ALL FOR (virtually) NOTHING! // Alphacool NexXxoS XP3 Light CPU Waterblock Review

How does the cheapest Alphacool block stand up the more expensive offerings from EK (well, one expensive offering from a while back... look, we're just getting started, it'll flesh out in time).
P.S. - The "All for Nothing" part of the title is a reference to getting a lot of performance for not a lot of money. It sounds like clickbait, but it's not when the context of the performance and price is mentioned.

Good stuff man, nice to see some other brands than EK. Sure EK makes nice stuff but it gets stale and on pricing the lost their minds

[@dotms5195]

Agreed, happy to see something different than EK.

[@TheSickness]

@@dotms5195 Maybe other water cooling companies should step up and sponsor more creators, it's kind of on everyone else to just let EK have the field and public perception. Can't blame that on EK

[@AVTechy]

Yes please :D

[@Hathal_98]

[@AVTechy]

[@TotoGeenen]

Wow you got 95 votes on that poll. That's more than I thought. Anyways, nice video as usual. Nice vrm cooler you got there xd.

[@AVTechy]

Yeah, quite the turnout! Cheers man. That phoned in VRM fan worked a treat, but it's sure ugly :D

[@Safetytrousers]

The AM4 EK block I have just has captive thumb screws that screw into the stock backplate. This Alphacool looks like a right faff.
