The CU is 2 pounds!<br /> <br /> There is a mobo compatibility chart for the 7700-CU on the Zalman website.<br /> <br /> <a class="ext" href="/action/r/http://www.zalman.com" target="_blank">http://www.zalman.com</a> text/html 2005-01-05T21:28:34-05:00 Josh http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/37118/#223147 How does the CNPS7700-ALCU (rather than -CU) version compare to this one? I've heard it's not as great, but I was wondering how much difference there really is. text/html 2005-01-05T18:49:43-05:00 Sander Sassen http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/37118/#223066 If it handles a 3.6GHz Prescott, as detailed in the review, any overclocked processor will run cool and quiet. There's not many CPUs that generate as much heat as a 3.6GHz Prescott, as you can see the Athlon 64 FX55 runs a whole lot cooler.<br /> text/html 2005-01-05T18:45:53-05:00 David Fletcher http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/37118/#223065 Yea, how do they handle temps with oced processors? <br /> And this thermaltake sounds like a 747 when I bump it up to 6000rpm. It's getting a bit old now.. text/html 2005-01-05T18:43:30-05:00 Sander Sassen http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/37118/#223064 All fans used in PCs over the past decade are brushless.<br /> text/html 2005-01-05T18:24:06-05:00 Wolfen http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/37118/#223054 I have a question about the fans in the testing (and those mentioned by the other posts). What technology is used in these fans? Brush, Brushless, etc. I have had problems over the years with fan failure and I find brush dies fast for me. Any input here? text/html 2005-01-05T18:00:26-05:00 Soul1601 http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/37118/#223047 Only Concern I have is the size. 120mm Fans?!? That has to take up some space.<br /> <br /> <br /> I Have a Thermaltake Venus 12 CPU Cooler on my AMD64 3200+. When I slid my 6800GT in my Case next to that, the space between dropped conciderably.<br /> <br /> With an 120mm Fan on the CPU, is there any worries GPU and CPU fans will be comming to close?<br /> They Both need room to breath, an have proper air flow. text/html 2005-01-05T17:47:39-05:00 David http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/37118/#223038 i was going to go for a big fancy cooler but ended up getting a Thermaltake TR2-M12 it was cheap as chips (£9 i think) and keeps my P4 3.06 at 38c idle / 50c load compared to stock which had it running at upto 60c load. A very good cooler for the money and very quiet too.<br /> <br /> EDIT: Id also like to know how arctic cooling's new line perform if anyone has one.<br /> <br /> <a class="ext" href="/action/r/http://www.arctic-cooling.com/cpu2.php?idx=9&amp;disc=" target="_blank">http://www.arctic-cooling.com/cpu2.php?idx=9&amp;disc=</a><br /> <br /> <br /> David. text/html 2005-01-05T16:51:27-05:00 Mothow http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/37118/#0 Sanders these H/S are really looking like a good alternative to water cooling.I wish you could have thrown in a 2500+ and P4 3.0 478 socket and OCed them a abit just to see what these 2 H/S could do with them.My Tt Polo735 keeps my cpu under 42c but man it sounds like a hairdryer thats on high when i put it at 5600rpm..
