The ARCTIC Alpine 17 CO is a compact air cooler for Intel desktop processors. It suits builders assembling a system with a compatible Intel socket, as well as users who need a cooler designed for continuous operation in a workstation or other always-on PC.

A dual ball bearing fan is designed to handle long operating periods, while PWM speed control adjusts its speed across a broad range. The radial aluminium heatsink uses Y-shaped fins to increase its surface area and support airflow in a compact design. MX-4 thermal paste comes pre-applied, and push-pin mounting makes installation tool-free. Its 92 mm fan runs from 250 to 2700 rpm and connects through a 4-pin connector.
