Alphacool’s Eisbaer Solo is a compact block, pump and reservoir combo

A traditional watercooling set up can take up quite a bit of space after fitting a pump, reservoir, radiator and blocks. Over time, companies have been making water cooling more accessible with various all-in-one units but there are still plenty of people that prefer custom water cooling. If you are low on space, then the Alphacool Eisbaer Solo could help, acting as a CPU block, pump and reservoir.

The Eisbaer Solo is super compact, integrating a pump and reservoir into the CPU block itself. The inlet and outlet are positioned on top of the block as you would expect, there is also a fill port to get coolant working its way through the loop. Standard G1/4″ connections are used too, so this will be compatible with the majority of standard liquid cooling gear available.

Inside the block, you'll find as DC-LT low noise ceramic pump, which is also used in Alphacool's all-in-one CPU coolers and external cooling products, like the Eiswand. The pump rotates at 2600rpm and uses just 4W of power, making it one of the more eco-friendly options available.

Here are the technical details:
Pump: Alphacool DC-LT 2600 Ultra low noise Ceramic
Speed: 2600 rpm
Voltage: 7- 13.5V DC
Power Consumption: 4W
Maximum Flow Rate: 70L/h
Max. Head: 0.85m

The block is compatible with Intel and AMD sockets, including: Intel 775, Intel 1366, Intel 1150/1151/1155/1156, Intel 2011-3, AMD AM4, AMD AM3+/AM3/AM2+/AM2/939/FM2+/FM2/FM1/G34/940.

The Eisbaer Solo is available now through Alphacool, with the price sitting at €54.95.

KitGuru Says: This looks like a solid option for those looking to set up a custom loop in a tight space. Are any of you thinking about making the jump to custom water cooling?

The launch of the new Intel Core Ultra 200S family of CPUs along with Z890 motherboards was a thorny process. KitGuru suffered along with pretty much every other review site on the planet and you may have noticed we held off from reviewing of the Core Ultra 9 285K, Core Ultra 7 265K and Core Ultra 5 245K as it is clear to us that Intel has some work to do before this platform is ready for action.
