Water block Aqua-Computer cuplex kryos NEXT LGA 1700 Acetal/Copper – CPU cooling block for Intel LGA 1700

The Aqua-Computer cuplex kryos NEXT LGA 1700 Acetal/Copper is a CPU water block engineered for Intel LGA 1700 socket systems. Featuring an acetal top and a copper coldplate, this block provides direct liquid contact cooling for CPUs in custom water-cooling loops. It is intended for desktop cooling builds where reliable heat transfer, mechanical compatibility with LGA 1700, and predictable thermal performance are required to maintain processor temperatures under sustained load.

Advantages

The combination of an acetal top and a copper coldplate balances durability and thermal conductivity: copper ensures efficient heat transfer from the CPU to the coolant while the acetal top offers chemical resistance and structural stability. The internal channel geometry is optimized for a compromise between flow resistance and cooling surface area, enabling effective heat dissipation in typical custom-loop flow rates. The block's mounting interface is designed to match LGA 1700 mounting points, ensuring straightforward installation and secure contact with the processor heatspreader.

Suitable for

• Custom liquid-cooled desktop PCs based on Intel LGA 1700 processors
• High-performance workstations where sustained CPU cooling is required
• Overclocked systems with professional or enthusiast cooling loops
• Silent or low-noise builds using water cooling to reduce fan reliance

Key specifications

• Socket compatibility: Intel LGA 1700
• Top material: acetal (plastic)
• Coldplate material: copper
• Cooling type: direct liquid CPU block for custom loops
• Connection: standard G1/4 or compatible threaded ports for fittings (verify fitting type before installation)

How to use

Mount the water block on an LGA 1700-compatible motherboard using the supplied mounting hardware and follow the manufacturer torque recommendations to ensure even pressure on the CPU heatspreader. Prepare the custom loop with compatible fittings, tubing and coolant; connect inlet and outlet lines to the block's ports and fill the loop, then perform leak testing before powering the system. Ensure the copper coldplate surface is clean and apply an appropriate thin layer of thermal interface material between the CPU heatspreader and the block to optimize thermal contact.

Recommendations

Use corrosion-inhibited, non-conductive coolant and compatible tubing/fittings. Periodically inspect and service the cooling loop—clean or replace coolant and check for particulate buildup—to maintain thermal performance and prevent flow restriction. Verify compatibility of fittings and clearances in your case and confirm mounting hardware for LGA 1700 prior to installation.
