Zalman CNPS7700-CU 120mm 2 Ball Cooling Fan

Product Description

ZAL FN CNPS7700-CU CPU Cooler 2-BALL heatsink w/120mm FN

Amazon.com Product Description

Zalman's CNPS7700-Cu cooler for Intel/AMD Motherboards and CPUs offers a large, high-efficiency fan and pure-copper base material to ensure excellent heat dissipation. It also works with a range of prominent CPUs and motherboards, including Intel Pentium 4 (Socket 775), Intel Pentium 4 (Socket 478), and AMD64 (Socket 754/939/940). When it's set to silent mode, the cooler generates no noise or vibrations.

The large, 120 mm fan inside the cooler's FHS maximizes cooling performance by providing sufficient airflow over a large area, cooling not only the CPU, but the VGA card, Northbridge, FET, and RAM--even at slow rotation speeds. The supplied adjustable fan speed controller (Fan Mate 2) lets you control fan noise as well as performance.

The maximum weight for a cooler (fan) is specified as 450g (.99 pounds) for Intel Socket 775/478 and AMD Socket 754/939/940. Special care should be taken when moving a computer equipped with a cooler that exceeds the relevant weight limit (the CNPS7700 weighs 918g). Zalman Tech is not responsible for any damage that occurs when moving a computer.

What's in the Box
Fan, heat sink assembly, 4 grips (2 each for S-type and L-type), 4 bolts, thermal grease, fan speed controller (Fan Mate 2), double-sided tape (for installing Fan Mate 2), cable for Fan Mate 2, a user's manual (in English and Korean), 1 clip support for Socket 775, 1 backplate for Socket 775, 4 clip-support fixing bolts, 2 clip supports for Socket 478, 2 nipples, 1 backplate for AMD64, and 1 set of washers.

Note: No motherboard components with a height greater than 39mm (1.53-inch), as well as the PSU, disk drives, VGA card, and RAM should be present within a 68mm (2.68 inch) radius from the center of the CPU.


  • 1. Does not generate noise or vibration in Silent Mode.
  • 2. Pure Copper base material ensures excellent heat dissipation.
  • 3. Intel Pentium 4 (Socket 775), Intel Pentium 4 (Socket 478), and AMD64 (Socket 754/939/940) compatible design for broad compatibility.
  • 4.. The large 120mm fan inside the FHS maximizes cooling performance by providing sufficient airflow even at slow rotation speeds.
  • 5. The large 120mm fan provides air flow over a large area, cooling not only the CPU, but the VGA card, Northbridge, FET, and RAM.

5.0 out of 5 stars Replace your generic heatsink with the big Zalman heatsink fan silent cooler combo, April 25, 2006

This review is from: Zalman CNPS7700-CU 120mm 2 Ball Cooling Fan (Personal Computers)
This is very big. It will be like a big wheel that will take up about a quarter of the size of your motherboard (mobo) with your central processing unit (cpu; processor) at its centre. It looks small in the picture but the unit is 136mm in diameter (5.35") and probably the biggest component in your computer next to the mobo and power supply unit (psu). To top it off it requires a full dismantling of the system to install because of a back support plate that goes onto the rear of the mobo. The fan inside the spreading metal heatsink is 120mm fan that can run at around 2000 RPM max creating 32 dB but there is a controller with the unit, called a Fan Mate 2, that allows you to control the speed of the fan and so decrease the noise. Apart from its enormous size the unit weighs in at a whopping 2.7 lbs which is 0.7 lbs heavier than the Zalman USA CNPS7000B-AlCu CPU Fan. So maybe you might want to check out the other model instead unless you are really interested in overclocking cooling,... Read more

This review is from: Zalman CNPS7700-CU 120mm 2 Ball Cooling Fan (Personal Computers)
This was my first CPU heat sink/fan purchase and I have been very pleased! I've been interested in overclocking my P4 2.8GHz processor for quite a while now and my research uncovered this product. The pictures don't do it justice....it is really, really large!

It weighs just over 2 lbs. and has a radius and height of nearly 7 cm, but it's one of the coolest looking units out there, especially the all copper version.

Installation only took about an hour, including removing the old heat sink, cleaning the old thermal paste off of the processor, installing this one, and mounting the fan-speed controller. I have a socket 478 mother board, so the whole process was very easy since you can work with the existing mounting brackets. The only tricky part was getting the screws into the mounting brackets but I don't mind challenges. Also, make sure you pick up some Arctic Silver 5 thermal grease as this is some of the best stuff out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Zalman quiets the leaf blower on the Dell 8400, October 26, 2005

This review is from: Zalman CNPS7700-CU 120mm 2 Ball Cooling Fan (Personal Computers)
My sons computer was so loud that we referred to it as the leaf blower. We assumed that his fan had gone bad (bearing) but found on line that an extremely loud fan was a feature of his Dell dimension 8400. We also found a web site from someone in England that had replaced his Dell cooling tower with the Zalman and had fabulous results. He detailed how to modify the brackets and we had to buy a power cable converter.
The results have been astrounding. The Zalman keeps the CPU so cool that the stock Delta fan never goes above its lowest speed and therefore is very quiet. And the Zalman makes almost no noise.
We are quite happy with the result.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best solution ever, June 16, 2009
This review is from: Zalman ZM-NB47J Fanless Northbridge Heatsink (Personal Computers)
My north bridge fan (that small one on your motherboard) was making noise. Probably because my motherboard is 4 years old the fan started to make super annoying buzzing sounds (They are not healthy for you!). I tried to cleaning it from dust and that didn't help either. After that I got pissed and I decided I'm going to do something about it. Either buy new fan OR I found this Zalman Fanless Cooler!

This thing is just perfect.
- No noise what so ever.
- Easy installation (at least for me :P)
- Keeps it cool (I can't enter my bios but that's not because of it) I can't tell you the temperature I get.

I had it for a week now and there was no problems.And my computer doesn't even have that good air circulation.
I am also an extreme gamer so I play games on max settings all the time and everything is working well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works Perfect!, September 23, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Zalman ZM-NB47J Fanless Northbridge Heatsink (Personal Computers)
Just built an HTPC and needed silence. The stock heatsink fan on my Asus MB was very noisy. Installed this in 10 minutes and silence has been achieved. Just remember you have to have the board out to remove the old clips from behind. The other thing to keep in mind is this sits pretty tall and will get in the way of your video card if the card is long and lined up with the PCI/Express slot. I installed a Sapphire Radeon 5570 and it was close!

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice cooler but check clearance, March 7, 2010

This review is from: Zalman ZM-NB47J Fanless Northbridge Heatsink (Personal Computers)
This was given to me from a fellow tech who couldn't use it on their machine. I'd been considering purchasing some replacement for the chipset cooler on my old board so I figured this would be a perfect candidate for that.

Dumping the parts onto the floor makes installing the cooler look rather confusing. It has brackets that are attached with screws and nuts, then the usual push-pins to install it. However, after skimming over the instructions a bit, the installation is quite simple.

The only real downside to this cooler is it's size. Where it's placed on my Asus A8N board, I'm pretty much limited to my 7600GT (or cards that length). Anything longer in that top PCI-Express slot would bump the cooler.

As for efficiency, I've not done any extensive tests, but it seems to do just fine. I played some videos on Youtube and temps stayed around 30*C which is fine for the chipset. It might spike more with extended use, but I wouldn't worry too... Read more
