Beautiful "Pearl Black" nickel finish throughout, Cover over fins gives a unique look, Elaborate removable fan controller is very versatile, Performs better than anything Ive tested
At just shy of two pounds, using screws instead of baseplate is a little scary
When I measured the overclock idle temp on the CNPS 10X Extreme, I was afraid that the coolers overclock performance would be mediocre at best, giving the highest OC idle temp by 5C. I decided to bump up the fan controller to Mid mode. The temp immed...
The new Zalman cooler made the most favorable impression on us. After CNPS9900 LED it is a really serious step forward for Zalman, even though CNPS10X Extreme turned out just another super-cooler to join several dozens of others. Although, I don’t t...
Five heatpipe design, Easy installation, Multilayer aluminum fin array, Nickel plated coating for corrision resistence, Copper base has mirror finish with no signs of poor milling, Threespeed PWM fan controller can be mounted on top of heatsink and out
Included thermal paste was a bit clumpy and took effort to smooth out
The Zalman CNPS10X Extreme was truly a pleasure to work with from the time I took it out of the box until I sadly had to uninstall it from our test system to move on to another review item. When I stood it next to the other heatsinks we tested it aga...

Abstract: As it stands, the reason why we like this cooler so much is because it really does suit many people’s needs. While it may not be the best in all situations it is very good in nearly every situation we threw at it. This coupled with some great features allows us to award the Zalman CNPS10X Extreme our Damn Innovative award..
Zalman has always been known for having some very unique looking coolers, and when I saw the press release for the CNPS10X Extreme cooler I was a little puzzled at their decision to join all the other aftermarket cooling companies who have gone to the...

I’m left feeling very satisfied with the CNPS10X Extreme as a whole. The black nickel coating seems to be all the rage in high-end air cooling these days and Zalman picked up on the trend by providing a sturdy yet sexy product to cool your CPU. The...
Este Zalman CNPS10X Extreme en conjunto, nos ha dejado muy satisfechos. El revestimiento de níquel negro que presenta le da un toque muy agresivo, y a primera vista deja la impresión de que se va comer cualquier grado de más...

Abstract: Bien que n’étant pas majoritaires, nous sommes nombreux à préférer monter nos propres PC plutôt qu'opter pour une configuration d’assembleur. Aussi on opte le plus souvent pour un processeur en version boîte, qui est accompagné d’un dissipateur qu’Inte...
