Alphacool NexXxoS XT45 Full Copper X-Flow 420mm radiator

Upgraded from 240mm alphacool st30 in push/pull to this alphacool xt45 xflow in push only. I am very happy with the performance. Temps are more stable at full load. The 100% copper design is really excellent quality. Would recommend alphacool rads to anyone.

Leider ein paar Abzüge. Farbe blättert schnell ab. Aber schlimmer ist, wenn die zu verbauenden Fittinge zu fest angezogen werden, dann kann es passieren, dass sich das Gewinde löst und das bedeutet es wird nicht leicht werden, das Gewinde wieder anzulöten. Ich nutze nur die Hand ohne Werkzeug, wenn ich an der Wasserkühlung rum fummel. Ich brauche also keine große Kraft um das Gewinde zu lösen.

The stigma behind x-flow radiators needs to be put to bed. This one rocks, great flow and keeps everything super cool while OC'ed. The approach behind this type makes for some very logical loop plumbing cutting down the need for excess amounts of fittings and tubing. Because of this design I was able to go with a 420mm over a 360mm too.

Well it just came today. The delivery is fast considering all that is going on. The low star is due to the quality for an 100 dollars radiator. The paint around my screw chipped. I only found out about it after I have to remove my fan to swap the fan wire direction. The frame metal is not copper. I guess it’s ok since the chipped off area is just used to mount the radiator. It’s a bit light as well. Lighter than my EK 60mm 360 rad. I was expecting something similar since this is a 45 mm 420 rad. I’m not sure about the fin metrical. I know my EK 60mm 360 rad have copper fins. So take a guess.
