It has been a long time...….

I have not purchased a CPU coller in ages!
I use to have a collection that was pretty complete as far as CPU coolers were concerned!
My favorite coolers were built by Zalman just because I loved the whole cooper thing and they were quite good!
So how does Aalman stack up to what else is out there??

Zalman has pretty-much passed by the wayside.

Noctua is king of air-coolers, and BeQuiet makes some good ones too. (Dark Rock 3, etc.)

CoolerMaster is hanging it there, but they now make AIO water-cooling kits too.

Noctua for HS/F
Corsair for AiO water systems.

I highly agree with VirtualLarry and WhiteNoise.

Noctua FTW for air coolers.

They will need to prey my D15 from my cold dead hands because im going to take it with me to my grave. Its on its third system, and second set of fans. When the fans failed the first time i didnt even notice right away as its big enough to keep the CPU cool with its mass alone.
