Brrrrr
- Pros: Cools overclocked CPU's like a charm. Fits varios CPU socket types, even includes mounting brackets for other types.
- Cons: A bit big, Make sure case can fit the Cooler.
- Other Thoughts: Drop temps down from 36C to 1 degree above case ambeint temp on idle and went from 58C to 50C load on phenom 2. Will greatly help during summer when ambeint rises from 17C to 25C i suspect. Even with an overclock it runs cooler than non-OC stock cooler
Incredible...
- Pros: Phenom 9850 BE went from 50c idle 60cish load
to 35c idle 45 load at low-medium fan speed, nearly inaudible under case fan noise. Looks great with all the other blue LED fans in my build. Also, ordered it the 10th got here the 12th, one day early. Newegg rocks!
- Cons: Wish it had a 4 pin to allow the mobo to control fanspeed rather than me.
- Other Thoughts: Would recommend for anyone even if you aren't overclocking.
Great!
- Pros: Wow, this cooler has really impressed me. Installed it on my latest gaming rig build and even though I've only had it a short time now, I'm already impressed. Using it on an AMD Phenom II X4 955 with Arctic Silver 5. It's not even through the AS 5 break-in period and it's running at 30 C idle and 39 C under full load!
- Cons: none
- Other Thoughts: There's a reason this thing is so popular.

Introduction
The Zalman 9700 CPU cooler offers high-performance cooling in a unique design. The heatsink and fin assembly are made from 100 percent copper for improved heat dissipation. The base is built of both copper and aluminum, keeping the overall weight of the unit down while providing optimal heat transfer to the triple set of copper pipes. The curved heat-pipe design allows them to draw twice the amount of heat away from the processor.
At the center of the aerodynamically optimized tunnel created by the fins is a 110mm, blue LED fan. Included is the company's Fan Mate 2 fan-speed controller. In Silent mode the fan spins at 1,250rpm and creates 19dBA of noise, but when you need extra cooling for demanding tasks you can shift it up to 2,800rpm to quickly force heat away from your CPU and other system components.
The 9700 is compatible with all single- and dual-core CPUs for Intel's Socket 775 and AMD’s Socket AM2/754/939/940. All the clips and backplates are included so there's nothing else to buy to get the unit attached to your motherboard in minutes. A tube of Zalman's own thermal grease is bundled in as well.
