CPU Cooler help

[trum_0909]

I have i5 3570k processor on my pc, not overclocked. My temps on idle are 33-37 C and on load 60-70 C on a stock cooler

I just bought Arctic Freezer 7 pro Rev. 2 for 18 bucks + free shipping, and I was wondering if it will do a better job than the stock cooler????

I know that it has Arctic MX-2 thermalpaste preapplied so that part is already better than the stock one

Yes the Arctic Freezer 7 Pro is better than the stock one, not the best but for that price its fine.
It's quieter, has direct contact heatpipes, and it's fairly easy to install.
Here is a review and they compare it to other coolers: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Arctic-Cooling-Freezer-7-Pro-Rev-2-CPU-Cooler-Review/1164/1

Well i know that its not the best one, I would get Hyper 212 EVO but my Azza Solano 1000 case can only fit under 150mm and Hyper Evo is 159mm so i bought Freezer
