The Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro (Rev. 2) performed very well in our tests for a cooler at this price point and it certainly does make a strong upgrade option when compared to the Intel reference cooler. It will be perfect for users who want a little extra performance out of their system with a mild overclock or for users wanting a cooler running processor. The devilishly simple installation process also makes it appropriate for less-advanced users who may not have installed a CPU cooler before.
Unfortunately we weren't able to test the noise produced by the cooler quantitatively but it was almost inaudible over the rest of our test system and is certainly among the quietest of coolers we've tested.
The combination of impressive performance and decent build quality is a steal as it can be had for a mere £16 in the UK right now. The Freezer 7 Pro certainly isn't going to break the bank and is within reach of even the most budget-minded customers.
KitGuru Says: The Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro is a great cooler for the price and is a worthwhile upgrade from the standard Intel cooler.
Even cheaper than the Thermaltake Contac 29 very nice indeed ! this will be a good seller I would imagine
Awesome little cooler, the original was brilliant, such a bargain really considering the £40+ asking price for most now in the UK. this and the Contact 29 seem the best deals.
Great review Henry, nice pictures and the product is very good
shame we didnt get a head to head with the contac 29, id love to know how they both hold up together. same price,. well almost.
Nice review Henry, looks like a nice little cooler. very cheap which is always good to see
Its hard to justify spending £60 on a cooler unless you need to overclock very high. and most people don’t. this is ideal.
Great review, seems like a perfect first step up from intels reference mounts.
ideal cooler for a newb or someone wanting a very cheap product. performance is much better than the price would suggest
I had the first version of this cooler and it was very impressive. so easy to fit too in a rush.
Excellent design and such a cheap asking price. the first one was around for a long time, I see no reason why this one wouldnt be also.
Found this site, and it looks great on my iPad, so clean and fast loading !
Nice review, very helpful for a purchase I have coming up soon.
I used the original in several systems and got good results with them. It’s good to see Rev2 performs well also
Very well written review Mr Butt 🙂 a few things id change such as fan support, but for the price, its impossible to fault.
Good review, as far as I know this has been around for a while but still holds up there quite well.
One thing that got me thinking while reading through it was this… see that pic looking at the cooler from the south east corner of board? Yea, well how does if at all, does taller RAM modules affect cpu cooling performance? Taller DIMMs could potential interrupt airflow into the fan and thus the heat dissipation of the cooler? That could make a pretty interesting read if that theory holds true 😀
