The Artic Freezer 7 was used by me for cooling an i5 2500 and an i7 2600 CPU. The CPU cooler has a relatively low price. If it can be properly installed, it also cools quite well the temperatures down. Unless of course this is no reason for devaluation. However, there was at the first assembly problems, because the black, herunterzudrückenden pins passing through the white interval Stücker which also serve as a support for the black, herunterzudrückenden pin, fit with extreme violence in the hole provided, at least if the whole also to hold. In confined spaces, the holder is a "NO-GO", therefore not applicable. At best, the radiator can even be mounted fairly relaxed if you have not yet installed the motherboard. This is especially _auch_ the case when the base plate is already mounted (which you should anyway only try, if the motherboard is actually removed) because the white stockings and the black pins from the cooling fins totally obscured (no space for an assembly by the finger). The second attempt at installation (I have the i5 i7 CPU replaced by) was even worse, because somehow the pins were bent now somewhat worn out or at the bottom. Therefore - prefer to invest more money for a simple-to-install coolers, and no cheap junk from China fit (my opinion).
