Xigmatek Red Scorpion, HDT-SD964 und HDT-D1284 Crossbow Test

Zalman CNPS7500-CU LED HSF Review
|
Came into this review expecting the Zalman CNPS7500 CU to differentiate itself from its small form factor brother, the CNPS8700 LED. What I found was a heatsink that is a good deal heavier that performs almost identical to the CNPS8700 LED. Keep in mind, this is not really a bad thing as it does not...
