Arctic Cooling needs no introduction; they have been around forever it seems. They have been making coolers for both CPUs and graphics cards for as long as I can remember and also they’re the makers of one of my favorite thermal compounds, MX-2. The reasons behind why it is my favorite compound? Well, first off, it spreads very nice. There is no need for a special spatula or use of a credit card. Just put a blob in the middle of the die and spread it around by any means. Secondly, it takes no time to cure and has no conductive properties, a definite plus, especially if you apply too much material. In this case, what squeezes out the side will cause no harm; it just makes for a bit more cleanup later. The last reason I usually go for a tube of MX-2 is the availability and pricing.
Arctic Cooling erweiterte mit dem L2 Pro Grafikkartenkühler ihr umfangreiches Portfolio und so ist es fast schon Tradition auf Technic3D, dass wir auch diesen Kühler auf sein Preis-Leistungsverhältnis hin testen. Wir entschieden uns, die HD5770 Grafikkarte zu modifizieren, da gerade die Mainstream Karte im Referenzdesign in den Bereichen Kühlung und Lautstärke die Redaktion bisher nicht gerade überzeugte. Was der L2 Pro da noch herausholen konnte, zeigt der aktuelle Testbericht.
The Freezer XTREME Rev. 2 is a CPU cooler with twin heatsinks, four heatpipes, and a 120 mm fan. Let's check it out!
KitGuru has looked at a number of Arctic Cooling’s products over the past weeks and they’ve all been impressive, winning some of our most sought after awards. One of these products was the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro (Rev.2) which proved to be a great upgrade from the Intel Stock Cooler and provided great performance for the price.
The Freezer A30 heatsink is an updated version of the AC Freezer 13 Pro, but this time around it's shed its copper base plate for bare heatpipes and had its mounting brackets restricted to AMD processors. The Freezer A30 stands 162mm tall, is built around a familiar tower-style-exposed-heatpipe-heatsink format and weighs a hefty 905 grams. The cooler comes with a single 120mm PWM fan which is mounted to the aluminum fin stack via a muscular plastic fan shroud. No additional fans can be mounted.
Arctic Cooling is one of the more well known manufacturers in the PC hardware industry, especially when it comes to smart cooling solutions. The company also manufactures power supplies and computer cases. The Swiss mark may be most known for the VGA coolers; ”Accelero Xtreme” and “Accelero Twin Turbo” which are available for more or less all the medium to high end graphics cards on the market.
We tested the Freezer 7 Pro Rev. 2 from Arctic Cooling, a CPU cooler with three U-shape heatpipes and a 92 mm fan. Let's check how it performs.
The max cooling capacity of the Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 Pro heatsink is listed at 300 Watts by the manufacturer; far, far and away beyond the heat output of any desktop processor. This time around Arctic have released a tower-style heatsink standing 159mm tall and weighing 893 grams. The CPU cooler comes with a small 50mm fan mounted to the baseplate in addition to a primary 120mm fan that rotates at 1350-900RPM.
I was not sent a sample of the original inception, which by Google's dating system on the reviews, it looks like the Freezer 13 came out at the end of last year. This version of the cooler is a bit different in both the shape of the fin body, and the design that gets stamped into each fin of the Freezer 13 versus the newer PRO release. The original design called for four 6mm diameter heat pipes that got surrounded by forty-five aluminum fins, and the lower set of 10 fins were smaller than the rest. On top of that, the Freezer 13 was only shipped with a 92mm fan to do all the work. All things considered, a 200W rating on that cooler is impressive to say the least.
When it's all said and done, Arctic Cooling's new Freezer 13 Pro, with it's innovative “Cross Blow” feature, is a worthy successor to the Freezer series of coolers. As of this writing, it only seems to be available from the Arctic Cooling website for around $55 US
