Zalman CNPS8000 Ultra Quiet Low Profile CPU Cooler
Because CPUs are getting hotter and hotter, we have seen heatsinks getting bigger and bigger to cope with the cooling demands. The problem with very large heatsink is that they sometimes can not be used in lower profile chassis where space is at a premium. Zalman have successfully addressed this problem with the CNPS8000 without sacrificing performance.
Features
- Noiseless and vibration-free in silent mode, from 18dB
- Four heatpipes for quicker heat dispersion
- Optimised fins for high performance and low weight
- Low profile cooler, only 62.5mm tall
- FANMATE2 included
- Sockets AM2, 754, 940, 939 and 775 compatible
At only 62.5mm tall the CNPS8000 is capable for cooling any CPU it is compatible with. It does this with the aid of four heatpipes that transfer the heat from the copper base to the top edge of the fins. This allows the whole heatsink to be used more efficiently.
Attached above the heatsink is a legendary Zalman 92mm fan and when it is connected to the supplied FANAMTE2 the maximum noise level is 30 dB(A), but running the fan at that noise level will not be necessary for most users. The slowest setting, at just 18 dB(A), will be more than adequate and if you are unsure how loud 18 DB(A) is; you will need to put your ear next to the fan to be able to hear it!

The CNPS8000 is the coolest cooler we’ve tested. At only 5v, it was able to keep our overclocked Prescott at reasonable temperatures in virtual silence, but beating the enormous Big Typhoon in ultimate cooling required setting the fan to full speed.
PCW Magazine
At just 62.5mm tall, Zalman’s latest CPU cooler, the CNPS8000, has been designed for installation in lower-profile cases. Overall: This is a good cooler for home-theatre PCs.
