The NEXLINQ and components will feature support for the whole new LINQ-6 connector that will be able to provide both power and D-RGB lighting to the fans.

Alphacool is breaking new ground and presenting the innovative Core DDCzero PWM pump at this year's COMPUTEX. This completely new development was designed in collaboration with Xylem and is offered exclusively by Alphacool.

The Core DDCzero PWM pump sets new standards in terms of performance and efficiency. It is powerful enough to reliably supply a complete cooling loop consisting of GPU, CPU and three radiators. At the same time, it remains particularly quiet and impresses with its extremely compact design, allowing it to be integrated into any system with ease.

EK, the leading Europe-based premium liquid-cooling gear manufacturer, is releasing a stand-alone VTX pump, perfect for compact loop environments. These VTX pumps, which are already featured in pump-reservoir combos, boast a DDC-compatible mount, remarkable head pressure, and efficient flow rates in a small footprint - making it ideal for smaller cases. The pumps can be used with all reservoirs and distribution plates compatible with DDC pumps, providing an alternative option.

EK-LOOP VTX PWM MOTOR
For its small footprint, the VTX pump offers great hydraulic characteristics with flow rates of up to 1100L/h and a maximum head pressure of 5.3 m. The VTX is not equipped with a heatsink since its efficient pump motor doesn't require additional external cooling. That is one of its advantages over the DDC variants.

EK, the renowned leader in computer cooling technology, is introducing the EK-Nucleus AIO Replacement Cover - Creator Kit, an optional replacement pump unit top for the EK Nucleus series AIO coolers that allows users to 3D print over the base and build their own unique AIO aesthetic. It replaces the stock top cover of the award-winning Nucleus AIOs available in 240 and 360 mm sizes, both of which come in black and white finishes.

In the Creator Kit box, users get a 3D-printed light guide with magnets, which is used as a platform for their 3D-printed creations. It is meant as a light diffuser, and the user gets to pick where it shines through by building specially designed extrudes of the 3D print. EK prepared a 3D model of the pump unit and a printed base, which can be remodeled and customized.

Featuring a dual pump, dual chamber design for unprecedented cooling efficiency, this AIO cooler is perfect for high-performance CPUs. It's not just about cooling; it's about customizability, style and setting new standards in the industry. Discover how the G11 AIO elevates your PC's performance and aesthetics.

A stunning eye-catcher and must-have for water cooling in the O11 Dynamic Evo/XL! Alphacool is launching the upgrade for the O11 Dynamic Evo/XL with this Core Distro Plate. It is designed for this case and is mounted on the inner side panel. The Distro Plate considerably simplifies the planning, construction and maintenance of complex water loops. It not only has an integrated reservoir, but also an integrated VPP Apex pump. Thanks to the arrangement of the G1/4" connections, confusing and complicated tube routes are a thing of the past.

The chrome-plated, brass G1/4" connections are an elegant element of the Alphacool Core Design series. They are fitted with an O-ring and embedded in the acrylic. This avoids the problem of possible leaks due to cracking. Made of high-quality acrylic glass, the Distro Plate allows a clear view of the coolant. The acrylic enables brilliant lighting thanks to the digitally addressable aRGB lighting.

After the great reception of the EK-Pro Pump Reservoir Manifold X6 in the market, EK, the premium water-cooling gear manufacturer, is launching another pump-reservoir-manifold combo unit, the EK-Pro Pump Reservoir Manifold X3 D5 - Acetal. Just like its predecessor, the X6, the latest product also has a dedicated fill port, drain port with an optional QDC, and a small window for visually monitoring the coolant level.

EK-Pro Pump Reservoir Manifold X3 D5 - Acetal
This is a custom water-cooling reservoir, routing, and pump solution. It can act as a regular pump-reservoir combo, be used as a manifold, or practically as a distribution plate, even though its aesthetics vastly differ from most distro plates. The X3 in the name designates the number of components it can directly connect as a manifold, and D5 indicates a single D5 pump pushing the liquid around the loop. It can be mounted to the case in many different ways. EK-Pro Pump Reservoir Manifold X3 D5 has M4 screw threads on the side opposite the ports and on the backside, allowing for plenty of mounting options, multiplied by the bracket with 120 mm fan mounting hole spacing (105 mm). Eight (8) G1/4" ports are available, of which two (2) act as dedicated fill and drain ports.

The Alphacool Core Flat Reservoir not only looks sleek with its aRGB lighting, but also offers flexibility with a total of 5 connections. The reservoir is made entirely of acrylic. The installation of a D5 or VPP pump is required for operation. Due to its flat design, the Core Flat Reservoir also fits in small cases.

Core Design
A key element of Alphacool's Core Design series are the chrome-plated G1/4" connections made of brass. In the Core Flat Reservoir, the connections are recessed rather than screwed into a thread, bypassing the problem of possible leaks due to cracking from the direct screwing of the connections into the acrylic. The connections are in two parts, fitted with an O-ring and counter each other when mounted in the acrylic. This not only ensures absolute sealing of each connection, but also allows for the clear and functional appearance of the Alphacool Core Design series.

EK-Pro Pump Reservoir Manifold X6 D5 - Acetal
This is a custom water-cooling reservoir, routing, and pump solution. It can act as a regular pump-reservoir combo, be used like a manifold, or, practically, as a distribution plate, even though its aesthetics vastly differ from most distro plates. The X6 in the name designates the number of components it can directly connect as a manifold, and D5 indicates a single D5 pump pushing the liquid around the loop. It can be mounted to the case in many different ways. EK-Pro Pump Reservoir Manifold X6 D5 has M4 screw threads on the side opposite to ports and on the backside, allowing for plenty of mounting options, multiplied by the bracket with 120 mm fan mounting hole spacing (105 mm). A staggering 14 G1/4" ports are available, of which two act as dedicated fill and drain ports.

EK, the premium water-cooling gear manufacturer, is launching a new universal distribution plate - EK-QuantumX Loophole Distroplate D5 PWM. The distro features an entire wall filled with ports, allowing users to pick the ones that fit their unique build perfectly. As the waterway has no prebuilt inner channels but rather an "open space" internal structure, the user can custom-route tubes from one port to another within the distro itself using micro 90-degree angled adapters and micro HDP or HDC fittings. This unprecedented flexibility and customizability is also reflected in the universal mounting on 140 mm fan mounting holes, enabling compatibility with almost any modern PC case. This product does not feature any LED illumination.

The EK-QuantumX Loophole Distroplate D5 PWM is a custom water-cooling reservoir, routing, and pump solution that can be mounted on 140 mm fan patterns inside the chassis (provided there's enough room for it in the case). It is unique in the sense that there are no pre-made channels for coolant routing. Instead, the channels are built by the user. The distro can be mounted on practically any 280 mm (2x140mm) mounting point, and with angled brackets (sold separately), users can mount it 90° to a 120 mm or 140 mm fan mount. It is part of the QuantumX Line aimed at enthusiasts who wish to stand out. The product comes in two finishes: Silver and Black.

ENERMAX, an industry-leading force dedicated to designing high-performance computer power supplies and cooling solutions, launches its first AIO CPU cooler with a VRM fan, the LIQMAXFLO series, featuring ENERMAX's latest Dual-Chamber Xtreme pump and latest silent fan, delivering exceptional improvements in cooling performance with maximum quietness.

To enhance cooling performance and deliver silent operation, the LIQMAXFLO series boasts intelligent PWM functionality from VRM fan to radiator fan to pump. The series also relies on ENERMAX's latest Silent Flow PWM fan, which offers exceptionally quiet operation with maximum noise at 23.46 dBA thanks to the improved fan blade and crafted angle. The inclusion of a 60 mm VRM fan within the water block further extends its cooling capacity, enhancing air circulation within the system and efficiently reducing the temperatures of CPU VRMs and surrounding components on the motherboard. In addition, the pump cover is changeable with a magnetic connection, so the orientation of the logo can be changed at 90°. Different options for pump covers will also be available soon for easier customization.

EK, the premium water cooling gear manufacturer, is proud to introduce the limited edition EK-Quantum Torsion A60 PC case, created specially for liquid-cooled builds. It is entirely built of CNC-milled aluminium, weighing around 22 kg. The EK-Quantum Torsion A60 is not just a case but a statement. Its machined channels for custom-sleeved cables and an integrated D5-powered distribution plate make it a true marvel for water-cooling enthusiasts. The case fits the mid-tower standard and fits up to three medium-thick EK-Quantum Surface P360 radiators. A tempered glass side panel, an integrated vertical GPU bracket, and support for ATX and E-ATX motherboards are only a few of the perks this chassis has to offer.

Crafted in Aluminium, Cooled in Style
EK-Quantum Torsion A60 boasts a chassis machined entirely out of 6082 aluminium alloy using state-of-the-art CNC machining. The 6082 alloy has the highest strength among the 6000 series alloys and boasts excellent corrosion resistance. This results in a case that not only exudes durability but radiates a sense of refined elegance. The precisely engineered design showcases attention to detail in every facet, making it the perfect canvas for your liquid cooling ambitions. Every piece is held together with hex screws, so you can disassemble, customize, and modify anything you desire.

The new Core Distro Plate from Alphacool is a must-have for every performance-oriented custom water cooling system. It greatly simplifies the planning, construction and maintenance of complex water loops. The Distro Plate features an integrated reservoir with pump top for VPP/D5 pumps. Due to the arrangement of the G1/4" connections, confusing and complicated tubing paths will be a thing of the past. Therefore, the Core Distro Plate is ideally suited for custom water loops in which CPU and graphics card(s) are to be cooled simultaneously.

A beautiful and elegant element of the Core Distro Plate are the chrome-plated, brass G1/4" connectors. Recessed into the acrylic and fitted with an O-ring, the connectors are absolutely leak-proof and support the clean and functional look of the Alphacool Core Design series. The connections are not screwed directly into the acrylic to prevent cracking and resulting leakage.

The multi-talent from Alphacool, the Eisbaer Pro Aurora CPU AIO has received an upgrade! It is now available with the extremely powerful NexXxos HPE radiator. This improvement enables even processors with particularly large CPU cores to be cooled even more effectively. The included mounting kit allows high compatibility with all common sockets, including the new AMD AM5.

The NexXxos HPE radiator uses the same materials as the previous NexXxos models, but goes a step further technically. Due to the condensed internal structure, the number of water channels and copper fins has been increased. Thus, a larger volume of water is in direct contact with the cooling fins and the heat transfer is improved enormously. Alphacool continues to use the Rise Aurora 120 mm fan. The fan, which can be controlled via PWM, is almost silent at 800 rpm, but still offers a good air throughput together with a high static pressure. The cooler as well as the fans feature digitally addressable RGB LEDs, allowing for a brilliant illumination.

Now available, is the Alphacool VPP Apex pump! The new pump in the decent matte black design can definitely be called the legitimate successor of the previously so successful VPP755 V3. For this reason, it is logical that many technical innovations have been adopted from the predecessor model. The maximum head of 4.25 m and the flow rate of 340 L/h are clear arguments for using the pump in a performance-oriented water cooling system.

Alphacool's VPP Apex relies on a smooth-running ceramic shaft. In addition, the motor's coils have been moved from the inside to the outside. These features successfully counteract the occurrence of vibrations, with the result that the pump operates stably as well as smoothly. A positive side effect is that power consumption is almost halved compared to similar pumps on the market.

EK, is happy to announce that all stand-alone pumps, pump-reservoir combo units, and distribution plates now come with the newest and latest genuine Xylem D5 and DDC pumps. The transition started months ago, but now, all of the EK stock has been fully converted to products using these new pumps. The D5 variants have been upgraded from G2 to G3, which signifies their generation, and the DDC pumps now come in 4.2 variants upgraded from the 3.2 version. All EK products that are now using the latest version of a D5 or DDC pump did not undergo any price changes as a result of these upgrades.

The G3 motor is a successor to the world-renowned Xylem D5 PWM pump. It features an improved PWM control driver. The cables come all black now for a reduction in visible cable clutter. To top it off, the connector is now changed to a SATA power plug, which is much easier for users to connect but also has a smaller footprint, and further reduces the need for MOLEX 4-pin cables on your modular power supply. All this leads to a cleaner build with fewer and less visible cables.

TechN adds a pump housing to the portfolio of high-quality water-cooling components. The Laing DDC pumps receive a premium anodized housing. It gives an often-neglected part of the cooling loop the shine it deserves.

The integrated Bitspower P5D pump offers a flow-rate of up to 14.5 L/m, with a maximum noise output of 40 dBA. It can be regulated using standard 4-pin PWM signal. The acrylic body is studded with addressable RGB LEDs that take in standard 3-pin headers, and can be controlled via software. Available now, the XYZ is priced at the equivalent of USD $160.

EK, the premium liquid cooling gear manufacturer, is releasing a new Quantum line of small form factor pump-reservoir combo units. They come in well-known FLT form that makes them even easier to fit in tight spaces. The pump-reservoir combos come in both genuine D5 and DDC variants, as well as a body variant if you intend to use a DDC or D5 pump that you already own. EK-Quantum products come with sophisticated 5 V D-RGB addressable LEDs, which can be controlled through your motherboard RGB control software.

These pump-res combos are very similar to the EK-Quantum Kinetic 120 units but come in an even smaller form - 80 mm. This makes them extremely convenient for small form factor builds and wherever space is an issue. The unit features standard 120 mm and 80 mm fan mounting holes for maximum flexibility during the installation. The side of the unit has two more M4 threaded screw holes, 65 mm apart, that are also present on the EK-Loop Uni Pump Reservoir Brackets, which are sold separately.

EK, the leading computer cooling solutions provider, is launching its new Quantum Line products for the DDC and D5 pumps, the EK-Quantum Convection D5 and EK-Quantum Convection DDC. These D5 covers and DDC heatsinks are available in three distinct finishes - Silver, Black, and Nickel - to provide users with different aesthetic options.

The market-leading D5 pumps get a CNC-machined aluminium cover, the EK-Quantum Convection D5, which is compatible with EK-Quantum Reflection distribution plates that feature a D5 pump and the D5-based EK-Quantum Kinetic FLT pump-reservoir combos. It is available in three finishes - anodized Silver, Black, and in a Nickel-plated variant. It can be fitted over genuine D5 pumps. It is designed to improve the aesthetics of pumps. A rectangular design with a convenient hole for routing the cable and hiding it as much as possible allows for a cleaner look of the pump.

The new HEATKILLER Multitop series for Lowara/Laing DDC pumps features a unique modular design and expandability. Each top is manufactured from a solid, 30 mm thick acetal block while the internal structure has been optimized for head and flow capacity. The series includes a SINGLETOP, a MULTITOP X2 as well as MULTITOP X3 and an EXPANSION-TOP. The SINGLETOP is designed to operate one DDC pump and, unlike the MULTITOPS, cannot be expanded.

The expandable MULTITOP X2 and X3 are designed to operate two respectively three DDC pumps in series, thereby significantly increasing the delivery head. For the MULTITOP X3, an EXPANSION TOP serves as connection between input and output. An expansion with additional EXPANSION TOPs is easily possible with both the MULTITOP X3 and X2, theoretically allowing infinite scaling.
