Water block CPU Aqua-Computer cuplex kryos NEXT RGBpx nero LGA 1700 acetale/nickel

The Aqua-Computer cuplex kryos NEXT RGBpx schwarz is a CPU water block designed for Intel LGA 1700 sockets. Constructed with an acetal top and a nickel-plated copper cold plate, this water block integrates into custom liquid-cooling loops to transfer processor heat to the coolant. It supports RGBpx lighting for synchronized illumination and is intended for systems where efficient heat removal from the CPU is required, including high-performance and overclocked configurations.

Advantages

The cuplex kryos NEXT combines a corrosion-resistant acetal top with a nickel-plated cold plate to provide reliable thermal contact and long-term durability. Its internal flow design is optimized for effective heat transfer while maintaining compatibility with standard G1/4 fittings. Integrated RGBpx lighting allows addressable illumination control when connected to compatible controllers. The unit is engineered for minimal thermal resistance and straightforward integration into custom water-cooling loops.

Suitable for

• Air-to-liquid conversion in high-performance desktop systems
• Custom water-cooling loops for gaming and workstation PCs
• Cooling overclocked Intel LGA 1700 processors
• Silent computing setups that rely on liquid cooling to reduce fan speeds

Key specifications

• Socket compatibility: Intel LGA 1700
• Top material: acetal (black)
• Cold plate: copper with nickel plating
• Lighting: addressable RGBpx support
• Fittings: standard G1/4 thread compatibility
• Intended use: integration in custom liquid-cooling loops

How to use

Mount the water block onto the compatible LGA 1700 CPU following the manufacturer's mounting procedure, ensuring even pressure and correct orientation. Connect the inlet and outlet to the loop using G1/4 fittings and appropriate tubing, and fill and bleed the cooling loop according to standard liquid-cooling practices. Connect the RGBpx lighting cable to a compatible controller or motherboard header to enable addressable lighting control. Verify leak-tight connections and perform an initial circulation test before powering the full system.

Recommendations

Use corrosion-inhibited coolant and ensure compatibility of all loop materials. Tighten G1/4 fittings to manufacturer torque guidance to avoid leaks. Periodically inspect the loop for deposits and perform maintenance according to coolant manufacturer instructions to preserve thermal performance and the nickel-plated surface.
