The new AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT (X) GPU is here! And Alphacool offers its new Eisblock Aurora cooler, a new, innovative active water cooler for custom layouts of AMD Radeon graphics cards. With significant improvements over the previous Aurora generation, Alphacool now takes it a big step further. What's new. Going forward, Alphacool is now using chrome plating on the copper radiators for all graphics card coolers instead of nickel plating. This is significantly harder and more resistant than nickel plating. The addressable RGB LED lighting also shines better because the chrome plating is much smoother and distributes the light even more beautifully in the cooler.

To dissipate the enormous amount of waste heat, the water flow has been completely redesigned. The jetplate is embedded in the cooling fins and is pressed onto them by a completely redesigned inlet with an O-ring. This ensures that the water is reliably forced through the cooling fins. Optimization of the cooling fins leads to a further increase in performance. The cooling fins were reduced to 0.4 mm and the distance between the fins was minimized to 0.4 mm. This creates a larger cooling surface and reduces the flow resistance of the cooler. This results in a performance plus.

More performance for GeForce RTX 4090! With the Eisblock Aurora, Alphacool presents new, innovative coolers for active water cooling of Gigabyte, ASUS, Palit as well as Gainward graphics cards.

The modified jet plate with improved inflow engine ensures optimum distribution of the water on the cooling fins.

The fully chrome-plated copper base is resistant to acids, scratches and damage. Additionally, the chrome plating provides homogeneity and shine that cannot be achieved by nickel plating. The illumination from the digitally addressable RGB LEDs is even better distributed throughout the cooler thanks to the chrome plating. The Aurora design of the GeForce RTX 40XX Eisblock Generation is visually quiet and sleek because only one O-ring runs around the entire cooler. Also, the design around the cooling fins and jetplate makes for a cleaner look.
