More Performance!

During the development of the EIsblock Aurora GPX graphic card GPU block, we wanted to further in-

crease the performance. The first step was to move the cooler closer to the individual components by
reducing the thermal pads to a thickness of 1 mm. Next, we reduced the thickness of the nickel-plated
copper block. Instead of 7 mm, it is now only 5.5 mm thick. The water flow inside the cooler has also
been optimized. All important components such as the voltage transformers and the memory are now
significantly better and more effectively cooled by the water. All this ensures a significant increase in cool­ing performance.

New Design!

The Eisblock Aurora GPX cooler has been designed so that lighting is more important than the previous
models. The addressable digital RGB LEDs are embedded directly into the cooling block and run along
the entire cooling block. The effect is an illumination of the entire cooling block. No corner or edge re-

mains unlit by the aRGB LEDs. The new design is more angular with all edges bevelled. This promotes

better light diffusion in the water cooler due to the reflections on these bevels. In addition, they create
various contours, which give the Aurora GPX Eisblock cooler its very own unique identity.

Copper or Aluminium?

Of course, Alphacool only uses copper for its water coolers. With the Aurora GPX Eisblock, the copper
is nickel-plated. Compared to its predecessor models, Alphacool has improved the nickel plating even fur­ther, which has considerably increased the acid resistance. This means that the nickel should resist flaking.
Why does Alphacool rely on copper instead of aluminium? Simply, copper has almost twice the thermal
conductivity of aluminium and is therefore clearly the better material for water cooling.

Is There Anything Else New?

The Eisblock Aurora GPX also relies on the new patented stop fittings, which sit flush with the surface of
the terminal. The Alphacool logo now sits in the corner on the top and is also fully illuminated. On the
front of the terminal you can see the corresponding names of the compatible graphic card types. Of
course, these are also fully illuminated by the digital LEDs. IN and OUT are now marked by small trian-

gles. They are easily recognizable and fit perfectly into the entire aesthetics of the graphic card water

cooler.

The Alphacool Aurora GPX Plexi is a complete redevelopment of the previous Alphacool graphics card
water coolers. No technical compromises were made, but the entire technical know-how flowed into the
development and implementation.
