Nice and cool
- Pros: It's huge = good cooling area. The fan is very quiet at slower speeds. Once I set my bios to run it at very slow speed, I can't hear it anymore. CPU is still nice an cold though. It sure looks good.
- Cons: It's huge, can be bothersome in smaller cases. Can be pretty loud when running full speed. Stupid nvidia striker and thus LED is only in green color.
- Other Thoughts: I used it for AMD Phenom II x4 CPU and I had a little hard time attaching this heat-sink. But, it could be just my case (Antec 900) with my motherboard that gave me little space to work with. It clears my RAM easily, so no problems there.
Excellent cooler
- Pros: This thing is awesome. I overclocked my X3 720 to 3.3ghz (Not THAT high, i know) and this keeps it stable at 35 degrees running prime 95. The cooler is very sturdy and well built. I was extremely impressed by the quality of the polish on the bottom of the plate that contacts the CPU. Zalman did another excellent job with this cooler.
- Cons: BIG. Fits perfectly in my Raidmax Smilodon case.
- Other Thoughts: Make sure you use proper technique when applying thermal paste. You only need to apple a LITTLE bit, about the size of a grain of rice. Then with a gloved fingers, spread the grease EVENLY over the surface of the processor. it should be an almost transparent layer of grease. anything more will begin to insulate the cooler and CPU from each other. Just look on youtube, there are plent of videos to explain the process.
Cool runnings
- Pros: - *Much* less noise than OEM heatsink (which had a tiny fan)
- Much cooler temps
- Phenom II x3 is now stable overclocked (2.8 to 3.6 Ghz), which was crashing at only 3.2 before. It ran a week straight without a blip. I haven't tried to go beyond 3.6.
- Cons: No functional cons
- Other Thoughts: - Somehow the thermal paste in the box was partially used and the remainder was somewhat dry and hard. Had to provide my own thermal paste. Not worth a "con" but worth mentioning.
