Antec KUHLER H2O 620
Why would you pay attention to it: KUHLER H2O 620 is aggressive as its brother but more compact (it
includes a 120mm fan, its radiator is 27mm thick), and cheaper. 620 uses the
third generation copper cold plate of the same Antec, it’s also easy to install
and maintain. 620 pump has 50 thousand hours operating cycle, with 3 year
warranty, which means cooling device by liquid will last forever.
Who should use it: who want an efficient cooling device by liquid.
Socket compatibility: Intel LGA775/1155/1156/1366/2011; AMD AM2/2+/3/3+
Noise is rated: 36dBA at 2000rpm
Arctic Cooling Freezer i30
Why would you pay attention to it. It seems people in Artic COOLING have been there since the
invention of thermometer; of course they knew two things about keeping your
Intel CPU cool, if Freezer i30 is any indication about their proficiency. A
120mm PWM fan (ARCTIC F12 PWM), 4 copper heat pipes contact in direct, 48
aluminum grilles, and an Artic Cooling MX-4heat sink glue tube to help more.
Who should use it: who owns Sandy Bridge or Sandy Bridge-E looking for a cheap,
efficient combination of heat sink and CPU fan.
Socket compatibility: Intel LGA1155/1156/2011
Noise rated:
0.3 Sone at 1350rpm.
ARCTIC Freezer 64 PRO
Why would you pay attention to it. Freezer 64 PRO is the cold air flow for every socket of AMD desktop
processors. You can add Freezer 64 PRO in any direction, so you do not have to
worry about spaces with high RAM heatsinks and you can arrange cooling
equipment to create the best air flow for the case.
Who should use it. Anyone has an AMD CPU and wants a powerful, flexible and quiet
cooling device, with reasonable price.
Compatibility socket: AMD AM2/2+/3/3+, 754, 939, FM1
Noise is rated: 0.5 Sone
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Why would you pay attention to it. Please turn Hyper 212 EVO and test it’s base. Thanks to CDC
technology (Continuous Direct Contact), which was patented by Cooler Master, it
looks like a slab of solid brass turned out to be 4 heat pipes, entirely made
by machine to contact directly with CPU to have incredibly effective heat transfer.
This is a great cooler with a small amount of money.
Who should use it: those looking for incredible performance with cheap price.
Socket compatibility: Intel LGA775/1155/1156/1366/2011; AMD AM2/2+3/3+, FM1
Noise is rated: 9 to 36dBA
Cooler Master Hyper 612 PWM
Why would you pay attention to it. A full copper plate and 6 heat pipes dispel heat from CPU and lead
them to an array of big aluminum heat sink foils. A similar big 140mm PWM fan
will blow heat away. Cooler Master also includes a fan frame, which makes it
easy to install the second fan (not included) for heat sink if desired.
Who should use it: the intelligent users who like CPU cooling device from a
manufacturer that has implemented the CPU cooling for a long time.
Socket compatibility: Intel LGA775/1155/1156/1366, AMD AM2/2+3/3+, FM1
Noise is rated: 9 to 36dBA
