Arctic will roll out Socket LGA1700 cooler mounting kits in October

Another CPU cooler manufacturer is launching mounting kits for the upcoming Alder Lake processors. This time around, Arctic has announced that it will launch CPU cooler mounting kits for the Intel 12th Gen “Alder Lake” desktop CPUs, with availability starting in October. 

As the launch of Alder Lake approaches, some CPU cooler manufacturers have already announced that they will launch mounting kits for the new CPUs. Besides Arctic, Noctua and Phanteks had already stated they will release mounting upgrades for the LGA1700 socket.

All Freezer 34 models, Liquid Freezer II coolers, Freezer i13 X coolers and the Freezer 50 will be compatible with the new mounting kit, which you will need if you are upgrading to Alder Lake, as these processors will move over to the new LGA1700 socket. Future CPU coolers will include this mounting kit out of the box.

The Arctic mounting kit for Alder Lake CPUs is coming out in mid-October for a service fee of €5.99. However, if you have proof of purchase for an Intel 12th Gen processor, then you won't have to pay this fee. Arctic has also announced that its upcoming i35 A-RGB cooler will ship with the compatible mounts for the Alder Lake platform.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
