Pros: Silent, works great with LGA2011

Cons: None

Pros: None, inspite of hearing so much about Arctic.

Cons: This is the worst cooler I have ever seen. Mounting was well near impossible, with a very high possibility of siding on the thermal interface and cleaning it out. Works very much below the the stock cooler on an AMD FX8350.

Other Thoughts: Shall think half a dozen times before buying an Arctic product again, if at all.

Pros: Very easy install.
30C drop in temp under full load.
No more throttling using AIDA 64 FPU stress test.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: I was thinking of going with a 120mm fan but decided to go with this cooler instead since I don't have a case with a cutout behind the motherboard to install a backplate. Install was very easy. Even though it uses a 92mm fan it moves a lot of air, it's pretty quiet, and keeps my 4770k cool. Over clocked it to 4.5GHz already w/o any issues.

Pros: Great design, ball bearing fan for continuous on, easy to install. Everything about this fan/ heat-sink I liked.

Cons: Once again with an Arctic freezer cpu fan it would not work correctly and gave me BSOD! Could not believe it. Tried every conceivable fix with bios to turning off settings- you name it.

Other Thoughts: Bummed!!! Wanted this one to work. AARRRGGG!

Pros: Keeps my Ivy Bridge I5 3570K at 28C Idle and no more than 65C at torture test P95. Actually it only hit 65 for a flash and stayed around 60C. These are great temps because the I5 Ivy 3570K has a Tj max of 105C. Very quiet and so easy to install. The install is so nice and easy, best I have ever seen. Anybody giving this lower then 5 eggs needs to go buy a mac.

Cons: NONE!!!

Other Thoughts: I love this cooler, Artic knows how to make a fantastic cooler and super easy to install.

Pros: extremely quiet in my HTPC and keeps it cool 24/7

Cons: watch size requirements around the proc and height, some may run into issues. I cannot use the 4th ram slot with this heatsink but 12GB is enough for my HTPC

Pros: NONE

Cons: USELESS

Other Thoughts: This cooler will not clear even low profile ram, cannot be used with any AMD mini mo boards. DO NOT BUY IT WILL NOT FIT. Now I am past the return window, stuck with it (paper weight?). Tried it on an Asus and Biostar mini, will not clear low profile ram. Same outcome. Product is not for AMD mini mo bo's. I would like to thank Artic for their complete lack of concern for their customers. Absolutely no disclosure. Anything for a sale folks?

Pros: Quiet and seems to cool the CPU Good.

Cons: Not easy to install. Had to have my Co-worker work the screwdriver while I held the bracket. I was trying to decide between the Coolmaster Hyper 212 and this cooler (both coolers were at the same price at the time). If I had it to do over again... I would the Coolmaster, but what is done is done. Not a Bad Cooler just a little difficult to install.

Other Thoughts: Cooler rocking on top of a AMD 965 Black

Pros: Very quiet, just what you want. Blows efficiently inside and is way better than the stock cooler for the i7 3770k processor. Wont have to worry about the noise as thats the only thing I feared about any of my CPS cooling equipment. Very easy to install for INTEL motherboards. Only 2 screws needed to mount the heat sink part. And it uses plastic spikes instead of screws when anchoring the actual heatsink to the motherboard.
Comes with a pre-sprayed layer of thermal paste so no need to buy that extra.

Cons: Bulky when placed inside the motherboard but thats necessary if you want efficient air cooling; otherwise water cooling would be best if there is little space inside your tower. Also, you will need a LOOOOONNNNGGGG small screwdriver to insert the two screws for the heatsink.

Other Thoughts: Would have been nice if the heat sink could have been clipped on instead of using screws on. also, it would have been nice also if the thermal compound was in a small bottle of its own or some sort of pad so you can place it evenly on the cpu processor instead of it having come prepackaged on the bottom of the heatsink.

Pros: Easy Install, -15 to -20 degrees temperature drop. QUIET!!!

Cons: Cooling fan snaps on, not really a con, but I was concerned when I removed it to get to one of the screws that secured it to the CPU.

Other Thoughts: Great product i highly recommend
