There's a huge selection of CPU coolers available on the market today, and choosing one can be confusing at best. The latest trend in CPU coolers is direct heatpipe cooling where the heatpipes contact directly onto the top of the CPU cooler. This system seems to work well, and with some cooler it does provide a better cooling solution.

We haven't taken a look at any CPU coolers in a while, so today I've got the Sunbeam Core Contact Freezer CPU Cooler for review. As the name suggests, the heatpipes are in direct contact with the top of your CPU to supposedly provide good cooling performance. The Core Contact Freezer is a lightweight cooler that appears well made and offers up some decent performance numbers when compared to other on the market today, so continue on to learn more about this cooler...
