With great looks and excellent performance, this cooler would be an asset to most any compatible graphics board out there. Installation was a snap thanks to Zalman's online installation guides and compatibility charts, and the Fatal1ty's noise-to-cooling ratio is very good...

The CNPS9500 is another great product in a long line from Zalman. This cooler is definitely in the top three or four cooler that was released this year. The only other option better than this or any other cooler in this category would be to jump on the water-cooling wagon. The true definition of Zalman quality is right here. If you are willing to spend the few extra bucks, you won't be disappointed...

If you have been looking for a new CPU cooler that not only does it's job well, but looks great in the process, then the 9500 may be exactly what you need. Made of pure copper, the 9500 utilizes 3 heatpipes which effectively does the work of 6! Let's see how it compares to other heatsinks we have tested...

The Zalman ZM460 is not the prettiest PSU I've ever seen. It has no fancy gizmos or modular design. What it does have, however, is performance. I've had a wide variety of power supplies come through here and I can't honestly say that any of them have performed better than the ZM460. I know for a fact that I've never had a PSU that was this quiet...

When it comes to PC cooling Zalman has a great name. Being one of the first who introduced heatpipes into VGA cooling, it was an immediate hit. But when the competition started using this same technology for CPU heatsinks, Zalman's own CPU coolers were falling behind. Now, a bit late perhaps, we have Zalman's first heatpipe based CPU cooler. The Zalman CNPS9500 Led. Let's see how it does against the best out there; the Scythe Shogun and Thermalright XP-90C are waiting...

Zalman has been around for ages, and their sound quality is known to gamers all around the Globe. They don't have many sound products, but the ones they do are top of the line. Let's see how their Theatre 6 headphones do to tide my thirst of explosions at 4am in the morning.... ;-)

Fatal1ty has partnered with Zalman, among other companies, to market high-end products to the computer gaming community. The FS-C77 CPU cooler is one of Zalman's first products to carry the Fatal1ty moniker and the company touts it as the "ultimate CPU cooler". Let's take it for a spin and see what all the hype is about...

As formidable as the CNPS7700 is, it is unfortunately incompatible with many motherboards because of it's huge size. The damn thing 5.35 inches across so if it doesn't cover your memory, it probably will rub up against your video card. The smart guys at Zalman knew they couldn't increase performance by making their heatsinks any bigger, so they stood the fan up on end and added 3 heatpipes to the mix. Then, for some style added a couple Blue LED's as well. The innovative design they came up with is what we know as the CNPS9500 LED CPU Cooler...

The Zalman CNPS9500 LED is a very good low noise heatsink for any AMD Athlon64 (socket 754/939/940) processor. The heatsink is foremost quiet, and offers among the best balance of noise and thermal levels that we've seen to date. There are cooler heatsinks which are much louder, a very few heatsinks which are much quieter, but no heatsinks which are quieter and cooler...

I love it when a product exceeds your expectations. The sleek black Reserator 1 Plus offers good performance for the non-over clocked processor and does so in near silence. So silent in fact, it's a bit eerie. The familiar low pitched hum of my main rig is almost deafening in comparison and it is by no means loud. Zalman continues to bolster their reputation as the King of Quiet Computing...

The VF700-AlCu exhibits the same quality, performance, and noise levels that I've come to expect from them. If you're in the market for a VGA cooler seeking both performance and low noise levels then you certainly can't go wrong with Zalman's VF700-AlCu. With the excellent instruction, design and included multi-connector setup is smooth and allows the buyer to choose just how much performance or silence they need.

The decision to choose between Zalman VF700-Cu and VF700-AlCu is pretty easy. The Cu performs better than the AlCu, and the 50% increase in weight is not that big an issue since the Cu is still much lighter than ZM80D-HP! On average, VF700-Cu is about 3-4°C cooler than VF700-AlCu, depending on the fan speed mode. So, if performance is what you are looking for, the VF700-Cu is clearly your choice.

Its no secret, we are building systems that create high amounts of heat produced by the CPU. We need heat dissipating products that work effectively; all the while we want to be able to hear ourselves think. Today we will be taking a gander at a Massive sized heatsink The CNPS 7700-ALCU CPU Heatsink from Zalman to see if size really does matter or not.
