The editors didn't like

  • Price (for some)
  • Installation
  • Big and heavy
  • Dry thermal paste
  • Not as good with low airflow
  • Heavy/Tall
  • Price
  • Inflexible AMD mounting
  • Mounting solution (needs a backplate)
  • Very Bulky (over two pounds!)
  • May not fit on some motherboards.
  • Included thermal paste was a bit clumpy and took effort to smooth out
  • Bigger
  • More expensive
  • And not quite as effective as its peers. No multifan support.
  • At just shy of two pounds
  • Using screws instead of baseplate is a little scary

  • Abstract:  C’est une petite révolution qui se trame chez Zalman, puisque avec la sortie de son nouveau dissipateur haut de gamme à peine 6 mois après le CNPS 9900LED. Zalman semble changer le design de ses dissipateurs. Le CNPS10X Extreme, c’est son nom, abandonn...

  • Le conclusioni non possono non essere in generale molto positive, forse con alcune critiche da fare in relazione al prezzo, dato che 60 euro è una cifra obbiettivamente molto elevata per un dissipatore e per il montaggio che non risulta essere molto se...

  • Anche spostando la sua attenzione verso soluzioni tutto sommato tradizionali, Zalman non abbassa la guardia e fornisce un prodotto al top per prestazioni e features.Come abbiamo avuto modo di notare, il CNPS10x non teme confronti né fra i diversi mod...

  • Das Gesamtfazit wird keinen Sieger krönen aber einige Hinweise bieten. Der gesamte Test zeigt, dass man nicht immer einen leistungsstarken Kühler benötigt. Gerade die 65W TDP-Klasse kann man im Grunde mit jedem Marken-Kühler unter Volllast sehr leise ...

  • Der Zalman CNPS10X Extreme ist zweifelsohne ein guter CPU-Kühler, überzeugt jedoch nur bei starker Belüftung und verliert deutlich an Leistung, sobald die Drehzahlen des angebrachten 120mm Lüfters auf unter 1000 U/min sinken. Da jedoch auch die stärkst...

  • Mit dem CNPS 10 Extreme meldet sich der ehemalige Klassenprimus Zalman mit einem Lebenszeichen zurück. Die Kühlercombo brilliert – für Zalman typisch – mit sehr guter Qualität in Material und Verarbeitung sowie einem kompletten Lieferumfang inklusive...

  • Abstract:  Waterkoeling wordt steeds populairder. Is het niet vanwege de prestaties, dan zijn het wel de looks die daarbij de doorslag geven. Toch wordt de top drie met populairste koelers in onze Productvergelijker nog altijd uitsluitend gevormd door luchtkoelers...
