Zalman CNPS2X Low Profile Heatsink Review

This little heatsink from Zalman is called the CNPS2X and it looks like it should be found on an entry level videocard, motherboard chipset or possibly a miniITX motherboard. It is small. To give an idea of how small, the impeller from a 120mm fan is larger than this entire heatsink.

Never the less, Zalman have made the low profile CNPS2X heatsink for Intel socket LGA115x and AMD socket FM2/FM1/AM2/AM3 processors. Low profile heatsinks are vastly under served by heatsink manufacturers so we’re happy to see more options becoming available to consumers… at Frostytech
