Zalman CNPS7000C-ALCU CPU Cooler

The CNPS7000C-ALCU Zalman CPU Cooler is an upgrade to the Zalman 7000B-ALCU CPU Cooler. Zalman revolutionized the quiet CPU cooling market with their 7000 series coolers. The 7000C-ALCU comes with a Fanmate 2, and a high strength reinforced plastic backplate for use with select AMD CPUs.

Zalman has taken the basic concept of their flower cooler and improved upon it. Zalman's 7000 series coolers all have far superior heat dissipation because of their numerous fins. They are similar in design to the flower coolers as it also has much of the look of a rolodex. But this ″rolodex″ is circular rather than in the shape of a ″flower″, with a silent fan located in the middle of it. The incorporation of a silent fan directly in the middle of 360 degrees of thin, rolodex-like fins allows for maximum heat dissipation.

700C-ALCU Features

1. Does not generate noise or vibration in Silent Mode
2. Pure copper and pure aluminum base materials ensure excellent heat dissipation
3. Compatible with single and dual core CPUs for Intel Socket 775 and AMD Socket AM2/754/939/940
4. 92mm fan inside the heatsink maximizes airflow
5. Adjustable fan speed controller Fan Mate 2 enables control of noise and fan performance

Cautionary Notes

¹ The computer system may automatically shut down when booting the computer after the system monitoring program outputs a warning stating that the CPU fan is rotating slowly. In such event, fully turn the Speed Control Knob in the clockwise direction before rebooting to disable the 'CPU Fan Detected' option in BIOS, or set the CPU fan's rotational speed to 1,350RPM or lower in the system monitoring program.

Note: Some motherboards fail to boot if the rotational speed of the CPU fan is below a certain RPM. However, booting can be possible even at low fan RPM if the BIOS settings are updated. For more information on updating the BIOS, please refer to the website of the motherboard's manufacturer. There are motherboards which fail to detect the RPM while operating the cooler in Silent Mode, but this does not affect the computing performance.

² Excessive force exerted on the fan may damage the fan, resulting in damage to the system.
