Alphacool Core 70 Tube Reservoir with VPP/D5 Apex PWM Pump (13742)

The Alphacool Core 70 Tube Reservoir with VPP/D5 Apex PWM Pump stands out by integrating a high-performance D5 pump directly into a compact, transparent reservoir, eliminating the need for separate pump tops and reducing loop complexity. This all-in-one unit is ideal for custom water-cooling loops where space is at a premium but performance cannot be compromised.

Highlights

• Integrated Alphacool VPP/D5 Apex PWM pump with speeds from 2500 to 4500 RPM for precise flow control.
• 70 mm diameter PMMA tube with a 160 mm length, offering approximately 250 ml of coolant capacity.
• Five G1/4" ports (three top, two bottom) for flexible loop routing.
• Addressable digital RGB lighting via a 3-pin JST connector (5V) for stunning visual effects.
• Universal mounting system compatible with 120 mm and 140 mm fan mounts.

In daily use

This reservoir-pump combo delivers reliable, quiet operation. The PWM control allows the pump to adjust speed based on system load, balancing performance and acoustics. The clear PMMA tube lets you monitor coolant level and check for air bubbles at a glance, while the acetal end caps provide durability and a clean aesthetic. The integrated RGB lighting can be synchronized with your motherboard or controller for a cohesive build theme.
