Cooling - Air

Intel CPUs produce a lot of waste heat, and without a sufficient cooler will overheat, shutting down or damaging your system. It’s critical therefore to choose an appropriate CPU cooler.

This category lists a huge variety of air-coolers for Intel Core, Pentium and Celeron CPUs. Before you start browsing it’s important to know what CPU you have, as each generation of Intel CPUs uses different processor sockets and mounting mechanisms. Check your component documentation or our buyers guide to find out which sort of CPU cooler you should be looking for.

It's also a good idea to check the dimensions of the air-cooler you're interested in versus your case, as some air-coolers are too large to fit in all cases.
