Alphacool has just announced two new all-in-one coolers utilizing its NexXxos HPE (High-Performance Edition) 360 mm radiators. The new high-performance radiator features an increase in the number water channels and fin density to improve the overall performance of the original NexXxos radiators. Both the Eisbaer Aurora HPE Edition 360 and Eisbaer LT360 Aurora HPE feature the same radiator, fans, and Alphacool’s patented quick disconnects. Currently available through the Alphacool website, pricing starts at $174.20. For compatibility and complete specifications, please read Alphacool’s press release below.
All New Alphacool Eisbaer Aurora HPE and Eisbaer LT360 Aurora HPE NexXxos High Performance Edition AIO Coolers
Alphacool’s CPU All-in-One solutions Eisbaer Aurora and Eisbaer LT Aurora are now available with the new NexXxoS HPE (High Performance Edition) 360mm radiator.
What does HPE mean? The NexXxos HPE-30 radiator uses the same materials as the previous NexXxos models, but technically goes a step further. Due to the condensed internal construction, the number of water channels and copper fins could be increased. This means that a larger volume of water is in direct contact with the cooling fins and the heat transfer is enormously improved. Due to the higher number of fin rows and their shortening, the cooling surface is also used much more efficiently. Comparison tests (test setup: Asus Primex299/Intel i9 10900x with 350W waste heat) with the conventional NexXxos radiator have shown that a significant performance increase of 4.5K is possible when using the HPE radiator. At higher ambient temperatures and higher fan speeds, the performance gap to the normal NexXxoS radiators even increases progressively and reaches a possible performance increase of up to 6K. There has never been such a leap in performance in the past!
As usual, all components used come from Alphacool’s classic DIY water cooling range and are also used for the most part in the enterprise products for servers. A digitally addressable RGB lighting on the cooler and on the Rise Aurora fans provides for the incomparable look. The Eisbaer LT360 Aurora HPE and Eisbaer Aurora HPE are powerful all-in-one water cooling systems that are as easy to install as an AIO, but offer the performance of a pre-assembled and pre-filled custom loop. Smart and efficient!

Under the microscope today is the Spire TherMax Eclipse II, which is an HDT type heatsink sporting five heatpipes and two 120 X 25 mm fans. We will be seeing if this a high performance cooler or just impersonates one.
Scythe has been around since 2002 manufacturing cooling parts such as heatsinks, fans, and accessories. So, they should be a familiar name to anyone that’s been building PCs in the last decade and a half. Today, we have Scythe’s FUMA Rev. B heatsink, a relatively small dual tower cooler that strives to increase compatibility over the larger, more traditional dual tower offering out there. The major change in this new revision of Scythe’s FUMA heatsink is that it now supports current CPU sockets from both Intel and AMD.
Alphacool announced the Eisblock Aurora Acryl GPX-N RTX 3070 Founders Edition GPU water block today. As with all of the Eisblock Aurora series, this is a nickel-plated full cover block that is said to produce exceptional cooling performance. A backplate is included to add stability and improve the overall aesthetics.
