Water block Alphacool 17631 Aluminium Black 7.9mm 125mm 34mm

The Alphacool Core DDR5-RAM cooler is a passive aluminium module designed to provide reliable cooling for DDR5 memory modules and to serve as a mounting base for Alphacool D-RAM water coolers. Made of black-finished aluminium and supplied in a pack of two, the module clamps onto DDR5 modules using included thermal pads and remains compatible with D-RAM water blocks that attach to the Core DDR5 module for active water cooling.

Advantages

The aluminium construction offers good thermal conductivity while remaining lightweight and durable. Compatibility with both single-sided and double-sided populated DDR5 modules ensures broad applicability. Supplied thermal pads allow secure attachment and improved heat transfer, and the module’s design enables simple integration into existing Alphacool D-RAM water cooling loops.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Cooling DDR5 memory modules in desktop PCs
• Integration into custom water-cooling loops with Alphacool D-RAM water blocks
• Systems where compact, low-profile RAM cooling is required

How to use

Remove any existing cooling covers from the RAM modules, clean contact surfaces if necessary, and place the supplied thermal pads onto the Core DDR5 module. Position the aluminium core over the RAM module and clamp it in place following the included mounting instructions. If active water cooling is required, mount the Alphacool D-RAM water cooler on top of the Core DDR5 module and connect it to your coolant loop according to the water block manual.

Recommendations

Ensure RAM modules are within the supported size envelope and that the motherboard layout provides clearance for the 34 mm module height. Use the supplied thermal pads and the manufacturer’s instructions when installing. For water-cooled configurations, verify loop fittings and leak-test the system before normal operation.
