good but not great
This cooler is quiet, easy to install and works well. Sadly the Zalman 9700 I had before gave me the same results even when I used a better thermal compound with this cooler. Also if you have a small case or a large side fan there may be some clearance issues. If you were to take the time and lap the block itself and or add a higher CFM fan to it you could have better results. All in all I give it a 4 for simplicity and performance, but was hoping for lower temps when compared to my air cooler. |
