INTRODUCTION

Due to the fact that RWL is targeted mostly at overclockers and enthusiasts we usually skip on reviewing entry level cooling solutions for the Masses. For that reason almost all of the LGA1366 CPU Coolers we have ever reviewed are mostly aimed at that segment of the market. However after public demand we have decided to bring to you a series of low-cost entry level CPU Coolers for the i7 platform, coolers that are ment for people who just want something slightly better than the bundled cooler but also extremely affordable. Our first solution of this kind comes from Glacialtech and promises good performance with a very low price tag and minimum noise level.
GlacialTech Inc. was established in June 2001 by a team of 8 world-class researchers (PHDs) and three factory owners. Its technological areas of expertise include specialized thermal theory, soldering and mounting technologies, mechanism design, test and verification environment build-up and advanced conduct material development. As a total thermal solution provider, GlacialTech is committed to using lighter weight materials, lower noise and lower manufacturing cost to deliver superior cooling solutions. All this has brought about the increased value for our customers with lighter system board loading, quiet working environment and optimal price performance. Price performance, noise performance and weight performance are our three cooling design philosophy. Having acquired ISO 9001 and 14001, GlacialTech commits itself to using green materials for its products designs and to perfecting green manufacturing processes in manufacturing its products. GlacialTech offers two kinds of standard and customized cooling solutions. The standard cooling solutions deal with the CPU coolers for desktop and server PC system, PC case fan, VGA coolers and other accessory cooling products. The customized cooling solutions are furnished with applications for specialized PC barebones system, notebook, consumer products and telecommunication products.
At Real World Labs we have had the opportunity to review quite a big range of products made by Glacialtech and up until today we have never been even remotely dissapointed by the quality and performance of their products. So todays product by Glacialtech is their latest CPU Cooler, the Igloo 5610 Plus Silent which at first glance looks like the smallest after market Tower type cooler ever manufactured. That aside quality-wise it is very good and it also comes packed with two 92mm fans so you can place them in push and pull configuration for maximum results. Still like i said above this is not a product in anyway targeted torwards enthusiasts or overclockers.
