With the help of the supplied wrench we secured the silver colored bolts. The wrench can be used in an 45 degree angle, screw the bolts tight and the cooler is mounted and almost ready for action.
Once seated you can now connect the fan power cable to either your motherboard or a fan controller. The fans will emit a diffuse blue light.
The cooler has two operating modes, performance and low noise. The sheer difference is a supplied Resistor (RC5) which you place in-between the power source and the 9fan header cable. The resistor lowers voltage and keeps fan RPM below 1200 RPM, which we can recommend. though even at performance mode the cooler is not very noisy or anything.
Right, once the motherboard is out, 15 minutes work maximum if you follow our procudure, we positioned the cooler and are ready for the first test run.
Zalman CNPS 9900 DF review
We review the Zalman CNPS 9900 DF CPU cooler with Dual Fan. It's 2012 and Zalman is going strong on the concept and just when you think they can't change anything on that design ...
Zalman CNPS 12X review
The one that everybody remembers and still is going strong where the initial CNPS (Computer Noise Prevention System) CPU cooler, the copper somewhat rounded "butterfly" based coolers. That model has been the biggest success of all their coolers. Anno 2011 Zalman is still going strong on the concept and just when you think they can't change anything on that design they proof that a top notch new cooler based off that old design can still work out well and look gorgeous. The Zalman CNPS 12X comes with Zalmans heat transfer solution by utilizing composite heatpipe technology allowing a Q-Max of roughly 300W, along with a bigger design Zalman claims this cooler to be offering quiet operation and broad compatibility for Intel 2011/1156/1155/1366/775 & AMD AM3+/AM3/AM2+/AM2.
Zalman CNPS 9900 MAX review
Zalman decided to reintroduce the CNPS 9900 model one more time, slightly updated tagged with MAX.
Zalman CNPS 10X Quiet and Extreme review
Zalman recently released a new series of CNPS (Computer Noise Prevention System ) heatpipe based coolers. The new 10X coolers include five nice big heatpipes being cooled by a grotesque120mm fan. The PWM Fan comes with RPM Control which allows you to fine tune the cooler to your specific cooling requirements. And all that in a nice design and not too huge (in dimension) sized cooler. We will put two out of the three to the test namely the CNPS10X Extreme and CNPS10X Quiet. Both coolers impressed us a lot.
