Computer Cooling System Alphacool 17428 Aluminium Black Liquid 49mm Height

The Alphacool 17428 Aluminium Black Liquid cooling system is a compact cooling solution for desktop PCs. Constructed from durable aluminium and designed for liquid-based heat transfer, this unit measures 49 mm in height with a 50 mm diameter and weighs approximately 115 g. Its compact footprint and metal construction offer stable thermal contact and reliable heat dissipation for small to medium-sized builds.

Advantages

The aluminium body provides a favorable balance of weight and thermal conductivity while resisting corrosion in typical PC environments. The liquid cooling approach improves heat transfer compared with passive air-only components, allowing more consistent temperatures under sustained load. Its low-profile 49 mm height and 50 mm diameter enable installation in confined spaces where taller or bulkier coolers would not fit.

Suitable for

• Small form-factor desktop systems where vertical clearance is limited
• Systems requiring efficient localized cooling for components with moderate heat output
• Upgrades aimed at reducing operating temperatures during prolonged workloads or gaming sessions
• Builds prioritizing a lightweight cooling solution with metal construction

Key specifications

• Material: aluminium construction for improved thermal conduction
• Cooling type: liquid-based heat transfer
• Height: 49 mm
• Diameter: 50 mm
• Weight: approximately 115 g
• Color: black finish

How to use

Install the cooling system according to your motherboard and chassis layout, ensuring sufficient clearance for the 49 mm height and 50 mm diameter. Secure the unit with appropriate mounting hardware and connect any required hoses or fittings to the existing loop if used as part of a custom liquid cooling circuit. Fill and bleed the loop following the coolant manufacturer's instructions, then power up the system to verify proper flow and temperature readings. Monitor temperatures after installation to confirm expected thermal performance.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, use compatible non-conductive coolant and follow routine maintenance: check fittings and fluid levels periodically, flush and replace coolant according to the coolant manufacturer's schedule, and verify that the unit is mounted with adequate airflow around it. Ensure compatibility with your case and cooling loop components before installation.
