Cooler Express

I'm looking to setup my first phase system and came accross this http://www.frozencpu.com/products/6...775_1366_939_940_AM2_Xeon.html?tl=g41c275s679. Would this be a good unit to start with? Im going to be using it on a Phenom 940.

Yeah I have never heard of the CoolerExpress brand but it looks to be of pretty high quality. The Prometia Mach @ is also a good option(may get slightly colder). I would recoment a builder because you could get one built for cheap but from what ive been reading phase builder reliability has been in a dumps...

If you want to drop the cash on a unit either of these would work well for you. Make sure you read up on phase change and how to properly insulate.

All I've heard are bad things about cooler express...

Any recommendations? The Prometeia chillers I haven't seen for sale any where and Im not sure about going through a builder.

ya that looks like a nice cooler.

I don't blame you, and unfortunately I don't really have any recommendations. The Vapo LS and Mach II were good in their time, but they're discontinued and aren't well suited for today's multicore CPUs anyways.

The demand for phase change coolers is so small that no one is supplying any these days.

Probably your best bet is to find a used custom unit somewhere.
