Zalman CNPS8700 LED CPU Cooler Review

“Taking into consideration its height and weight, the CNPS8700 is an excellent cooler, achieving better results than expected. It can't quite compete with larger, taller heatsinks, but isn't left in the dust either. It's relatively compact, beautiful to look at and provides very good cooling not just for the CPU but for the components around it. The lack of such cooling is a bit of a concern on many tower heatsinks with fans that don't blow down toward the motherboard but, rather, across it. This is especially true when such heatsinks are combined with very slow fans that blow little air (as so many PC silencers are apt to do).”
