Photos 3 | Outdated Product $31.55 up to $34.64 In every sense, a successful and still very popular CPU cooler model of 2012. It has a tower form factor with a U-shaped heatpipe layout and an impressive single-section heatsink, blown by a 120 mm fan. It is positioned as a product of the middle price category, which can cope with the cooling of Intel / AMD processors with increased heat dissipation. It has a relatively small height (152 mm), it can be easily installed in ATX- and microATX-computer cases with a width of 18 cm. , which provides direct heat transfer from the CPU heat spreader cover to the tube wall. The profiled aluminium radiator with an area of 6553 cm2 consists of 47 aluminium plates 0.5 mm thick with an interfin spacing of 2.5 mm. For its blowing, a branded seven-blade fan with a durable hydrodynamic bearing is provided.... PWM control makes it possible to change the speed of rotation of the impeller in the range from 1000 to 1700 rpm, which allows you to balance between cooling efficiency and acoustic comfort. |

big tower
One of the most affordable full size tower coolers is the Zalman CNPS10X Optima. Tower coolers are usually called models with an array of fins separated from the contact pad, heat exchange between which is carried out through tubes. By full-size, we mean models with at least four heat pipes and a fan diameter of 120 mm or more.
Combination of copper and aluminium
If the Optima tubes are made of copper (there is no anti-corrosion nickel coating), then the fins are made of cheaper aluminium. However, all-copper tower coolers are a rarity. The tubes are in direct contact with the processor, which is an advantage for large-chip chips (AMD, Intel LGA2011). Verdict. Designed for use in noisy environments and chips with a large crystal: AMD FX and Intel LGA2011.
Optimal for AMD
Zalman CNPS10X Optima is one of the few coolers that are installed on AMD processors with the fan sideways instead of up, that is, they blow hot air towards the ventilation grill on the back of the case.
Recommended minimum for overclocking
The Zalman fan spins up to 1700 rpm and buzzes up to 28 dB, which can be described as average noise. Of course, you will not achieve overclocking records on this cooler, but you will definitely succeed in adding half a gigahertz-gigahertz to a processor, whether it be Intel or AMD. As a result, we can recommend this cooler for purchase to those who do not pursue complete PC silence, but plan to overclock processors with a large chip: AMD FX and Intel LGA2011.
