ZALMAN CNPS20LQ Liquid CPU Cooler, Fan 120 x 120 x 25 mm, 2 fans

Pros: Everything about this cooler is amazing I was able to over clock my processor from 3.8ghz to 4.4ghz and my temperature only went up one degree. It's also very quiet

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Make sure you have a big enough computer case because its a little big and won't fit in an average computer case.

Pros: Quiet, efficient, Cold, Easy to install

Cons: None that I can think of

Other Thoughts: I got this for my new gaming rig for college. Works great and was installed within minutes. swapped out a back fan for it. It comes with thermal gel already on it and is ready out of box. It keeps my CPU at around 20-30 degrees Fahrenheit tops. Great for those who use heavy frame rate programs.

Pros: Good cpu cooler..keeps system cool and very quiet.

Cons: I didn't receive the Intel backplate in original package but was ok because was installing on an AMD. Upgraded to Intel I7 and need a backplate...well Zalman has no customer service at all. No phone number just an email address that takes weeks to get a response. I will steer clear of Zalman products in the future..

Pros: Keeps my CPU really cool. High 90s degree (F) in the summer, and mid to high 80 degrees during the winter. I know most people here prefer using Celsius.

Cons: The directions weren't the best.

Pros: 1. easy to install if you know what your doing
2. relatively quiet
3. good performance

Cons: 1. fan was DOA, had to use a case fan as a replacement
2. didn't come with enough long screws for push/pull config with your own fans
3. can be loud depending on ambient room noise

Other Thoughts: would have been nice to have a working fan come with it, also coming with two fans for push/pull would be nice like the Corsair H80.

Pros: Works very good. Keeps temps 31c at idle and never over 52c with a load.

Cons: Minus one star for rebate. Don't hold your breath waiting for it. I sent mine in over 3 mo's ago, recieved an email saying it was recieved and to expect a rebate. Said rebate is way over due. Bought 2 of them and will buy more if said rebate ever gets here. If not , will never buy from Zalman again.

Pros: Oc'd an amd 8150 to 4.6 ghz with this cooler and kept mb temp at 56 and CPU temp at 35

Cons: So far none haven't had it long enough yet

Other Thoughts: At first i didn't think it would cool that well but i was wrong. Installation wasn't the easiest but was do-able

Pros: 1. Cool
2. Quiet
3. Solid construction
4. Set it and forget it

Cons: 1. Bad instructions (more details)

Other Thoughts: I was actually very skeptical of a liquid CPU cooler that you don't go back and maintain. This thing is very quiet paired with a mobo that controls fan speed. The construction feels very reliable. I checked the tubes for how well put together it was and if it would leak and couldn't see any corners cut on how it was built.

The instructions were actually very detailed, but it was very confusing on how to put it together regardless. Luckily, newegg's video on top of the instructions helped put things together after I fiddled with it for over an hour.

FYI - makes sure the plastic tabs that hold the screws in are turned the correct way, or it will not fit the motherboard's premade holes. That was my major hangup. Aside the lack of detail on that small hurdle, everything about the product is great. I trust Zalman as a brand altogether, especially for a good product that is quiet. I expect this would help with overclocking, but I'm choosing to stay stock settings to have it quieter and cooler for lower power consumption in my gaming rig.

Idle: 21c
Load: 32c

Specs:

i7-3770k
Asus Sabertooth
Intel 330 SSD
EVGA 680 GTX
Corsair Vengeance 16gb 1866
SeaSonic 550w

Pros: -easy to install (even though it was my first time using a water cooler)
-low profile pump
-thick tube walls which will not kink
-included fan is very fast
-keeps my cpu very cool

Cons: none

Pros: Very quiet, fits my case and motherboard. Allowed for an overclocked i5 to run fully loaded without cracking 35C. Definitely heats up the room when doing so.

Cons: Somewhat complicated to get figured out. Watch the Newegg video on the product page. It really helps understand all the pieces and steps. The radiator is a bit too thick to mount to the top of my case.

Other Thoughts: This was my first experience with water cooling.
