Water block Aqua-Computer cuplex kryos NEXT RGBpx per socket Intel 1200/1156/1155/1151/1150 — parte superiore in acrilico, rame nichelato, nero

The Aqua-Computer cuplex kryos NEXT RGBpx is a CPU water block designed for custom liquid cooling loops, compatible with Intel socket series 1200, 1156, 1155, 1151 and 1150. It combines a clear acrylic top with a nickel-plated copper cold plate and a black finish to provide direct heat transfer from the CPU to the cooling liquid. The integrated RGBpx lighting interface allows addressable illumination synchronization with supported controllers while the mounting is tailored for standard Intel retention mechanisms.

Advantages

The cuplex kryos NEXT RGBpx offers efficient thermal contact through a nickel-plated copper cold plate that balances corrosion resistance with high thermal conductivity. The acrylic top provides visual access to coolant flow and lighting effects without compromising structural integrity. Its black finish and compact footprint suit a variety of builds and the RGBpx-compatible lighting enables precise control over color and effects. The block is optimized for easy integration into existing custom loops and for stable CPU cooling under variable loads.

Suitable for

• Custom liquid cooling systems for desktop Intel-based PCs
• Quiet, high-performance workstations and gaming rigs requiring direct CPU cooling
• Builds where visible coolant and RGB lighting are desired

Key specifications

• Compatible CPU sockets: Intel 1200, 1156, 1155, 1151, 1150
• Top material: acrylic
• Cold plate material: nickel-plated copper
• Finish color: black
• Integrated addressable RGBpx lighting support
• Designed for installation in custom liquid cooling loops

How to use

Prepare the CPU and motherboard according to the motherboard manufacturer's instructions and apply a thin, even layer of thermal interface material to the CPU heatspreader. Place the water block onto the CPU and secure it using the included Intel-compatible mounting hardware, ensuring even pressure across the cold plate. Connect the block into the loop using appropriate fittings and tubing; verify flow direction and leak-test the system before powering on the PC. Connect the RGBpx lighting connector to a compatible controller or motherboard header to enable addressable lighting control.

Recommendations

Use corrosion-inhibiting coolant and follow typical maintenance intervals for custom loops: periodic inspection for leaks, coolant condition checks, and replacement of coolant according to the coolant manufacturer's guidance. Ensure fittings are tightened to specification and avoid overtightening the mounting hardware to prevent damage to the cold plate or CPU socket.
