Review on Zalman Performa Performance Powerful Included by Bali Benkgonk ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

Stands on 3770k, overclocked to 4.2 GHz, not scalped. Linx AVX warmed it up to 80. Without load, the temperature is usually 30-35, when all the cores are fully loaded with something like lightroom, up to 60-70. The cooler at first just put pressure on the brain with its noise, I thought I would not stand it and buy noctua for 1k. I put silent mode in the BIOS, it became better. Either the grease in it smeared after a while, or I got used to it, but now I don’t notice it anymore. Only when fully loaded there is a hum.

Pros
  • Normally cools a moderately overclocked processor Screws, not plastic latches
Cons
  • Noisy standard cooler at high speeds
