All testing was done for a 48 hour period with room temperatures being 74 degrees Fahrenheit. Motherboard used MSI K8N Neo3-F. Processor AMD Sempron64 754 2800+ at stock speeds. Temperature benchmarking tools used, MSI Core Center, PC Wizard 2006 and Speed Fan.
Conclusion
This heat sink and fan are definitely not for those who want to overclock. Fan speeds never hit max with or without the fan controller also you would expect more of a drop in temperature with an aftermarket fan. I would recommend this fan for the average daily user it's a nice looking addition for your rig and with Zalmans, How to Install Video it makes it easy for even a novice to install this fan.
Pros
- Nice looking setup
- Ease of installation
- Comes with 92mm LED Fan
- Can be used with multiple CPU's
Cons
- Disappointing fan speed: with controller 2240 max
- Without controller 2480 max (rated for 2600 max)
- Disappointing drop in overall temps
