Freezer 36 - Single-tower CPU cooler with push-pull, two pressure-optimised 120 mm P fans, fluid dynamic bearing, 200-1800 rpm, 4 heatpipes, incl. MX-6 thermal compound

Absolutely fantastic cooler, easy to install and took my temps from 60-70°C idle and 90+ under load to 30~ idle and 70~ under load. Fits easily into my Asrock a520m kv2 in an NZXT h440 case. Pretty quiet too. (For those curious, I'm using a 5700x3D) One note, a lot of online installation guides feature grey spacers that go on to the screw holes for the am4 backplate, they didn't arrive with my cooler. I recommend scanning the online manual QR code on the box for instructions on mounting the cooler onto an am4/am5 board.

I simply have no words for this cooler. It’s just amazing. At this great price? £20 for a high quality great looking product like this one? At first I was skeptical because of the price, then I remembered that arctic are a great company, so I decided to give it a try. Went from 58C idle on my cpu to 32C idle. No joke. I am using a ryzen 7 5800x3d and it cools it no problem. 5/5 Great buy.

I decided to swap out my nzxt aio because the rgb had started to do its own thing and the pump had started making a strange noise. I also swapped the case fans out for some arctic p12 & p14 pro at the same time. These two things have dropped the temps by an astonishing amount that im slightly amazed. Im running a Ryzen 7 5800X, a cpu known to run on the hot side. My idle temps have gone from between 50/55 to between 36/40. I haven’t run any stress temps but the temps running Battlefield peak at 70/74 for a few seconds while loading and then drop to 58/60 while playing. I had my radiator mounted on the front of the case so I can only assume it wasn’t helping with air flow and the two front 140 fans are playing as much a part as the cooler its self. It doesn’t overhang the ram slots either (im running vengeance rgb pro) and fits in an NZXT H510 Flow case without any issues. Build quality is excellent and the fan mounting is so much easier than those stupid clips. For the money it seems a great buy.

Great cooler for the price, keeps my 5600x at 60°c

Fans are good and runs quietly. It’s bigger then I expected but does a good job in keeping my CPU cool

Absolutely love it. Keeps my i5 13400f nice and cool. 28 degrees on idle and in the low 50's while gaming. The fan mount "invisibly" on the cooler. I absolutely love the fact that I got rid of those pesky wires 😆 it has dense finstack. I was a bit skeptical swapping from an ID cooling with 7 hestpipes to a cooler with only 4, but it does the job admirably. The push pull system with 2 fans works like a dream. Obviously you can stick any fans on it, just use the screws provided

It does the job it's meant to but installation was very tricky. I've built a few PCs but never have I had to spend an hour (and with 3 graze injuries) to install a CPU cooler! The instructions were simple to follow. Installed the mounting and the fans attached very easily to the heatsink at the end. However, fixing the heatsink over the CPU seemed like an almost impossible task. The screws were a few millimetres short and it was very difficult to screw them into the mounting brackets. At lot of pressure and brute force is needed. Even then, the screws started to lose their threading near the tip as they kept slipping out of the bracket fixing hole. I honestly thought that at the end of it all my CPU and motherboard would have been damaged. Thank goodness for Gigabyte B550 ultra durable motherboard. Thankfully it still worked! I don't look forward to having to replace the CPU compound.

I have to say that I am impressed by this cpu cooler. Had 2700x with noctua nh-d15s then custom loop later it was upgraded to 5700x3d with this cooler as I was fed up with water in my pc and I have to say it does beat the noctua price to performance by miles. One downside when I had custom loop I had backplate which is different than standard am4 which was not designed for this cooler to be installed as it requires original am4 that I didn't have any longer. Almost gave and returned because screws wouldn't catch so it wouldn't mount properly but.... I went to wickes and bought M4 machine screws and now everything fits perfectly. The cooler itself is great! For that price, you can't beat it. Before I was thermalright fun then more expensive noctua now arctic is my favourite brand when comes to fans and coolers. While gaming and benchmarking I can barely hear it. Worth the price and I Hooe arctic will keep it up with those incredible fans and coolers. Cheers 🍻

Super Cooler

Der ARCTIC Freezer 36 hat mich wirklich überzeugt. Für einen Single-Tower-CPU-Kühler liefert er dank Push-Pull-Setup mit zwei 120-mm-P-Lüftern eine überraschend hohe Kühlleistung. Selbst unter Last bleiben die Temperaturen stabil, und das bei angenehm niedriger Lautstärke. Die druckoptimierten P-Lüfter laufen sehr ruhig und lassen sich über PWM (200–1800 rpm) fein steuern. Im Idle sind sie kaum hörbar, unter Last wird die Drehzahl zwar höher, aber nie störend laut. Das hydrodynamische Gleitlager sorgt für einen gleichmäßigen Lauf ohne Nebengeräusche. Auch die Verarbeitung ist top: 4 Heatpipes, sauberer Kontakt zur CPU und eine sehr einfache Montage für Intel & AMD. Ein großes Plus ist außerdem, dass MX-6 Wärmeleitpaste direkt beiliegt – qualitativ hochwertig und mehr als ausreichend. Fazit: Der ARCTIC Freezer 36 bietet eine starke Kühlleistung, leisen Betrieb und ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Ideal für Gaming-PCs und leistungsstarke CPUs, auch ohne direkt auf eine große AIO setzen zu müssen. Klare Kaufempfehlung!

Compré el ARCTIC Freezer 36 (negro) para mejorar las temperaturas de mi CPU frente al disipador de serie, y el cambio se nota desde el primer día. La refrigeración es más estable en carga (juegos y tareas exigentes) y, además, el ruido es bastante contenido para el rendimiento que ofrece. El acabado en negro queda muy bien en un setup limpio y da sensación de producto sólido.

Qualité : excellente finition, inspire confiance dès la prise en main. Esthétique : design sobre et discret, s’intègre facilement dans un setup moderne. Refroidissement : très efficace grâce aux 4 heatpipes et aux deux ventilateurs P120 mm en push-pull. Silence : fonctionnement silencieux même en charge, grâce au roulement fluidodynamique. Praticité : fourni avec la pâte thermique MX-6, prêt à l’emploi. Compatibilité : format monotour peu encombrant, adapté à de nombreux boîtiers. 👉 En résumé : un ventirad de grande qualité, discret et esthétique, qui combine efficacité et silence avec un excellent rapport qualité/prix.

En oerhört bra kylare, enkel och montera och gör sitt jobb bra. Har haft problem med contact frame som inte ger nog med kontakt för att cpun ska tryckas på plats, kan dock ha vart en dålig tryckt contact frame för lga1700.. Men kylarn är perfekt och med tanke på att den supporterar en rad olika socket versioner för intel och amd så är det ännu bättre. Du slipper också clipsen för att hålla fläktarna på plats emot kylarn vilket är en stor bonus. Enkelt att byta ut fläktarna också så vill du ha dina egna rgb fläktar eller noctua fläktar så är det absolut inga problem o byta ut till.
