Two New Open-Loop Kits from Alphacool
Alphacool is announcing two new additions to their Eissturm open-loop series kits. Introducing the Blizzard and Tornado, adding more options besides the Hurricane and the Gaming kits released previously. These provide a complete solution out of the box, all of which are compatible and require only installation and refilling. The kits even come with a 1000ml CKC Cape Kelvin Catcher clear, ATX bridging plug, and Y-adapter for the fans.
Unlike all-in-one liquid cooling loop kits, these are expandable and can be integrated into other closed-loop systems. They are require the same type of maintenance as custom-loop systems as well.
What Hardware is in the Eissturm Tornado Kit?
The Tornado comes with a high-end Eisblock XPX CPU cooler, a NexXxuS UT60 copper radiator, a powerful VPP755 silent pump and Eiszapfen fittings. It also uses an Eisbecher D5 150 mm reservoir.
Users can choose between two radiator sizes: 240 and 280mm. Both include a pair of either 120mm or 140mm Eiswind Silent Edition fans.
