Full copper
Alphacool says the new NexXxoS radiators are the first to truly deserve the "Full copper" attribute. Not only the fins and channels are made from copper, but all main parts, and the chambers also. According to Alphacool, this brings an improvement in performance where other radiators are left without a chance. It adds that the material already gives an advantage over the competition, with an inner structure that is up to par with it. Separated chambers give the coolant a clear direction, allowing high flow rates which improve the performance of the whole cooling loop. The chambers on the heat exchanger are flat. Thanks to the reduced overall length that brings, they increase mounting flexibility. Alphacool says this radiator can discharge up to 1600 W at an ambient temperature of 30 °C and fans with 4000 rpm.
Ports and mounting
The research and development department at Alphacool focused on versatile and easy mounting as one of the main points. On both inlet and outlet, the chamber offers three possibilities for fitting installation (not on the NexXxoS ST30). Less angled fittings are needed that way, improving flow rates and offering more mounting possibilities. Hence the radiator can even be installed in tight enclosures, where internal installation is otherwise not a possibility. A G1/4 screw plug, found on all UT60 and NexXxoS Monsta radiators, allows easy de-aeration and hassle-free vertical installation of the heat exchanger. The threaded opening it closes can even be used for filling, e.g. in combination with a Fillport.
Fans and screws
Alphacool calls versatility the essence of the new NexXxoS series. The series is designed to be used with 120mm, 140mm or 180mm fans, in different versions, as well as in different thicknesses. Alphacool says the choice of 30mm, 45mm and 60mm offers "the perfect radiator for every purpose". Mounting and installation of fans and radiator grills is meant to be just as easy and versatile with these radiators. Their M3 threads are standard in the radiator sector, and M3 screws are available in all lengths at an affordable price. The dreaded insertion of a screw too far into the radiator does not result in expensive damage here. Unlike other radiators, the series is equipped with an internal protective ledge, which stops the screw before it damages the fins.
Fin spacing
Fin spacing is always an important factor in radiator design, and this radiator has 10 fins per inch. Alphacool says the new series has a fin design which allows it to perform extremely well even with slow-spinning and medium-speed fans. That is pleasant thanks to the fact that it avoids unnecessary noise. It also means the choice of fans that can be used with these radiators is not restricted.
The NexXxoS range
Alphacool introduces the new NexXxoS radiators as "a name that stands for experience and quality" that has come to bring a fresh breeze to the radiator market. Its starting point: every user of a water cooling system needs a radiator, and everyone has different requirements toward the heat exchanger. Of course, Alphacool goes on, the customer always demands the best in its class. It says these radiators have come to compete with and to beat the best in their class, and to be the best radiator in all sizes. In its words there are no more endless choices without a clear class leader, only "the one tool for all your cooling needs". Alphacool also states that it has been the company to introduce new developments and improvements in the radiator and water cooling sector generally many times over the last years. Following this tradition, it presents these radiators as the result of experience and powerful performance meeting future-oriented design and well-thought through solutions.
What the loop needs
The radiator has six G1/4 connections, three on the inlet and three on the outlet. A loop uses two of them, so it takes two fittings. The box holds five plugs for the openings the loop leaves unused. The radiator takes three 120 mm fans, and the twelve M3 x 30mm and twelve M3 x 35mm mounting screws in the box go into its M3 fan threads.
The next thickness down in this fan size is the NexXxoS XT45 Full Copper 360mm Radiator, and the next one up is the NexXxoS Monsta 360mm Radiator.

Notes
- Please use the radiator only in conjunction with clear, transparent water cooling fluids. Alphacool warns that 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.
