The Alphacool XPX Eisblock is the newest generation in the CPU water cooling field and offers not only outstanding cooling performance but also outstanding visual effects. One of its unique features is that the inner channels are also polished, making the cooler absolutely clear. Also available is a satin version with a milky finish that, with the right lighting, can give your system a whole new look.
Highlights
The Alphacool Eisblock XPX is part of the newest generation of coolers from Alphacool. It is the first water cooler worldwide to be built partially with transparent nylon. Compared to conventional Plexiglas, transparent nylon is much more resistant to tension strain and tearing, and of course to high temperature differences. This minimizes the risk of cracks in the surface. In terms of appearance, Alphacool is setting a new standard and polishing not just the surface of the cooler, but also the insides of the water-bearing channels. This means the cooler is clear as glass.
The satin version’s milky surface creates a whole new look when paired with the right lighting. It looks especially good with vivid colours.
Of course, just like with a normal XPX Eisblock, the frame can be replaced with one in a different colour. This makes it easy to customize the cooler and completely adjust it to fit your individual style. Of course, even with all this attention to the cooler’s outstanding appearance, its cooling performance hasn’t fallen to the wayside. Alphacool’s patented ramp technology for improved performance, developed in-house, is also in use in the Eisblock XPX coolers. This technology ensures that water is evenly distributed over the entire cooler bottom. With regular nozzle technology, the water mainly flows through the middle while staying nearly still at the edges. The Eisblock XPX’s cooling surface is also enormous at 34 x 32mm, and is ideally suited for CPUs with 8 or more cores.
Technical Details
Scope of Delivery
The next generation - the Alphacool Eisblock Aurora water cooler for Radeon RX 7XXX graphics cards. In order to dissipate the enormous heat of this graphics card generation in the best possible way, numerous optimizations have been made to the water cooler compared to the previous model. The fin structure was adapted and enables a very good water flow while increasing the cooling surface. The modified jet plate with improved inflow engine ensures an optimal distribution of the water on the cooling fins.
Technical Highlights
The fin structure of this Eisblock cooler generation was developed together with AMD board partners. The fin thickness is 0.4 mm, the distance between the cooling fins is 0.4 mm. This ensures a very good water flow while increasing the cooling surface. The jet plate has a revised inlay that spreads the water pressure better over the fins thus optimizing the heat absorption. The adjusted water inflow gives the water a better angle of inflow.
Chrome-plated copper
The cooler is made entirely of chrome-plated copper. A chrome plating is much harder than a nickel plating and therefore less sensitive to acids, scratches and damage. It completely eliminates the risk of chipping nickel plating. Additionally, chrome plating looks much more homogeneous and provides a shine that cannot be achieved by nickel plating. Chrome-plated coolers have previously only been used in the industrial sector in areas where extreme influences act on the coolers.
Design
The Aurora design of the Radeon RX 7XXX Eisblock generation is visually calmer and simpler. Only one O-ring runs around the entire cooler. The design around the cooling fins and jetplate makes for a cleaner look. The illumination of the digitally addressable RGB LEDs is even better distributed throughout the cooler as a result of the chrome plating. The terminal's design is in line with the classic Aurora design.
Thermal paste & thermal pads
The included thermal compound is Alphacool's Subzero. With a thermal conductivity of 16 W/mK, it is one of the highest performing thermal pastes on the market. The electrically non-conductive thermal compund is particularly well suited for high contact pressures, but can still be processed perfectly due to its viscosity of 850.000 TF. Alphacool Soft Pads with 1mm thickness are used on the voltage converter and the graphics memory. The thermal conductivity of the pads is 7 W/mK. The pads for the back of the PCB are 3mm thick and have a thermal conductivity of 3 W/mK.

Note on application
Please use only in conjunction with clear transparent water cooling fluids. The particles and additives in Pastel liquids can clog and permanently damage water cooling products such as radiators, pumps, coolers and hoses. This can result in voiding the manufacturer's warranty as well.
