Alphacool EISBAER Ex BLACK LCS review -

Core i7 8700K Baseline test
Time for the essence of this review. The Swiftech H240 X3 should be more than enough for the range of CPUs from the Pentium to the Core i7 Hexa-core, or even the Core i9 octa-core. We ran the test at the default frequencies, but there should still be some room left for OC. First up is the IDLE temperature, measured when the CPU is doing almost nothing, just waiting for any action by the user.
Here, it’s becoming more interesting, and you can some differences. The ambient temperature was about 22 degrees C, which does affect the cooling performance for sure, but all the previous coolers were tested in similar conditions. You don’t want to have the CPU above 75-80 degrees at default frequencies, otherwise, you can assume that the cooler is surely doing a very average/poor job. This AIO cooler offers very good performance. It's a bit more effective than, for example, the NZXT Kraken X62 or the Asus Ryujin series even in 360 mm variant (only by a small margin). On the next page, we’ll show you how silent the cooler is.
Alphacool has unleashed a new Eisbaer, this round with fully addressable aRGB, an improved pump and quite honestly, really terrific looks. Join us un a review of the new Alphacool Eisbaer Aurora 360....

Alphacool HF 38 Niagara Intel Core i7 CPU water block review
There aren't that many companies out there that offer liquid cooling products which you can purchase separately. There's a handful of them. One of them is the German based Alphacool. Recently they introduced a new CPU block called the Alphacool HF 38 Niagara. This new water-block is designed for Socket 1366 processor, aka Nehalem aka Core i7. A high-end liquid cooling CPU block priced fairly. Let's check it out.
Alphacool NexXxoS XP Core i7 water block review
In this article we test the Alphacool NexXxoS XP HIGHFLOW Core i7 CPU water block. We will apply a nearly passive water-cooling kit to it and observe installation and temperatures. Since we could take a Core i7 965 processor up towards an overclock of 4 GHz we'd say this ia a very succesful product from the guys over at Alphacool.
