Alphacool Core Ocean T38 AIO 360mm
With the Core Ocean AiO, Alphacool presents an all-in-one solution that, thanks to its excellent price-performance ratio, enables entry into performance-oriented CPU water cooling. The difference to the Eisbaer CPU AiO is that the Ocean All-in-One cannot be expanded. Adding further components such as GPU coolers, radiators or expansion tanks is not planned here. But it is not necessary either! The selection of components and the design of the Core Ocean enable a long service life with low maintenance for water cooling of all common mainstream sockets from AMD and Intel.
Aluminum Radiator
Compared to Alphacool's solid copper models, the T38 aluminum radiator has additional cooling channels. This technical design allows a significant increase in cooling performance without restricting the water flow within the radiator. Due to the low height of 38mm, the radiator with one-sided fan can fit into the tightest of cases and enables powerful water cooling of the CPU.
Core fan
The fan can be controlled from 0 to 2500 rpm via the 4-pin PWM connection. The cable is 40cm long. This means that the fan can be connected to the mainboard or a special controller without any additional adapter cables or extensions. At 2500 rpm it enables an air flow of 62.8 CFM, coupled with a high static pressure of 2.13mm/H2O. This makes the fan perfect for mounting on radiators of a water cooling system.
Cooler & pump
As with all Alphacool products, the cooler base is made of copper and is equipped with very fine cooling fins that are distributed over the entire base. A nozzle plate ensures an accelerated flow over the cooling fins, which increases the cooling performance. The water flow is optimized so that all areas of the cooler base are cooled evenly. The cooler is compatible with all common mainstream sockets from AMD and Intel. The built-in pump has a speed range of 2500 - 3500 RPM (+/- 10%) and can be controlled via PWM. The pump is connected to the mainboard or an external controller via the existing 4-pin fan connector. This allows the speed range of the pump to be controlled and read out.
Hoses & connections
The FEP hoses are 40cm long, sleeved and very flexible. The rotatable 360° connections to the cooler and the radiator are permanently installed and cannot be replaced. The combination of hose and connection allows the AiO to be positioned very variably, even in the tightest PC case.
Lighting
12 digitally addressable 5V RGB LEDs are installed in the pump housing, which create a unique, very classy-looking lighting. The digital aRGB LED lighting is connected via a JST 3-pin connector. To control the lighting, the 3-pin female connector must be connected to a digital RGB controller (not included) or a digital RGB-capable mainboard. Additional digital RGB LEDs can be connected to the remaining 3-pin male connector.
Thermal paste
The thermal paste included in the scope of delivery has a thermal conductivity of 7.5 W/mK. The thermal grease does not harden, is well suited to high contact pressures and can be processed perfectly thanks to the optimally selected viscosity.
