Review on Zalman Performa Performance Powerful Included by Adam EK ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

It would appear that you will be required to purchase a separate fan that has a wider range of speed control, position it behind the radiator so that it blows air out of it, and then conceal the standard fan as best you can. With all of its perks. In comparison to the norms of today, this weight is rather low. The cooler is attached to the backplate using four screws, and the tightening force can be adjusted because the screws enter the bushings and abut against them as they are tightened. This makes it impossible to over- or under-tighten the screws. Maintains a comfortable temperature at an affordable cost. I was able to install it on Socket 1155 without having to remove the motherboard because to the amazing window that was included in the chassis of the case. Cons: Perhaps this only relates to my particular unit, but the top plate dangles quite easily on the heat pipes, and it has a terrible pressing quality overall. As the fan occupies both of the front RAM slots on my Asrock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 motherboard, I can only use memory with a low profile rather than full capacity. Because to the fact that the Ears for fastening it have only one side, the fan cannot be changed without causing disruptions to the air circulation within the casing. The fan itself makes a moderate amount of noise, and despite the presence of a resistor, it rotates at an excessively high speed of about 1200 revolutions per minute. Additionally, the speed control range is insufficiently broad. It is impossible to have a computer that is fully silent while still having a conventional fan.
