With the Core Storm water cooling set, Alphacool provides all the components that are needed to get started in the world of water cooling. The set is aimed not only at beginners, but also at enthusiasts. The selected components are optimally matched to each other and come from Alphacool's DIY program. When it comes to the choice of materials, we continue to rely uncompromisingly on copper or brass for all metals in order to be able to guarantee performance-oriented CPU cooling. Thanks to the included quick-release fastener, other components such as radiators or GPU coolers can be integrated afterwards without having to drain or convert the water circuit.

Eisblock XPX Aurora CPU cooler
Alphacool's Eisblock XPX Aurora CPU water cooler offers the highest performance and convinces with its excellent quality. The patented ramp system ensures optimal water flow within the cooler as the water is pressed evenly through the nozzle plate. 81 cooling fins are distributed on the CPU cooler floor, occupying an area of ​​34 x 32mm and thus do justice to the ever-growing CPU DIEs. The Aurora design in combination with the 15 addressable digital aRGB LEDs offers many options for outstanding lighting of the CPU water cooler. The included mounting material makes the CPU cooler compatible with the common mainstream sockets from AMD and Intel.

Core 100 Aurora Reservoir & VPP Apex Pump
The Core reservoir combines performance with design. The reservoir tube is made of acrylic, the D5/VPP pump top and lid are made of acetal. The combination of these two materials gives the reservoir a discreet appearance. The wow effect is provided by 12 digitally addressable RGB LEDs in the top of the pump and the light tower water effect inside the acrylic tube. The Apex VPP is a powerful pump that is compatible with the most common D5/VPP tops and reservoirs. The speed of the pump can be read out via the 4-pin fan connection and controlled via a PWM signal. The Apex VPP is powered via the SATA connection.

NexXxoS XT45 Full Copper 240mm Radiator V.2
All water-carrying parts and the cooling fins are made of pure copper. The NexXxoS XT45 thus achieves the highest thermal conductivity of all radiators on the market and can easily dissipate extremely high levels of waste heat. In the area of ​​the antechambers, the radiator has two IN or OUT connections with G1/4" threads. On the opposite side there is a fill or vent port that can be used to fill and drain the water circuit.

Rise Aurora 120mm fan
The fan can be controlled from 0 to 2500 rpm via the 4-pin PWM connection. At 800 rpm, the fan is almost silent, but still offers a good air flow (118.9 m³/h) paired with a high static pressure (3.17mm/H2O). In addition to a wide control range, the Rise fan also offers outstanding digital aRGB lighting. 20 digitally addressable 5V RGB LEDs are installed in the frame and hub, which illuminate the entire fan.

AlphaTube HF 13/10mm hose & HF G1/4" quick connect coupling
The clear 13/10mm hose made of PVC offers a comfortable handling when laying and connecting water cooling components. It has good laying and buckling behavior and allows uncomplicated bridging of tight bending radii. The HF quick-release coupling included in the scope of delivery enables the easy integration of further components at a later point in time without having to drain or convert the water circuit.

Icicle 13/10mm G1/4" connections
All the requirements that are placed on a connection are met here: high flow, shape, processing and coloring. The coating is firmly connected to the substrate using special manufacturing processes. This increases the longevity of the color and prevents the coating from flaking off.

Thermal Compound &
Coolant The included thermal compound is Alphacool's Subzero with a thermal conductivity of 16 W/mk. The electrically non-conductive Thermal Grease is particularly well suited for high contact pressures, but can still be processed perfectly thanks to its viscosity of 850,000 TF. Tec Protect 2 Clear in the 1 liter bottle is used as coolant. With Tec Protect 2 Clear you get a ready-to-use mixture that already contains all the necessary additives and can be used directly from the bottle.

aRGB controller, cables, tools & accessories
All cables (aRGB, PWM) and controllers required for the use and control of the pump, fan and aRGB lighting are included in the scope of delivery. The accessory package also includes important tools such as hose cutters, a spray bottle and an ATX 24-pin jumper. This means that you can start building the custom loop "out-of-the-box" immediately.
