Hi I need help with wiring. I bought this very fan but wanted to convert it into a desktop fan using a 12 volt adapter. I connected the red wire from the fan to the black and white wire from the adapter and the black wire from the fan to the solid black wire of the adapter.
It didn't work. Does this mean I have to find wiring to suit the other 2 wires? Blue and yellow? Please help me out.. thanks..
@keitholiverz I don't know if what you're trying to do is possible. Do a Google search for "4 pin cpu fan pinout" You will find a site with a color coded diagram. The problem you're having is that the blue wire is for control. That is telling the fan to spin and how fast to spin.
@Victormunro This installation video was take from Lesson 5 of our Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 overclocking videos. At this point the CPU was overclocked from it's stock speed of 2.66GHz to 3.7GHz. Before the cooler was replaced the idle temperature was 62c. With this replacement it dropped to 43c. The load temp had been 97c. It dropped to 75c.
I have an AMD Athlon II X4 620 (Socket AM3 938) at 2.6GHz, I am getting between 70 and 80 on my stock CPU, will this fit inside my Black Micro ATX Case and also will it fit my CPU?
@hpcbdvd I should have specified that. It's at Celsius, that's why I am looking for a new one, this is whilst playing games by the way. I get around 50 - 65 Celsius pretty much idle!
@archer10227 Before replacing the CPU cooler I would try re-applying the thermal compound between the cooler and the CPU. Can you tell me the model of Micro ATX case you have?
@archer10227 That case has a regular width so height won't be a problem. To make sure the cooler will work with your motherboard and not hit a ram slot or a heat sink on the motherboard do a Google search for your motherboard model number and Freezer 7 Pro. This is a very popular cooler. You should find people talking about using it on your model motherboard.
@hpcbdvd Alright thanks, I was just concerned with the height, I know it will work now. Thanks for your help and great video. I will most likely use this if I need help.
@AnimalKlips The Corsair Obsidian cases are excellent, but a little pricey. Take a look at Antec and Coolermaster cases. They are very good quality and much cheaper.
Is this the correct model for my pc? Im running a Dell 545 Intel Core Quad CPU Q8200 @ 2.33GHz, with 4gb Ram, and a 300watt Powerpack. My CPU cores are getting to 70-72c after a few hours in a game. Would it be worth me buying this?
@reeferboy2003 If your CPU is overheating I would first try re-applying the thermal compound. You may also find that the heat sink is covered with dust. You can blow this off with some compressed air.
@hpcbdvd Yeah i cleaned out my pc, the core are idling around 55-60c and under load after a few hours gaming about 73-75c. My processor is designed my 74c so i ordered some thermal compound (arctic 5) but iv also ordered one of these, my case looks too small to fit this in it though lol. With my gpu and PSU, there isnt much room, but we will see, il let you know what happens, even if it did just need some paste it cant do any harm having this aswell :) Thanks :)
@ksuowl2 It will be a little close to the rear exhaust fan but it will fit. Be sure to turn the cpu cooler so its fan is away from the exhaust fan. This will blow the hot air from the CPU right out the back of the case.
Hello I have just installed this onto my Sabertooth x58 motherboard with an i7 920 processer and I am only noticing a 5 degree chaange (lower) to about 39 degrees from 45-50 degrees with my basic Intel Heatsink and Fan. Does it take a bit of time to start working effectivley? Also the push pins are slightly different than in this video (prob because its over a year old ) :))
I have a question regarding this cooler's fan positioning. In the video you made sure to have your fan pointed towards the RAM sockets, ergo away from the exhaust fan (despite saying in the video that you would point it towards the rear exhaust fan). Now, I'm not trying to point out any mistakes on your part, but I would like to know why you did it this way. I currently have my fan for this cooler on the opposite side to the one you suggested and I'm now wondering whether I should change it....
@geordie2004 The CPU fan blows through the heat sink. The video does show the fan on the opposite side from the exhaust fan so the hot air from the CPU cooler will be sent on the back of the case.
@daleskill1 I think this is the 3rd request someone has put in the comments for an AMD guide. I would love to make another video with this model cooler showing it being installed onto an AMD CPU. Unfortunately the cooler in this video is in the computer I use for work and I can't take it out. If I were sent another cooler I would be happy to make a video showing how to install it onto an AMD CPU. This Intel install video is up to 74000+ views. Imagine the sales...
@hpcbdvd Arctic would send you a free one as this has got so many views. They would be happy for you to promote them! They would be happy with your clear instructions too..
Noticed no thermal paste, was it on the bottom of the heat sink already and you just need to peel of the paste segments or did you use a different thermal compound?
@Jean11114 go to newegg .c__o_m,type in search:GIGABYTE GA-H61M-D2P-B3 and look for the CPU fan header,and tell me if the fan power cable can be connect to the CPU fan header.
@PS3PSPXBOXWII When I opened it up I was surprised at the way it was packages and was glad I had the camera rolling. Its not about people being stupid. It is about being thorough and not skipping steps.
hmm mine came with bigger push-pins and it was annoying because they were more spread it took me some time to push them in the wholes :( and I don't understand why 3 of the heat pipes are like squashed it looks really ugly but otherwise the cooler is great with the stock Intel I was getting 75 degrees while playing games now its 50-55 I have intel i7 860 not the best cooler but for the money you pay you can't complain :) oh and I have a coolermaster storm scout and it fit perfectly its not big.
@SluzBag1993 Yes it is. It is compatible with Intel CPU LGA 1366 / LGA 1156 / LGA 1155 / LGA 775 and AMD CPU Socket AM3 / AM2+ / AM2 / 939 / 754. Probably compatible with AMD3+ as well.
cheers man i wasn't sure which way to face the fan because of my fan at the back is setup the same as u and i didnt know which direction the air comes out of this fan so thanks =)
little advice on attaching this to your AMD CPU, first attach the rungs to the board, attaching the rungs to the heatsink first, will cause issues in later attachments, then use the screws from the INTEL pack (they are longer and you wont need them for anything else) and place the heatsink over the CPU, then gently attach the rungs to the heatsink little by little, when you get a firm hold, attach the fan and plug it in, hopefully that made sense :D
Fantastic video. I watched it before I installed mine and all seems to have gone to plan. I'm so glad you added the unboxing too since I thought it was sealed like most stuff so would have probably taken a knife to it :D
@sini8080 I'd love to make more unboxing and installation videos like this for lots of different components. Then tens of thousands of more people will see these new videos and be inspired to buy and install them. Are there any hardware makers watching? I've hinted before but come on. Send me hardware. I will make the videos people, will watch them and buy the hardware in them. Customers get good hardware and a video tutorial on how to install them. You get sales and I get adense revenue.
@BUBLOOGABLOO This was made as a part of our AMD CPU overclocking videos but we edited it together so everyone on YouTube could see how to install this cooler.
Hi I'm using an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2 CPU fan, on an ASUS m4a785td-v EVO.
The fan seems to be stuck at around 1900 to 2000 RPM, when it's advertised to go from 900 to 2500 RPM with PWM. Surely, with Q-Fan disabled, the fan should be running at the full 2500RPM? All software including the BIOS reports it at around 1900 to 2000 RPM. SpeedFan doesn't change anything. Q-Fan is disabled. W/Q-fan, max 5V voltage is 6V. How can I change the 12V voltage and will this increase the fan speed?
@1337RussianCoDPlay3r It may be that the motherboard is misreporting the fan's speed. I would try upgrading to the latest BIOS revision and see if that solves this. I checked and that motherboard has had 18 BIOS revisions so far. It won't let me post the link to the updated BIOSs here but if you go to the Asus support site you can find them.
Thanks, very informative video. I just got one to go with my i5-760 as the stock cooler looks a bit pathetic. I also got some arctic cooling MX-4 thermal compound as the pre-applied stuff doesn't looks too good. Only problem for me is height, and as I have a side-mounting fan, according to my measurements, I will only have 2mm to spare at the top of the heatsink. Does the height include the copper heatpipes sticking out the top or not? If so it should be alright.
@brainiac777 I'm not sure but would say the height does include the ends of the heat pipes at the top. Arctic Cooling support would be able to tell you for sure.
@formuna101 I'd love to but unfortunately our Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2 is in use in one of our computers. It would be nice if we were sent another one so we could install it onto an AMD CPU and make a video of the process. Then another 50000+ people could watch it here on YouTube and be convinced to buy one of their own. Hint Hint, Arctic Cooling, Hint Hint.
tyhanks for the reply i did that .. i placed the cpu fan header into the PWR_FAN socket and it works fine ... however im sure it should be in the cpu_fan socket anyways its running now in the pwr_fan socket
@adilg89 It's possible the CPU isn't getting hot enough for the fan to spin. This is a feature found on a lot of motherboards to keep noise down and extend the life of the fan. What motherboard and CPU do you have?
ive bought this cpu cooler.. and atm the fan doesnt run.. yes i have put the cpu_fan connection in.. whenever i turn the computer on the fan shows an initial jolt.. then it doesnt spin.. once i spin it with my hand it spins fine.. .. any help appreciated}
@adilg89 I have read that pressing down on the center of the fan for a moment will get it working. If that doesn't do it, as a test you can connect the cable to another fan header just to see if maybe the CPU fan header on the motherboard is bad. If it still doesn't spin I would return it for a replacement.
Excellent video! I were wondering if this cooler would fit in my motherboard, since I can't remove the old backplate of the cpu. My old cpu cooler came with my motherboard.
@ThundeRMr89 It can matter because of the width of the case. It might be too narrow to handle the height of the cooler. That computer has a socket 775 motherboard and the width of the case looks wide enough. This cooler will work.
Thanks for fast reply! I think you might have misunderstood me. I wasn't to worryed about my case, and yes in fact it's 775 socket. I were worryed if Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2 could fit in my old backplate, to my old CPU-Cooler. I've checked everywhere but I cannot find any info about my old CPU-cooler, all I know is it came with my computer. Is it possible to tell if the push pens will fit in my old backplate?
@ThundeRMr89 This cooler comes with its own bracket that doesn't require a backplate. You remove any parts of your original cooler and the pins go through the holes in the motherboard to attach the bracket to the motherboard.
Question, when building my PC used crap PSU which was 650W. It was not good enough to supply my PC with power. I replaced with a 600W Corsair and it worked fine did some simple overclocks and I was happy everything was working. But decided to get temperature program to monitor what I get. My GPU with overclock fine, but CPU I get high temps with no overclock! Question is how much power does stock cooler use and you think this cooler which uses 130W will actually be fine with my current PSU.
@TIZ012 The cooler doesn't actually use 130W. The 130W is a rating of CPU it can cool. A 130W cooler can cool a CPU that uses 130W. What CPU do you have, what are the temps your getting at idle and under load? Idle being when the CPU isn't doing anything but running Windows and Load being when the CPU is in heavy use by a program like Prime95 that maxes out the CPU. It may be that the cooler isn't on correctly. Let me know the CPU model and the temps.
@mycuteboys Compared to most reviews, and what my Tjcase perfect temps are 72.5C, they are pretty bad under load. Playing games about 1-2 hours I get a high of 71C on the coolest core and 74C on the hottest core. Idle after I start up is an average of 39C and after playing games and I leave the PC to rest and do nothing for half an hour Idle is about 42C-43C. I try playing with my window closed and under room temperature of about 20C-24C. Room doesn't get any warmer than that. CPU:i5-760@2.8GHz
Good Video. What a simple install. My main worry is with having no back plate and the unit is 1.3 Lbs. that it doesn't stress/bend my mobo (?)
Is there a way to check if this cooler will block a RAM slot? I use all 4 . I can't tell from pics of my mobo and the coolers specs. I have a Gigabyte EP45-UD3L. I believe it should fit in my case which is a Coolermaster RC-690-KKN1-GP.
@paulvick2002 You may have a problem with your motherboard and the freezer 7 pro. I did a Google search for your motherboard model and freezer 7 pro and on a Corsair forum someone is saying the cooler covers the first RAM slot. Further down there is someone else with your motherboard and the freezer 7 pro and they don't mention a problem. The height of the RAM is something that you need to consider. If the RAM has an extra large heatsink that may make the difference.
@RubberBullet91 I don't think it will be a problem. I did a Google search for "ASUS M4A78LT-M freezer 7 pro" and no one is complaining about it not clearing the RAM slots. To the trolls, I know that is a double negative.
never use pre applied thermal paste, its that £0.50 shit you see on ebay (well have same temperatire readings) use Arctic silver 5 or arctic cooling MX-2 (MX-3 has poor spread so i dont use it) and apply about a small pea sized drop on the cpu's middle & apply cleaned heatsink.
@GamerFollower Actually the cooler already has the thermal compound applied. The video shows this about 56 seconds in. I'll put an annotation on the video to make it more noticeable.
Fantastic video and clear instructions. Nothing too much and nothing too little. With the highlighting features adding you make it clear as possible. Big thumbs up from me and now will feel comfortable buying and installing this fan.
Now that's what I call a video tutorial, thank you for the extremely detailed instructions! Two thumbs UP!

@SluzBag1993 Yes it is. It is compatible with Intel CPU LGA 1366 / LGA 1156 / LGA 1155 / LGA 775 and AMD CPU Socket AM3 / AM2+ / AM2 / 939 / 754. Probably compatible with AMD3+ as well.

FOR AMD USERS:
little advice on attaching this to your AMD CPU, first attach the rungs to the board, attaching the rungs to the heatsink first, will cause issues in later attachments, then use the screws from the INTEL pack (they are longer and you wont need them for anything else) and place the heatsink over the CPU, then gently attach the rungs to the heatsink little by little, when you get a firm hold, attach the fan and plug it in, hopefully that made sense :D

Fantastic video. I watched it before I installed mine and all seems to have gone to plan. I'm so glad you added the unboxing too since I thought it was sealed like most stuff so would have probably taken a knife to it :D
sini8080 9 months ago 3
@sini8080 I'd love to make more unboxing and installation videos like this for lots of different components. Then tens of thousands of more people will see these new videos and be inspired to buy and install them. Are there any hardware makers watching? I've hinted before but come on. Send me hardware. I will make the videos people, will watch them and buy the hardware in them. Customers get good hardware and a video tutorial on how to install them. You get sales and I get adense revenue.

Hi I'm using an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2 CPU fan, on an ASUS m4a785td-v EVO.
The fan seems to be stuck at around 1900 to 2000 RPM, when it's advertised to go from 900 to 2500 RPM with PWM. Surely, with Q-Fan disabled, the fan should be running at the full 2500RPM? All software including the BIOS reports it at around 1900 to 2000 RPM. SpeedFan doesn't change anything. Q-Fan is disabled. W/Q-fan, max 5V voltage is 6V. How can I change the 12V voltage and will this increase the fan speed?
1337RussianCoDPlay3r 10 months ago
@1337RussianCoDPlay3r It may be that the motherboard is misreporting the fan's speed. I would try upgrading to the latest BIOS revision and see if that solves this. I checked and that motherboard has had 18 BIOS revisions so far. It won't let me post the link to the updated BIOSs here but if you go to the Asus support site you can find them.

Thanks, very informative video. I just got one to go with my i5-760 as the stock cooler looks a bit pathetic. I also got some arctic cooling MX-4 thermal compound as the pre-applied stuff doesn't looks too good. Only problem for me is height, and as I have a side-mounting fan, according to my measurements, I will only have 2mm to spare at the top of the heatsink. Does the height include the copper heatpipes sticking out the top or not? If so it should be alright.
brainiac777 10 months ago
@brainiac777 I'm not sure but would say the height does include the ends of the heat pipes at the top. Arctic Cooling support would be able to tell you for sure.

Idle with the stock cooler which i replaced with the pro 7, temp 45C
On shogun total war on medium settings - 66C high 78C and very high - 80+ I have it set to shutdown at 80
The freezer pro idles at 28-30C medium - havent tested High - not tested Ver high - 48-50C
I love this cooler, its just amazing

tyhanks for the reply i did that .. i placed the cpu fan header into the PWR_FAN socket and it works fine ... however im sure it should be in the cpu_fan socket anyways its running now in the pwr_fan socket
will it be ok to leave it there?
adilg89 1 year ago
@adilg89 It's possible the CPU isn't getting hot enough for the fan to spin. This is a feature found on a lot of motherboards to keep noise down and extend the life of the fan. What motherboard and CPU do you have?

its an asus m4a79xtd

adilg89 1 year ago
@adilg89 I have read that pressing down on the center of the fan for a moment will get it working. If that doesn't do it, as a test you can connect the cable to another fan header just to see if maybe the CPU fan header on the motherboard is bad. If it still doesn't spin I would return it for a replacement.
hpcbdvd 1 year ago
@adilg89 check that the cable isn't blocking the fan from spinning

Dear, hpcbdvd,
Excellent video! I were wondering if this cooler would fit in my motherboard, since I can't remove the old backplate of the cpu. My old cpu cooler came with my motherboard.
Manufacturer: MSI - Model: Boston 1.0 - Chipset Intel P35/G33/G31 - Southbridge: Intel 82801GB (ICH7/R) - LPCIO: Fintek F71882F

ThundeRMr89 1 year ago
@ThundeRMr89 It can matter because of the width of the case. It might be too narrow to handle the height of the cooler. That computer has a socket 775 motherboard and the width of the case looks wide enough. This cooler will work.
hpcbdvd 1 year ago
@hpcbdvd Dear hpcbdvd,
Thanks for fast reply! I think you might have misunderstood me. I wasn't to worryed about my case, and yes in fact it's 775 socket. I were worryed if Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2 could fit in my old backplate, to my old CPU-Cooler. I've checked everywhere but I cannot find any info about my old CPU-cooler, all I know is it came with my computer. Is it possible to tell if the push pens will fit in my old backplate?
Thanks agian,
ThundeR
ThundeRMr89 1 year ago
@ThundeRMr89 This cooler comes with its own bracket that doesn't require a backplate. You remove any parts of your original cooler and the pins go through the holes in the motherboard to attach the bracket to the motherboard.

@hpcbdvd Dear hpcbdvd,
Thanks for making that clear :) The raison I asked is because I failed at removing the backplate of my old CPU-cooler, couldn't get it off.

Question, when building my PC used crap PSU which was 650W. It was not good enough to supply my PC with power. I replaced with a 600W Corsair and it worked fine did some simple overclocks and I was happy everything was working. But decided to get temperature program to monitor what I get. My GPU with overclock fine, but CPU I get high temps with no overclock! Question is how much power does stock cooler use and you think this cooler which uses 130W will actually be fine with my current PSU.
TIZ012 1 year ago
@TIZ012 The cooler doesn't actually use 130W. The 130W is a rating of CPU it can cool. A 130W cooler can cool a CPU that uses 130W. What CPU do you have, what are the temps your getting at idle and under load? Idle being when the CPU isn't doing anything but running Windows and Load being when the CPU is in heavy use by a program like Prime95 that maxes out the CPU. It may be that the cooler isn't on correctly. Let me know the CPU model and the temps.
mycuteboys 1 year ago
@mycuteboys Compared to most reviews, and what my Tjcase perfect temps are 72.5C, they are pretty bad under load. Playing games about 1-2 hours I get a high of 71C on the coolest core and 74C on the hottest core. Idle after I start up is an average of 39C and after playing games and I leave the PC to rest and do nothing for half an hour Idle is about 42C-43C. I try playing with my window closed and under room temperature of about 20C-24C. Room doesn't get any warmer than that. CPU:i5-760@2.8GHz

Good Video. What a simple install. My main worry is with having no back plate and the unit is 1.3 Lbs. that it doesn't stress/bend my mobo (?)
Is there a way to check if this cooler will block a RAM slot? I use all 4 . I can't tell from pics of my mobo and the coolers specs. I have a Gigabyte EP45-UD3L. I believe it should fit in my case which is a Coolermaster RC-690-KKN1-GP.
paulvick2002 1 year ago
@paulvick2002 You may have a problem with your motherboard and the freezer 7 pro. I did a Google search for your motherboard model and freezer 7 pro and on a Corsair forum someone is saying the cooler covers the first RAM slot. Further down there is someone else with your motherboard and the freezer 7 pro and they don't mention a problem. The height of the RAM is something that you need to consider. If the RAM has an extra large heatsink that may make the difference.

@RubberBullet91 I don't think it will be a problem. I did a Google search for "ASUS M4A78LT-M freezer 7 pro" and no one is complaining about it not clearing the RAM slots. To the trolls, I know that is a double negative.

never use pre applied thermal paste, its that £0.50 shit you see on ebay (well have same temperatire readings) use Arctic silver 5 or arctic cooling MX-2 (MX-3 has poor spread so i dont use it) and apply about a small pea sized drop on the cpu's middle & apply cleaned heatsink.
