The V.2 series

Alphacool presents the NexXxoS V.2 radiator as the further development of the already established NexXxoS V.1 series. By its account the radiator rightly takes its place among Alphacool's high-end full copper radiators. Alphacool credits the fresh design in modern, noble white and the numerous technical details, which it says make this radiator "the perfect partner for your own water cooling system".

Uncompromising in the choice of materials

Alphacool says it is the only manufacturer worldwide to use exclusively copper for all water-bearing parts in the radiator. The pre-chambers, the cooling fins and the cooling channels are all made of pure copper. Alphacool names the only exceptions: the threaded inserts are made of brass, and the outer casing of the radiator is made of sheet steel.

What the loop needs

The radiator has 5x G1/4 threads. A loop uses two of them, so the radiator takes two fittings, and the other three take the three screw plugs in the box. The manual says to remove the protective caps first and to close all threads you don't need with plugs. Two 120 mm fans fit on one side, four with both sides fitted, on M3 threads. In the manual the M3x8 screws are for case mounting, the M3x30 screws for fan mounting and the M3x35 screws for mounting a fan with a damper.

Notes

• Before use, the manual says to rinse the radiator with distilled water or Alphacool Cape Kelvin Catcher, and to read the safety instructions before starting the installation.
• Use only clear, transparent water cooling fluids. Alphacool warns that the particles and additives in pastel liquids can clog and permanently damage water cooling products such as radiators, pumps, coolers and hoses. It adds that this can result in voiding the manufacturer's warranty as well.
