a while Folding @ 100% Coolant slowly raised to above 21.5C Beeping Alarm stopped
Q6600 Cores Temps were around 25C-29C but have since settled to 22C-25C across the Cores
Ambient Temps when installing were 6C-8C that Night!
So overall the Set-up Configuration I have is Pretty good and fairly Quiet too!
Very Impressed!

Very Happy with the Results of Temps on Par with the Vendetta 2 HSF,
The only Quibble I have is that it took some time for the Dam Beeping Alarm on the CoolIT VANTAGE ALC to stop as when the Coolant is below 19C it beeps,
So when the system was Idle Coolant Temp was @ 15C then after a while Folding @ 100% Coolant slowly raised to above 21.5C Beeping Alarm stopped
Q6600 Cores Temps were around 25C-29C but have since settled to 22C-25C across the Cores
Ambient Temps when installing were 6C-8C that Night!
So overall the Set-up Configuration I have is Pretty good and fairly Quiet too!
Very Impressed!
