Zalman CU-7700

Has anyone ever used this heatsink? What temps should I expect? Right now I Get 49 degrees celsius idle but that's using the BIOS monitoring. I'll be getting a Lian Li T4 Dual Thermometer soon so that I can monitor the actual temps.

 

Summer Conditions

original - 55 idle - 68c max

7000cu - 43c idle 59c max

7700cu - 39c idle 55c max.

i mainly got it to cool down these hot temp Prescotts

 

I am able to go as low as 30C when idle and 43C on full load.

 

Sweet! Well then this will be my new cooler.

 

30-33 idle, 47 gaming high, 51 prime high.

its good, but i would prefere if it had a faster setting for when u dont care about noise.

but thats not the way zalman do things.

targ

 

post a shoot of how it looks on in the rig fellas

 

Thats my old 6800 NU sold it but i loved the heatsink, kept it around 45 idle to 52 C in games good choice for a gamer and its silent!

 

This is what mine looks like. This is an old pic (in case u ask about the dust on the fan ). It has since been cleaned up and the cables have been well tidied up....

the XP-90 is always a good option 2, think about it!
