That northQ is the exact same unit I have just with their name on it. The only "new" thing I would expect to see in a revision is the improved copper plate that the H50 has. The original LCLC is not the best cold plate but it will do. The real limitation is the narrow tubes and pump. I only bought the unit as a substitute for a big air cooler, I knew it would not match a good water loop. The 240mm LCLC was up on ncix for a while, I got mine last summer.
If they did a model with the fatter rad, thicker tubes, and the 240mm size, I would be excited. Other than that nothing out currently is impressing me in the AIO space. The only reason I really put any confidence in the 240mm LCLC I have now is because it was the exact same model used in the XPS 700 and the HP BlackBird 002 - both of which managed to tame a pretty well overclocked 65nm kentsfield extreme quad core (not a cool chip at all haha). Those were really the only way to get reviews on the unit as well since they are pretty much an OEM company.
A quick search now shows only ebay for the 240mm, shame I think it was a good value unit with obvious advantages over the H50
