  • Abstract:  Though the products share similar names these are very different in design and maximum heat load. With that in mind, we present Arctic Cooling's enthusiast class Freezer i30 (UCACO-FI30001-GB) and its quieter little brother the Freezer 13 (UCACO-FZ130-BL)...

  • Abstract:  A step up from the Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2, the Freezer 13 has 4 instead of 3 heatpipes and a larger heat dissipation area. The fan used is still a 92mm PWM, with a thermal pad and multilingual...

  • Abstract:  Air-based CPU coolers have progressed as far as to practically reach their limits. The manufacturers find it very hard now to improve their characteristics further, yet new coolers keep on being rolled out. Why? Well, some firms do hope they can releas...

  • Small, Cheap, Good performance, Works for both Intel and AMD
  • Mounting for AMD, No fan controller
  • 25$ and a much smaller size compared to the other high performing cpu coolers on the market makes this cpu cooler a winner. It performs very well even though it’s not the best on the market but for the price and for the size it performs extremely well...

  • At first look, we weren't expecting a good performance from the Arctic Cooling Freezer 13, mostly because all the high-performance CPU coolers we tested so far use one or two 120-mm fans, or even 140-mm ones. With a single 92-mm fan, the Freezer 13 loo...

  • The Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 is not a monster cooler. It's not going to wow you with it's incredible cooling performance. It's not going to run completely silently. What it is going to do is provide you with cheap cooling performance, in a compact si...

  • Now, it is important to note that the comparison Noctua costs close to twice as much as the mid $30 priced Freezer 13. When overclocked, that difference does indeed show up.With only the single fan that goes in one direction, the Freezer 13 is highly...

  • The Freezer 13 continues Arctic Cooling’s tradition of offering an affordable aftermarket cooling solution that performs just as well as some high-end coolers. The installation was easy and only took a few seconds to mount, but was sturdy and secure, ...

  • There's no sugarcoating it – other coolers perform better than the AF13. It isn't the worst, but it is certainly competent. Your overclocks should be ok with it. If you're looking for suicide runs and highest possible clocks for some short air benching...
