THE EISBAER 240

If the Eisbaer didn't feature that quick-lock mechanism on one of its tubings it would be almost identical to the Eisberg we reviewed last year.

The radiator is a member of the NexXxoS ST30 line and measures 278mm in length, 120mm in width and 30mm in height (just like most dual 120mm radiators used in AIO models).

Fin quality is pretty much excellent as you can see from the above picture (FPI count of 16).

The PVC tubings feature anti-kink coils (just like the ones used in the Eisberg) and that's something we still haven't seen from another manufacturer (kudos to Alphacool for that).

This quick-lock mechanism allows you to connect another radiator or a graphics card waterblock in the loop with ease (or connect the upcoming GPX-Pro AIO liquid cooler).

Once again we see that Alphacool has used one of the largest pump/waterblock combos with their AIO model (unfortunately just like the Eisberg the tubings can't rotate like most other AIO models in the market).

There's a fill port ontop of the pump right next to the company logo.

This small plastic window placed on the side of the pump allows you to see the coolant level and add more if needed.

The all-copper base is polished but has quite a few stains on it (can't feel it with your fingers so it shouldn't affect performance).

Alphacool bundles two Eiswind sleeve-bearing fans with the Eisbaer and although these are "tweaked" to produce high static pressure they don't look nearly as special as the Coolmove 2 ones used in the Eisberg model (the ones bundled with the Eisbaer 280 look a lot better).

With both fans mounted on the radiator it now measures 55mm in thickness.

Once you connect the pump with your mainboard the Alphacool logo lights up and i have to admit i like it a lot more than the one found on the Eisberg (that one didn't have a LED).
