GlacialTech Igloo 5760 CPU Cooler Review

Cooling/CPU Cooling by stefan @ 2010-07-25

GlacialTech have successfully build a very cheap, easy to install and good looking little CPU cooler; it is mostly intended for environments that do not imply overclocking. In the performed tests, however, even if on the package it was listed that the i5 750 CPU is supported with its stock 2.66GHz frequency, I could do 3.2GHz without problems at all and with decent temperatures too, in both IDLE and Full Load.

Packaging

Packaging:

The Igloo 5760 CPU cooler from GlacialTech comes in a cardboard box which matches the colors of the product; on the frontal part we can see the main product features represented by graphical icons, the product full name, a large photo of the CPU cooler and the compatible sockets are also specified:

On one of the laterals, we get to see what CPUs are tested and supported (GlacialTech lists i5 processors up to i5 750, which we will use in our tests, but in overclocking environment), but also the technical specifications on the right side:

The box contents are carefully packed inside, to avoid damages during transport:

Both the bundle and the cooler itself can be found in a transparent plastic support:

As a bundle, we can find in separate bags back plates for each socket, the retention mechanism for AMD sockets and fixing screws. The user manual explains the installation process, step-by-step:

All the back plates can be glued properly on the side that makes direct contact with the motherboard to allow an easier installation:

From left to right, we can see the LGA1156, LGA775 and LGA1366 back plates:
