The editors didn't like
High cost
Relatively loud on high setting
Very tight fit depending on case/configuration
Only a 92mm Fan
Large Temperature Delta from Idle to Load
Might Block Some Side Intake Fans or Case Door Latches
Pricey
Takes up a lot of motherboard real estate (IDE connections
RAM
Etc. are harder to access)
At maximum fan speed (43dBa) this cooler is not exactly "whisper quiet"
Freezone fan is 92mm in diameter (no option for a 120mm case fan exists)
Wont fit into a...

Performance/Price
Standoffs need fixing
Noisy on full speed
Poor performance on silent mode
Not compatible with 80mm rear fan cases
Fan Speed Adjustment Could Be Easier
A bit steep on the price
Not that quiet
The $400 price tag versus the cost of the rated CPU at the speed you want to overclock to
Since when was 92mm more popular than 120mm?
92mm fan size instead of the more common 120mm and 92mm sizes

I have mixed feelings on the freezone from CoolIT - The whole time I was reviewing it, my views on the Freezone were changing. Its performance at times was phenomenal, but at other test settings, it didnt blow me away. Even though the cooler outperfor...

For a product like this you really have to ask yourself what do you need it for, are you overclocking your system and pushing every last Mhz out of your CPU, or are you the casual user or maybe a gamer. It all depends what you need, a casual user wont...
At the end of the day, it is clear that the Freezone means business. At 3.5 GHz, the Freezone was only able to beat the Ultra-X by 3 C but it is important to remember a few things here. First, the Freezone only uses a 92mm fan, whereas the Ultra-X was ...

For the first water-cooled CPU cooler I have taken a look at I was extremely impressed. This system is very easy to install, it took me around 15 minutes to installed, which is a lot less than other systems that take up to an hour to install! The cool...
I cant say it in any simpler way. The does one awesome job of keeping the Core 2 Duo processor very, very cool. The thermoelectric coolers easily keep the blue water reservoirs very cold as well as the water flowing through them. The black heat sink ...
