But what exactly is this new ” Core Push Mounting ” kit from Alphacool? Alphacool has been updating its Core and APEX product ranges for several weeks now, and we’ve already had a chance to review the Core 1 CPU waterblocks and the Core Geforce RTX 4090 GameRock Phantom. The complete Eiswolf 2 AIO – 360 mm RTX 4090 TUF kit and the Eiszeit 2000 Chiller have also passed through our hands.
But let’s get back to this new ” Core Push Mounting ” product, which may well make your life easier when it comes to installing a DistroPlate for your cooling loop. The idea is to centralize all the components of your cooling system. But if your case doesn’t have a place for it, how do you mount it? Alphacool offers a system of spacers. These are screwed to the DistroPlate and the corresponding sockets are attached to the radiator or to your PC case.
In the next assembly step, without tools, the DistroPlate is pushed onto the pins. These ” Core Push Mountings ” provide a very solid and stable mounting system. What’s more, it makes dismantling for maintenance or future extensions considerably easier.
The ” Core Push Mounting ” kit is now available in 17 mm, 25 mm and 50 mm versions in the Alphacool online store. Prices range from 16 to 20 euros.
