MSI MAG COREFROZR AA13 | High-Performance CPU Cooler

The MSI MAG COREFROZR AA13 is a compact hybrid CPU cooler designed for processors up to 240W TDP. With its 120mm fan, four heat pipes, and high-density fin array, it delivers efficient cooling in a space-saving 152mm height profile.

Quick Specs

Compact Design, Powerful Cooling

Standing just 152mm tall, the MAG COREFROZR AA13 fits most mid-tower cases without compromising performance. Its slim profile makes it ideal for compact builds where space is at a premium but cooling demands remain high.

Direct Touch Heat-Pipe Technology

The cooler uses direct touch heat-pipes that place copper pipes directly against the CPU surface. This design eliminates the gap between heat source and cooling solution, ensuring faster heat transfer and more efficient thermal management.

High-Density Fin Array with Optimized Airflow

Featuring 50 tightly packed fins with a low-resistance airflow design, the cooler creates focused air pressure for enhanced cooling efficiency. This configuration also contributes to quieter operation while maintaining excellent heat dissipation.

Quad Heat Pipes for Rapid Thermal Transfer

Four 6mm copper heat pipes rapidly channel heat away from the CPU across the fin array. This quad-pipe configuration provides superior thermal performance compared to single or dual-pipe designs, especially under heavy loads.

Multi-Platform Compatibility

The mounting kit supports both Intel (LGA 1700/1851) and AMD (AM4/AM5) platforms right out of the box. The spring-screw design ensures secure installation, with the Intel mounting hardware pre-installed for immediate setup.
