New CPU Cooler - The Zalman CPS9700 [56k Warning!]

~~RE III - Frankie~~ · Jun 24, 2009, 10:14 AM

Hey guys! I bought a new CPU cooler and overclocked to 3.75GHZ today. In comparison to clocking with my old Xigmatek HDT S1283 temps were down a bit I think comparatively a few degrees.

So even though the S1283 has direct touch heatpipes it can't outperform the aerodynamic design and structured seashell shape of the Zalman CNPS9700.

Temps are down 5C or more from what you had looking better

This one uses that grey thermal paste. Maybe that has something to do with it also.

Not really sure depends on the paste and the application of it as well.

It is branded Zalman Super Thermal Grease ZM-STG1. I applied a nice even maybe mm and 1/2 of it covering the entire topside of the CPU.
