  • At Idle temps, the Zen was significantly cooler than stock. At Load temps it showed a great improvement over stock and many other over the counter heat remedies. I was fairy impressed with the quietness of the fan. I could barely hear it even with the...

  • Flimsy wire retention system for the fan, Quite tall, may not fit some narrow cases
  • To me this is an outstanding product, one which I would recommend to anyone. I have been constantly amazed by the ability of this heatsink/fan combo to produce such low temps. I would never have predicted that it would perform so well when put up agai...

  • The ZEROtherm ZEN FZ120 came in with high expectations and did not disappoint. The Zen doesnt come out of the box with any flashy gimmicks or snazzy bundled items. And it doesnt need to. On our new test bench, this cooler proved it could hang with...
