OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
Zalman bills itself as the "quiet cooling solution" and they have a reputation for easy to use, reliable products. They also have a reputation for creating products that look as good as they run. With the CNPS 7700 AlCu, "bigger is better." A quiet, downward blowing 120mm ball bearing fan sits at the heart of a radial array of aluminum and copper convection fins.

While the fan runs at a low 32 dBA in its normal 2000 RPM setting, its Silent Mode drops it nearly 50% to 20 dBA as well as eliminating vibration. With its unrestricted flow, it cools not only the CPU, but the RAM, VGA card, Northbridge and other components. The included FAN MATE controller lets you choose in which mode the fan operates.

Heat is drawn away from the CPU by the pure copper base of the heatsink and it is transferred up into the twin semi-circular arrays of aluminum and copper fins for dissipation. The 7700 AlCu is only 2/3's the weight of the pure copper model. Both Intel Socket 775 and 478 Pentium 4 chips are supported by the 7700 AlCu. It is also compatible with AMD 64 processors using 754, 939 and 940 sockets.

Very Nice

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Very very nice. Fairly easy to install. Using this, I clocked a pentium 4 I just bought for an older computer from 3.0 to 3.6. It was perfectly stable and ran at a very nice temp for that much of an OC. Tested it by playing Supreme commander (Extremely CPU intensive) at that speed, and the fan kept it cooler than the previous fan did for the previous CPU, which was not OC'd.

Very Large, tons of tiny fins. Cools more by volume of airflow than speed, which still works very well, and keeps the noise way down, I can barely even hear that computer now. It even dropped my ablient case temp by about 5 degrees due to the massive amount of moving air.
Cons: The Fins are very flimsy. Be very careful installing it. I bent a few of em, but they bend back reletively easy. May be hard to fit. Mine is VERY close to the PSU.
Other Thoughts: When installing it, make sure the piece that runs through the heatsink that the mounting brackets attatch to didn't fall out of it's spot. Mind slid into a different spot and it took me about an hour to figure it out, the whole time I was very angry because the screws wouldn't reach the mount.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Works as intended , huge upgrade from stock, matched this with arctic 5 grease and my comp is running 26 degrees idle as compared to 37 stock. I am satisfied.
Cons: It says its max rpm is 2000 not a huge con but maxed out with the fan controller I'm only able to get 1350-1385rpm and thats way more then a +/- 10% difference. Either way not really a con at all because it cools extremely efficiently and is dead quiet in silent mode.
Other Thoughts: I think I bought the last one in stock =P, first review posted...ever

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Much quieter than stock cooler. Vastly improved cooling capacity over stock. With a mild overclock you can leave the fanspeed at it's minimum, but if you're trying to push your dual core to the max this fan/cooler has got you covered.
Cons: Not sufficient for aggressive quad core overclocks, but it wasn't designed to be.
Other Thoughts: I have used quite a few of these in recent builds and all run flawlessly. Huge improvement over stock. Sure, you can save $10-15 and go with a generic cooler, but zalman quality is proven and worth the few extra dollars.
