ARCTIC Freezer i11 CPU Cooler for Intel, 150W Cooling Capacity, 3 Direct Touch Heatpipes, <23dBA Fan Noise

Pros: Quiet, Light, Easy to install, comes with MX-4 thermal paste! Stock cooler on i7 7590 ran 40c + idle and 80c+ on Aida 64. This cooler it was 29c and never over 50c on Aida64! Great cooler.

Cons: Base of cooler that interfaces with the CPU is smaller than heat spreader on CPU, but at least it covers where the die inside is.

Great overclocker for the money!
