patented ramp design as well as boasting excellent quality. The new Aurora design in combination with

water block.

Performance in abundance!

Alphacool already developed and patented new flow technology for the first Alphacool Eisblock XPX se­ries. The so-called "ramp system" ensures an even flow of water inside the cooler and sits in front of the
diffuser plate. This ensures that the water is pressed evenly through the diffuser plate, which in turn push­es the water evenly over the cooling base. The cooling channels on the CPU cooler base has also been
enlarged to a proud 34 x 32 mm to accommodate the ever-growing CPU DIEs. This is especially true for
multi-core processors with 4, 6, 8 or even 12 and more CPU cores. So that the heat from the CPU can
be transferred to the water as quickly as possible. 81 cooling fins can be found on the cooling plate to en­sure maximum heat diffusion. The fin structure has been reduced to just 0.2 mm in order to create the

largest possible surface area in the smallest possible space.

And the lighting?

All new Eisblock XPX Aurora Plexi CPU waterblocks come with addressable digital RGB lighting. The
aRGB LEDs are integrated directly into the CPU water cooler and run once around the entire cooling
block. With up to 15 digital RGB LEDs the entire CPU block is evenly and intensively lit. Of course, the
brightness can be controlled by an appropriate controller. And as with all aRGB LED products all known

effects can be created. From simple colour changes to wave effects and rainbow lighting, everything is
possible. Of course, the Alphacool Eisblock Aurora coolers can also be connected and controlled via

mainboards using the standard 3-pin 5V connector. The cable also has an integrated Y-adapter. This

makes it easy to connect further Alphacool Aurora products in series without having to order separate Y­adapters. Extension cables may be needed if you want to connect the products in series, depending on the
size of the case.

Is installation difficult?

Mounting the Eisblock XPX Aurora Plexi cooler is simple. The backplate is simply attached to the main­board from behind. The mounting frame for the AMD or Intel socket is clamped to the cooler and the
corresponding mounting screws are pre-attached to this frame. Next, you simply apply thermal paste and
you attach the cooler using the screws.

Please note: Remove the protective foil on the cooler base before use!

Unique Aurora Design

The Alphacool Eisblock Aurora Plexi differs only slightly from its predecessor Alphacool Eisblock XPX.
The lower part of the Eisblock Aurora Plexi is not made of acrylic, but of transparent nylon. This means it
is almost impossible that the holder or the high temperature fluctuations during operation will cause the
plexi to crack or fracture. The upper part of the cooler houses the integrated digital addressable RGB
LEDs. A separate RGB frame like the predecessor Eisblock XPX is no longer necessary. Like all new Au­rora products, the Alphacool Eisblock Aurora Plexi also has a black frame, embedded with the Alphacool
logo on the top. The Alphacool logo remains very discreet and unobtrusive.
