What it is for
The distributor opens up the possibility to integrate Alphacool's active backplates or MCX water coolers, such as the MCX One, into the water circuit easily. This allows e.g. RAM devices and voltage converters on graphics cards to be cooled more efficiently. Alphacool sums it up as flexibility and design with optimal performance, and says the part offers various areas of application.
What the loop needs
Integration into the loop is uncomplicated via the 2 G1/4 connections with internal thread, so the distributor takes two G1/4 fittings. Alphacool's connections from the Eiszapfen series are recommended here, and the thread of a fitting may be 5.5 mm long at most. The two 3 mm nozzles take the hose in the box, which offers sufficient leeway for a flexible installation. More of it is in our 3mm ID x 5mm OD soft tubing section.
