Final testing and Conclusion
Stock Speed on CPU, Fan at 2200rpm:
So in this test we turned up the fan to max speed, as we can see we lowered the temperatures quite a bit. Ambient temperature during testing was about 18 Celsius.
Overclocked CPU, Fan at 2200rpm:
I personally would run the fan at low speed since I like silent computers and the temperatures stayed low enough for my taste.
Conclusion:
Zalman has done it again, this cooler performs excellent like the previous high end coolers from Zalman. It has a fan controller which makes it very easy to turn on more speed on the fan if you are going to play or if the computer gets unstable. I believe this cooler sells for around 50$ right now which is quite inexpensive compared to others on the market. Installation was very easy and the socket support makes this a very reliable cooler that you can use for a longer period of time. I will give it our recommendations for super performance at a decent price level.
Pros:
+ Fan controller
+ Perfect core
+ Silent
+ Well priced
Cons:
- Big and heavy
- Dry thermal paste
