i always liked Arctic products - great bang for the buck. for my nephew's birthday i'm building him a rig with my old office gigabyte z170x soc force/i-7 6700k/RX 480 this will match perfectly. tho' if he wants to oc more the aio is on him.

before you buy my experience with the arctic freezer pro 13 is that it was a great performer for it's price but the plastic mounting kit on both my friends broke in about the year mark so before you get it make sure the mounting mechanism is not plastic !

These "passive" design people are all crazy. Why in the world would I want to have a heating body without airflow to dump the heat out of the case asap? Passive GPUs, now CPUs...pure insanity.....

I've used more Arctic coolers than I can keep track of and I've never had a mount break.

So far 2 on 2 and the worse part was that they where in both cases recomended by me as good value cooler witch they really are just the plastic mount failed twice if they had a metal mount i have no doupt both of em would have been goin strong till today
