Today we are testing the Freezer i30 CPU cooler from Arctic, which is targeted to Intel CPUs. It has a tower heatsink, one 120 mm fan, and four direct-touch 8 mm heatpipes. Check it out!

Arctic offers two coolers that are actually almost the same product: the Freezer i30 (that we are reviewing here) and the Freezer A30, which is the same cooler, but aimed at AMD CPUs.

The Freezer i30 comes in a compact white cardboard box, as shown in Figure 1.
