The temperature in my test area was a steady 18.3°c, which is what I like in my work area. I’m a fat guy, so I like it chilly. What is your problem anyway? The fact of the matter is that the Zalman beat the living snot out of the stock cooler, dropping it 13 degrees on idle and 21 degrees on full load. This is a significant improvement over stock, and could mean the difference between your CPU running smoothly or overheating and shutting down your entire computer. I also tested the Zalman coolers on low and high RPMs, thanks to the included FanMate.

In conclusion, I found the Zalman 9500 a very sweet surprise, especially in light of some of the crap that is thrown onto the heatsink shelf in our PC shops. It looks good, it’s damned efficient, and is a very easy install even under the tightest conditions given its standing-flower design. And with the option of controlling the speed via the included controller, what we have here is a very nice heatsink with a lot of opportunity to get the most out of your PC.

Can someone help me plseae I have Acer laptop 7530g and it has this type of processor: AMD athlon X2 Dual Core QL65 2,10 GHz Is It possible to clock it to atleast 2,4 GHz or higher (prefered 3,0GHz )?? , and can I clock it using this tutorial? I would really appreceate your Help! Thank you
Yeah, I should clarify that my installation was fairly easy due to the mobo's readiness to accept the heatsink. For other motherboards, you will likely find that it's a real treat to try to get it going. Results may vary, as the Oxiconton bottle says.
One of the last great coolers for a socket 478. I got similar results and am very pleased. Oh, and it was a real PITA to install.
