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
  • Fan needs modded in order to mount the converter bracket
  • Difference between hi and low temperatures is no good at all
  • Very expensive compared to rival water cooling kits
  • 92mm fan mount not universally used
  • Does require some slight modification
  • No digital temperature display
  • No 4pin to 3pin adapter provided for pump power
  • Some noise
  • Price (~400$)
  • Loud fan
  • Expensive
  • 92mm fans

  • 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.

  • Abstract:  The Freezone is CoolIT’s first crack at the CPU cooling market, and it’s definitely unconventional. The Freezone is an all-in-one, zero maintenance, pre-filled liquid cooling kit that uses air-cooled thermoelectric coolers with an in-built pum...

  • Abstract:  Pretty much every PC enthusiast will agree that a PC cant be too cool or too quiet. While we might argue about the best way to make it happen, cooler and quieter is a worthwhile goal that we cant afford to ignore. Many folks might consider liquid co...

  • Lower temperatures than with stock cooling, Detailed installation instructions, Big drop in noise output
  • Airflow obstruction, Case not cooled as much as CPU
  • The Freezone CPU cooler combines the best things about other cooling mechanisms, while producing as little noise as possible. The combination of a peltier, liquid pipes and an active 120mm fan to cool the massive heatsink, reduced our CPU well below wh...

  • The fundamental limit of any liquid-cooling system is how quickly it can dissipate heat from the coolant, a process that weve found is best achieved by using as big a radiator as possible. So although the use of TECs to conduct heat into the heatsink ...

  • Excelente rendimiento, Compacto, Fácil de instalar, Sistema cerrado, no necesita mantención, Relativamente bajo ruido a potencia media
  • Ruidoso a máxima potencia, Problemas para instalar en gabinetes con extractores toolfree, Ventilador no estándar 92mm, Hay soluciones que ofrecen similar enfriamiento por menos precio
  • El CoolIT Freezone es una solución muy interesante. Si hacemos memoria, en un pasaje del review del Amanda TEC, les dijimos que seguramente los Peltiers comenzarian a tomar un puesto más relevante en el escenario de la refrigeración, y que...
