Zalman CNPS12X CPU Cooler Review

Introduction

We saw the Zalman CPNS12X for the first time during the CES 2011, and we were impressed by its size, since it is the world’s first CPU cooler with three fans. The manufacturer has finally released this cooler, and it is time for us to review it.
The CNPS12X’s huge box can be seen in Figure 1.
