Summer is almost here, and if you're not living in a cold area, or you're not using conditioned air, your computer may have to be prepared for another hot season, especially if you're overclocking your CPU. Since installing air conditioning equipment may not be that good for your health, grabbing the beauty below and installing it in your computer is a much better idea, in my opinion!

Arctic Cooling Freezer XTREME

Coming from Arctic Cooling, the Freezer XTREME is a cooler measuring 130 (L) x 100 (W) x 131 (H) mm, that features no less than 102 aluminum fins, four double-sided copper heatpipes, and a 120mm fan placed in the middle of this great twin tower design. The fan spins between 800 and 1500RPM, so you won't have to pump up the music's volume when the CPU is at full load. Depending on the fan's speed, the air flow can go between 35.7 to 60.7 m3/h.

With a weight of 608 grams, the Freezer XTREME is compatible with virtually all LGA 775, Socket 939, AM2 and AM2+ processors, since Arctic Cooling claims that 160 Watts is the cooling capacity available, but no processor for these sockets was able to reach that far yet.

At last, you should know that this new cooler arrives with preapplied MX-2 thermal compound, being backed up by a lifetime warranty(I guess that doesn't cover the fan too...), but it's not yet available. Expected to arrive in July, the Arctic Cooling Freezer Xtreme CPU cooler will be priced around $40, so there's plenty of time to set aside those money...just be sure not to fry your CPU until then!
