MSI Core Frozr L CPU cooler review - Introduction

MSI Core Frozr L
A terrific cooler that remains incredibly silent

We test and review the MSI Core Frozr L processor cooler. MSI is placing this new processor cooler series in the market, likely made with the same designers and fabbing plant that manufacturers their TwiNFrozr GPU cooler. The end results of the first ever MSI processor cooler even baffled us, as it is pretty darn good. MSI actually is releasing two models, the Core Frozr L and Core Frozr XL which coems with a customizable RGB led.

You know, there really aren't any bad performing coolers being produced anymore. For every segment and budget you can find something you need. The market stabilized and within the entire range and scope of heatpipe based coolers there's a certain comfort zone with a corresponding product available. As a result, most of the coolers available on the market are all adequate at the very least. There are always exceptions to this, there's a handful of manufacturers out there that offer the really interesting stuff, the kit and gear that really stand out from the cooling crowd, the hardware you and me crave and need so badly... that is in the enthusiast domain of gaming hardware. 

The MSI Core Frozr L has a relatively small design yet offers super nice cooling capacity making it ideal for use in ATX based desktop systems and game PCs. The cooler supports all popular Intel sockets, for AMD it is even AM3+ and all new AM4 compatible. So the future Zen processors can be chilled with this unit as well.

Have a peek at the Core Frozr L model tested below; with a normal footprint and lovely looks. Good to know is that this is one of the most silent (air based) coolers we have ever tested, even with that nasty to cool Core i7 4790K that we throw at it, and yes .. with plenty of overclocking potential to spare. All that for just 49 USD as well.
