Alphacool debuts 2nd Gen Core Distro Plate for easy liquid cooling

Alphacool has expanded its water‑cooling lineup with the Core Distro Plate V2, a redesigned distribution plate aimed at simplifying custom loop planning and installation. The updated model focuses on flexibility, offering a slimmer profile, revised port layout and an integrated drain port to support shorter tubing runs and easier maintenance.

The plate is manufactured from clear acrylic glass to provide an unobstructed view of the coolant, with digital aRGB lighting built in for system illumination. You will also find chrome‑plated brass G1/4 fittings are embedded directly into the acrylic body to improve durability and reduce the risk of leaks.

Alphacool has also reworked the pump mounting system, allowing users to install VPP/D5 or DDC pumps depending on their build requirements. The included VPP Apex pump uses a ceramic shaft and updated motor design intended to deliver quieter, more efficient operation through PWM control. A Core Push Mounting Kit is supplied for secure installation.

The Core Distro Plate V.2 is available in 240mm and 360mm sizes, with options for left or right-side pump placement to accommodate different case layouts. The 240mm version will be priced at €249.98 while the 360mm version will be priced at €279.98.
