The editors didn't like

  • High cost
  • Relatively loud on high setting

  • 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...
  • Expensive for most

  • Price (~400$)
  • Loud fan

  • 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
  • It is an expensive little unit.

  • Excellent performance!, Good manual, Well packed, Easy to mount, High quality
  • Price (~400$), Loud fan
  • This is an awesome performing watercooling setup, there is no doubt about it. I have to say though that the fan is to loud for my taste. Maybe if you have it well mounted in a case under a table the noise might be okey. I am quite picky with noises and...

  • The results speak for themselves. While the results for the Freezone when set to low werent really any better than a stock cooler, the system as a whole was silent. When the Freezone was set to hi, the results were incredibly different. The system no...

  • The CoolIT Systems Freezone CPU Cooler does a great job at what it claims to do, and that is chilling the CPU and providing better cooling than most stand alone water cooling kits without the installation and service hassle. If you remember my review o...

  • Low, adjustable noise; self contained with no maintaining necessary; impressive temps.
  • 92mm fan size instead of the more common 120mm and 92mm sizes; it is an expensive little unit.
  • All in all, the Freezone is an excellent water cooling unit. The low noise level combined with the low temps makes this an excellent purchase.

  • The plusses of this unit are obvious, from the moment you pick up the box or read the brochure, and I won’t reiterate them here. Suffice to say that a bad-ass looking, near silent, high efficiency liquid cooling unit that lives 100% inside your case...

  • Abstract:  We all know that water-cooling delivers more cooling power to the CPU than air-cooling does, but even water-cooling has an Achilles’ heel. It can’t achieve temperatures below the ambient room temperature. The Coolit Freezone gets around this limitatio...

  • My feelings for the Freezone cooler from CoolIT Systems are mixed at this point. There are so many great things that can be said about this cooing system. The idea behind the Freezone is revolutionary and the engineering of unit is solid. The implemen...
