ID-COOLING introduces two new side-flow CPU coolers designed to manage high thermal loads while minimizing interference with system memory. The FROZN A620 SLK and FROZN A620 PRO XE BLACK models arrive with distinct cooling architectures tailored for different build constraints. Both units target processors with thermal design power ratings up to 260W, ensuring compatibility with modern high-performance desktop components.
New dual-tower coolers target 260W TDP with memory-friendly designs
The FROZN A620 SLK utilizes an asymmetric heatpipe layout to clear memory slots on crowded motherboards. It pairs a 120mm AF-120 SLIM fan with a 120mm AM-120-K fan to drive airflow through the fin stack. The cooler measures 133 by 122 by 160mm and weighs 1300g, providing a substantial cooling surface area for its class.
Spec comparison
| Spec | FROZN A620 SLK | FROZN A620 PRO XE BLACK |
|---|---|---|
| Dimensions | 133 x 122 x 160mm | 129 x 142 x 157mm |
| Weight | 1300g | 1100g |
| Heatpipes | 6x 6mm copper (asymmetric) | 6x 6mm powder-coated copper (soldered) |
| Max Fan Speed | 2500 rpm | 2000 rpm |
| Price (Japan) | 7980 JPY (around $49.73) | 6980 JPY (around $43.50) |
The FROZN A620 PRO XE BLACK takes a different approach with soldered heatpipes and a reinforced fin lock structure for improved thermal transfer. It uses a single 120mm XF-120S-K fan that operates between 300 and 2000 rpm to maintain quiet operation. This model is slightly more compact at 129 by 142 by 157mm and weighs 1100g, offering a balance of performance and space efficiency.
Both coolers support a wide range of sockets, including AMD AM5 and AM4, as well as Intel LGA1954, 1851, 1700, 1200, and 115x platforms. The SLK model features six 6mm copper heatpipes in an asymmetric arrangement, while the PRO XE BLACK uses six powder-coated copper pipes soldered directly to the base. These structural differences define their respective performance profiles and installation requirements.
Sales begin in Japan on June 24, 2026, with the FROZN A620 SLK priced at 7980 JPY (around $49.73). The FROZN A620 PRO XE BLACK is available for 6980 JPY (around $43.50). These prices reflect the entry-level positioning of the coolers in the Japanese retail market.
The announcement marks ID-COOLING's expansion into the high-TDP side-flow cooler segment with specific focus on memory clearance and thermal efficiency. The dual-tower design ensures adequate heat dissipation for demanding workloads without compromising component compatibility.
