Arctic cooling revises it's old favorite for cheap builds.
The Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 and Freezer 64 are old favorites among silent PC and overclocking enthusiasts. The first one was targeted at LGA 775 processors, back from the Pentium 4 days, while the Freezer 64 was AMD compatible.
The new cooler adds compatibility with LGA 1366 and 1156, keeps the LGA 775 compatibility and unifies with the added support for AMD AM3/2/2+ and 939 sockets.
The price of this cooler is excellent at 21eur and the performance is well summarized by AC's charts:
It is an excellent cooler, probably the best at it's price range. While it can't compete with big towers like the TRUE and clones, it is an excellent choice for tight budgets and HTPCs. The fan used has fluid dynamic bearings and are among the best you can buy on the market. The performance delta and noise reduction more than justifies the extra cost over the stock cooler.
