Abstract: As for Zalman CNPS10X Performa, we totally admire it. In fact, this product has only one drawback: unbalanced fan with “floating” noise level. It is up to you to decide how significant this issue is for your particular case, but it won’t be a problem to pair a 44.90-dollar cooler (which is an unusually low price for..
Affordable, Build Quality, Excellent Performance for a Cheap Cooler, Very Quiet, Not too big
Installation is a little more involved than other coolers, Availability
The Zalman CNPS10X Performa surprised me with its performance regardless of its cheap price tag. Even with less surface area and lighter materials, the Performa is still a very well made cooler for the money. Throughout the reviewing and testing, the...
Excellent Cooling, Dual Fan Capability Included, PWM Fan, Great price point,
None, Gold
I was very satisfied with the Zalman CNPS10X Performa. It performed very well; the smooth and flat copper base helped keep the CPU core temperature only a few degrees above ambient temperature while idling. Under load, the temperatures were still kept ...

Universal mounting system fits most modern socket platforms, Extremely quiet operation even under load, Great "bang for the buck"
Cooler may be too large for some systems, Some assembly required

Abstract: With an expected street price near the $30 mark, the CNPS10X Performa is a great all-around cooler. In its stock form, the Performa should please quiet-computing and mainstream users, while enthusiasts can opt for a dual-fan configuration for extreme performance.
Fairly low profile for a 120mm tower, Low speed adapter has large 1 Watt resistor, Excellent performance, comparable with the 10X Extreme, Costs $25 less than the 10X Extreme
None
The Zalman 10X Performa had no problem whatsoever keeping the hot temps of the 130 watt Core i7 920 to manageable levels. The 10X Extreme remains the best air cooler I’ve used with the i7 920, and the Performa was only three degrees higher. The 10X...
