Review on Zalman Performa Performance Powerful Included by Mateusz Brd ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

This cooler comes in two different builds: standard and deluxe. 1) Using clips that are straight 2) Contouring (for AMD) directly within the AMD FX 8320 itself. If you come across curved ones, then you are in luck because installing a cooler is a child's play; however, if you come across straight lines, like I did, then you need a little thought and ideally hands. We first secure the sticks, then attach the backplate to the mother after placing the clips in the sticks (there are many examples on YouTube how to do all this). after that comes the most exciting part! With one hand, we hold the tower of the cooler itself, and with the other, we press the bolt (which you already have in the hole of the clip) and press the key (which comes with the kit) on the bolt so that it hits the hole in the backplate with its tip. We then take the bolts that are designed specifically for screwing the clips into the backplate. I was able to get the cooler to function perfectly; the temperature range is now 16-20 degrees when it's not under stress, and 44-48 when it is.

Pros
  • 1) Chilling out 2) Low noise 3) Price
Cons
  • Not as simple as it seems.
