CPU coolers deals: the real ones
We check UK prices for every CPU cooler we've reviewed every hour, and compare each one with what it has actually sold for, not the shop's “was” price. One only shows here as a deal if it's genuinely cheaper than usual.
Price history is still building: drops show here once we've tracked a price for a week

Before you buy CPU coolers in a sale
How do you know a deal is real?
We check UK prices for every CPU cooler we've reviewed every hour and keep the history. A price counts as a drop only when it's below what the product has actually sold for over the last month, not below a shop's "was" price, which is often made up.
Will it fit my case and socket?
Check the cooler's height against your case limit, or the radiator size against the case's fan mounts, and that the box includes brackets for your socket.
Air or liquid cooling?
A good air cooler is quiet, cheap and has no pump to fail. A 240 or 360 mm liquid cooler helps with the hottest processors and looks neater.
“Usually” is the median of the lowest daily UK price over the last month, or the typical price we found when researching a product we haven't tracked for a week yet. Prices change, so check the price and delivery date with the shop before you buy. Links to retailers may earn us a commission, which never affects which product we pick.
