Hi, seems that the rear exhaust fan is blowing towards your Zalman CPU cooler. You should turn it around and exhaust the hot air from the Zalman Cpu cooler.
why get the NT? when the Copper LED is better.. If you had all green coloured fans i would get the NT too but all your other fans are blue lit, so surly the LED is the one to go for.
GOd i love that cooler,i jst got one from frys electronics a day ago! i'll be making a new video on it soon, and some upgrades on my comp. an if you guys no were 2 find a cheap 8800 gts, tell me! i need one more to make my comp complete!!!!!!!! (an mabey a new processor to, hmm?)
This is the top-of-the-line flagship product from Zalman, I better hope it's enough o_o
Be careful though, this thing is a good 124mm on all sides, at least. I'd measure out 130 on all sides of your case, to be on the safe side. It should fit all gaming cases, but normal and some gaming midtower cases might have some trouble.
Oh, and don't buy thermal paste. The one that comes with the HSF is great. I get temps of 18C on my e6400 @ 3.0 with them :)
i ve got a E6850 over cloaked to 2x3.52 ghz could i use such a cooler with a 120 mm fan behind it ? or do i need a stronger cpu cooler? im asking becourse i got a 9500 iside but its blue and i dont want to use it as manuel....
Dude, there's something wrong with your processor. Even with stock fan, it's not suppossed to reach 54C. I can only imagine what it'll do on load; 60C is usually considered when temps start becoming dangerous.
the 9500 has less copper and the light is blue. but if your getting the new 45nm chips their very cool, my zalman 9700 does not activate the fan until 10 seconds after start up.
The thing is i dont play many games just a few like Flight Simulator and F.E.A.R, But incase i want to play more games i would upgrade my graphic card to a XFX 8800GT.
hey at least he has something cool unlike you... i hate ppl who think there better but u can only see words comming out of there mouth... nopics or vids about there rig...
Nice! ya i have it with me and man, videos cant do it any justice it's massive! but i've already measured it for room in my nzxt apollo case and i have plenty of clearance...I almost have all of the parts necessary for my build...just waiting on the 8800gtx now!
Hay when u installed the cooler is it tightly installed like it doesnt wobble when u move it to a different angle or is it like loose type of thing.
I have mine installed but it doesnt look tightly installed even tho the screws are mounted on my board but the only thing after I installed it my board it freezes or locks up during post after when its turned on and I have a Asus striker board.
The Zalman 9700nt is tight. It doesnt move at all or wobble around for me. you might be missing something have you read the installination guide, its easy to install.
you tightened one of the screws too much, take them all off, and put them all in at the same time, but dont tighten them. give them each one turn at a time till they are all tight, then you will have a proper fit.

Ordered and waiting for it to arrive. I chose this over the LED because I feel better when the CPU fan is auto.

9700 NT is pretty noisy at full speed, everything around 2000RPM is alright ( 2800RPM is his full speed )
It cools my Q6600 pretty well with CPU temp of 20c and cores are running 32-39c at 1300RPM.
When it's OC-ed to 3.6GHz @ 1.35v temps are higher for 5-10 in load and 5-7 in idle.

just remembered the 9700 come with an auto temp reader that will automatically adjust fan speed i think the 9500 is manual.

hey mate the Zalman CNPS 9700NT is a massive cooler. It cooled my Core 2 Duo E6600 from 45(stock cooler) degree to 24 degree IDLE temperature.

Hay when u installed the cooler is it tightly installed like it doesnt wobble when u move it to a different angle or is it like loose type of thing.
I have mine installed but it doesnt look tightly installed even tho the screws are mounted on my board but the only thing after I installed it my board it freezes or locks up during post after when its turned on and I have a Asus striker board.
