ZALMAN CNPS8700 2 Ball CPU Cooler

The current range of Intel and AMD processors generate potentially damaging heat – especially during high intensity processing. The smaller cases restrict air flow leading to increased potential for unstable computing. Zalman's CNPS 8700 delivers a cooling solution designed to fit into Slim Tower and low-profile Home Theater PC enclosures.

A 110mm spins at 2100 RPM between two semi-circular arrays of copper convection fins. These fins are supported by a pair of copper heat pipes which circle around the fan delivering thermal transference performance equal to a four-pipe array. Zalman's quality workmanship is apparent from the mirror finish of the copper base to the twin copper heatpipes that bend around the cooler.

Pulse Width Modulation, or PWM, allows the computer's BIOS to automatically adjust the fan's speed according to the thermal need of the system as it blows air over the ultra-thin .2mm fins. With its unrestricted airflow, it is able to cool the RAM, VGA card, Northbridge and other nearby components in addition to the CPU. Its Supporting the entire current range of AMD AM2, 754, 939 and 940 processors along with the Intel 775/1155/1156, the CNPS 8700 allows you to protect your investment and to ensure its continued reliability.
