Only few companies can look back to such a long history of experience and tradition in CPU water block development and manufacturing as Alphacool. In the young water cooling sector, from 2004 to 2007, Alphacool aced many tests with the NexXxos HP and NexXxos XP CPU water block series. A multitude of awards and 1st places were the reward for offering the best water block on the market. With the "Alphacool HF 14 Yellowstone", Alphacool continued water block development. The result: Alphacool was voted "CPU water block manufacturer of the year 2011" by the PCGH user community.
Since the beginning of 2010, Alphacool has been developing and testing the successor for over 14 months. Never in company history had such an effort been made towards improvement of a product, but the goal was clear: The new Alphacool NexXxoS XP³ was not only being developed to better its predecessors, but also exceed the cooling performance of all other products on the market.
Different tests have already proven that the goal has been achieved and that Alphacool has created a true flagship water block.
In the first review, great flow rates and exceptional cooling performance ensured a solid win for the NexXxos XP³
