ARCTIC Freezer i35 RGB (ACFRE00096A)

narrow focus

The Arctic Freezer i35 RGB is an elegant-looking processor tower (16 cm high, 700 g weight) with support exclusively for Intel sockets: LGA 1151, 1200 and, which is especially cool, 1700. Moreover, you don’t need to request a mount for the latest Intel socket separately, it is guaranteed comes in a box. There is also an alternative version of the Freezer A35 for socket AM4, including one with 5V ARGB lighting.

rainbow mood

The RGB version is designed to connect to a 12-volt backlight connector on the motherboard or case hub. However, most modern motherboards have connectors of both types. The backlight breaks through the translucent fan blades. Alas, there is no bracket for installing a second turntable.

Quieter than water, lower than grass

But the 12 cm Arctic P-Fan itself is built on a durable hydrodynamic bearing. It starts from an ultra-low 200 rpm (most competitors only 450) and accelerates to 1700 rpm. Simply put, the cooler is able to provide both complete silence and efficient heat dissipation. In addition, the FDB-bearing made it possible to give the cooler a record 6-year warranty.

Asymmetrical shape

The ends of four copper heat pipes, painted black, are covered with a decorative plate. And the array of aluminium fins is slightly shifted towards the VRM of the motherboard, so as not to block even the first RAM slot. The Arctic Freezer i35 RGB comes with a tube of MX-5 thermal paste, which is rightfully considered one of the best on the market.
