New Zalman CNPS 9500 LED Cooler Review!

Not everybody speaks Englsish.
Not everybody is born an English or an American.

If you like to read, buy a book!

For now, try and enjoy the pictures, and the results which is what matters!
 
Wow is all I have to say. Just Wow

Besting a Zalman 7700ALCU by 13C is downright amazing and also beating a water cooling at the same moment given the same noise. When overclocking the P4 even further to 4.2GHZ quite a big gap opened up between the water cooling and the Zalman of over 4C. Amazing.

For those who haven't read the review it can be surmarised in these results:
Zalman 7700 --- Gigabyte 3D Galaxy --- Zalman 9500
69.5C -- 57.5C -- 56.6C --> p4 Prescott, 4.06GHZ, 1.35V
NA -- 64.7C -- 62.5C --> P4 Prescott, 4.2GHZ, 1.425V

That's with open air testing where the 9500 was at full speed in open air while all the different cooling solutions were producing the same level of noise.


Combine that with a case such as the P180 which is already thermally amazing but where the 9500 will blow straight out to the exhausts and you'll get some amazing cooling.
 
Are there any reviews of the scythe ninja, besides the ones on spcr? or even better, comparing it to the 9500?
 
Those results are impressive although I wish they would have tested a good quality H2O setup. I'm sure it would have walked all over the new Zalman. Still, great results for aircooling.
 
Everyone commented on the performance... yet nobody question whether or not this thing will actually sit in a tower. 🙂 I say this because it looks like it'd weigh a ton. Can you blame me for being a bit paranoid that the weight of the copper may eventually break something? Hehehe.

You shouldn't worry about HSF weight if you got a A64 or P4 system since they have HSF brackets for support and not those flimsy clips found in AXP motherboards.
 
I call BS. There's no way a couple of top end coolers would differ that much. 13C is a huge difference, thats like going from a stock cooler to a good aftermarket cooler. Hopefully SPCR reviews it soon.

Weight: 530g

It is less than 7700

But u will need to pay for this performance quite a lot.
