It is not necessary to glue the backplate sticker, but you need to put it - this is a support and a dielectric (a black rubber square - the sleeve can be glued; you need it anyway, just attach the yellow paper square but do not glue the side where it contacts the system board), if not glue, but attach a yellow paper square, then the backplate will be removable and easily fit on another board. Do not listen to users that they can not norms. put, just carefully study the instructions and slowly…

I wanted to take Flex, but I searched for a long time and did not find it in the city, I took the performance and was not disappointed. The cooler itself is cheaper, plus there is no longer a bad fan in the kit (but the flex heatsink is of course more efficient, and the thermal paste is better and in larger quantities there) PS: guys, how do you smear the paste? :) The paste must be squeezed onto the center of the processor cover in the form of a drop. When installing the radiator, this drop…

under the most difficult operating conditions, Q9505 (TDP 95W) overclocked to 8.5x400 MHz did not warm up above 52 degrees at an air temperature in the room of 18 degrees (the case is the most ordinary old invin) the fan speed was 1200 rpm (connected through the standard resistance) idle - 25 degrees and 900 rpm draw your own conclusions, but in my opinion the quality is 100% consistent with the price overall very satisfied with the purchase

I took the Cooler Master S200 as a replacement and in general Zalman is an EXCELLENT tower cooler. I took a new one for only 1700. for cooling the Core i7-4790 (the paste was included in the kit - zalman zm-stg2, thick, but smeared perfectly), as a result, the temperature: in idle time - 28-30, in load it does not rise above 58. Regarding the unnecessary plate in the kit, which is not written anywhere - it turned out that it is simply not needed for socket 1150, because otherwise the bolts will

There is an fx-8350 processor (8 cores at 4 GHz). In Wot at max, the processor temperature is 38-45 degrees. I had to suffer with the installation - the standard mounting brackets were too far from the mother - so it was impossible to pull the cooler without breaking the mother. How the problem is solved - the slats are taken and bent around the edges, of course, it looks flimsy, but it works. The main thing is not to overdo it - they are easy to break.

Until recently, I doubted its effectiveness due to ambiguous comments, but as I checked it, I was very happy, he does his job completely, with the size, don’t miscalculate me, he climbed right under the lid. Pros: The price is 1000r, the silence is not more than 19 dB, everything for fastening is included, the percentage of 2500k was an intel cooler with a copper penny, it warmed up with toys up to 90 gr. with him not higher than 40 gr. Has cons: not quite a drawback, but if you don’t have…

I was looking for a quiet cooler for a long time, and the fact that I had to pull the mother out of the case was plus I cleaned the annual dust with a vacuum cleaner Now I hear the operation of the screw and the quiet sound of the power supply fan My E5300 temperature does not rise above 40 at minimum speed In general, an excellent cooler Got pros: 1 quiet 2 cools well 3 good pressure 4 In my case can be used without a fan Some cons: Well, if the hands are crooked, then it will be difficult…

The quality of the sole leaves much to be desired. The surface is not polished and curved. I found out by leaning against the mirror - it sways! I did not level it, I relied on thermal paste) Heat pipes have contact with the sole only on one side. The mounting system to the motherboard in my opinion is extremely unsuccessful. Everything is done in such a way that the rear mounting bracket does not distribute the weight of the cooler on the motherboard. I even wanted to leave the back bar from…

I took Thermaltake Maxorb for cooling С2Q 2.8 (9550) as a replacement. Under the thermal take, at the speed of his native 2K fan, when the processor was overclocked to 3.2, the temperature went off scale over 70 degrees, the cores reached 90. After installing the subject, the temperature on the processor overclocked to 3.4 is not higher than 48, the cores are not higher than 65. This is at a fan speed of not higher than 1250. Very happy with the purchase!

10 days of use and testing. platform: Asus H87-PLUS + i7 4771 for installation, you need to remove the regular processor clamp and it is pressed against the board by the cooler itself - this is a minus and complexity. due to its mass, it is not practical to use plastic clips. the fan in normal mode spins at 700-800 rpm, while the processor temperature does not exceed 40 degrees (it stays around 35). at the same speed in game mode (WoT), the processor heats up to 42-45. at full load…

On 06/06/12, this cooler was purchased and installed on an Intel Pentium D 3.2GHz processor (775 socket, heat dissipation 130W). To install, I had to disassemble the computer and remove the motherboard from the case. the cooler has a large rectangular well-polished sole. contents of delivery: radiator 120 mm fan 1 pc (rather noisy, but that's to be expected) manual (no 2022 language) 1 pc universal mount for different sockets bolts resistor 1 pc hex wrench (if you do not have your own…

I took a cooler to replace the boxed one for the Intel Core i5-2500K. With a slight overclock to 3700 MHz, the maximum temperature dropped by 20 degrees compared to the boxed cooler! It was 73, but it became 53. And this despite the fact that the temperature of 72.6 degrees, according to official data, is considered critical for the Core i5-2500K. Has pros: Efficient, quiet (compared to boxed), easy to install, holds up well. Different cons: Dimensions, the need to unscrew the motherboard from…

After working for two years as a PC assembler and repairer, I realized two things: any modern thermal paste dries out in a year, three at best, and that all non-tower-type coolers become tightly clogged with dust and start making wild noise. That's why I went to experiment for my home PC. I installed the Performa on an AMD Phenom II 945 without thermal paste, assuming that the polished copper base would hold everything without problems. And this calculation justified itself completely: * the…

Was put on mother Asus P5B de-Luxe wi-fi\Core Duo 6420 22022. In the case from Asus. There is a fan for blowing in front 90, rear 2x90, I drove the processor to 2.90, the regular cooler did not even dare to try, because it was already noisy on the drain and did not remove heat well. (Simple 40-48, load up to 77g .) After installing Zalman Perfoma: The temperature in idle time is from 36-41 (I don’t know how people keep it from 26-30, it’s a lie!). Temperature under max. loads from 47-59.…

the noise of the cooler just pissed me off, it took me a long time to choose (I looked at the reviews and tests) did you put down the Thermalright TY-147? Yes, exactly 140 mm. Everything fell into place, it is simply not audible even in comparison with the vaunted NOTCUA, it also stands in the blowing case. Cooler is just a song. But in general, a normal unit for cooling the processor.

not too heavy. lighter extreme version, supports all modern connectors and not expensive. Good combination of price / quality P. S why did some people decide that a screwdriver should be supplied in the kit !? and it’s not difficult to fix the cooler to the motherboard, the main thing is not to put on the fan right away and then a super curved screwdriver is not needed !

Assembled a quiet computer: Processor Intel Core i7-3770K Motherboard Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H Enclosure Zalman MS800 HDD Western Digital WD10EFRX PSU OCZ OCZ-ZS650W-EU Stands on the floor half a meter. Immediately advice: Change the noisy fan. For 300-400 you can pick up and cherish this cooler. The cooler is the only noise in the system: no matter how it was played in the BIOS, it connected / disconnected the PWM. In general, I configured it to work in passive at low load, it turns on in…

Pretty good cooler for the money. He copes with his tasks with a bang. If you replace the fan, it will also become silent. Take it, you won't regret it. However, installing it in the motherboard will be problematic compared to analogues from other manufacturers. Be careful when installing this cooler. Different pros: - Universal, compatible with all sockets - Native fan has 4pin connector - Possibility to install 2x 120x120mm fans. - Large aluminum heatsink - Resistor (fan speed limiter)…

I took it for a complete set a week ago, here's what happened: Processor - i7 3770K Cooler - Zalman CNPS10X Performa Motherboard - MSI Z77A-G45 Memory - Corsair Vengeance 16GB (1600Mhz) 4x4GB Kit Video card - Gigabyte GTX 680 HDD - WD Caviar Blue 1TB PSU - Chieftec APS-650C 650W EVERYTHING flies! Didn't even need an SSD. I would like to note that in combination with the Zalman CNPS10X Performa, it’s just the Arctic. In idle time 32С, and in load it did not rise above 45С And for this…

Being a layman in any kind of computer hardware, after dismantling the boxed i5 750 cooler, which had not been cleaned for about 2 years and therefore warmed up the steam to incomprehensible 95C with its dried-out paste base, I purchased this cooler and installed this cooler in a couple of hours of unhurried installation tight on the hull. I have never dealt with such matters before and for installation it was necessary to read the manual. I immediately overclocked the CPU to 4.4GHz, but…
