Alphacool Launches Eisblock Aurora Acryl GPX-A for PowerColor Red Devil RX 6900/6800 GPUs

Raevenlord · Dec 16, 2020

Alphacool presents the Eisblock Aurora Acryl GPX-N block for the PowerColor Red Devil graphics cards. The blocks offer outstanding cooling performance thanks to the full cover design. The new backplate, which is included with the coolers, also contributes to this. This stabilizes the graphics card and ensures an even contact pressure of the cooler. The cold plates are made of solid nickel-plated copper. The coolers cover all relevant components such as voltage converters and the graphics memory.

Compatible with:

Red Devil AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT 16 GB GDDR6 Limited Edition (AXRX 6900XT 16GBD6-2DHCE/OC)

Well, imho, some of these recent backplates are starting look like rgb'd ant farm abortions gone bad, real bad, hehehe

I know they look different when in use, but still......

You meant "fullcovers", right?

And it sure is. All for the sake of... "cool looks", symmetry? IDK... But it's a waterblock - function over form!!! It's supposed to be efficient (in both temps and low pressure drop) and easy to clean, looks are of lower importance.

That's a stupid amount of o-rings. Almost needs an Xhibit o-ring meme lol. It's also a lot more areas for potential leaks.

It resembles an engineering design blueprint.
Surely it can't be that hard to get liquid to flow from one end of the card to the other, put a port either end instead of placing them beside each other.
