Zalman is one of the old timers on the fan market with a loyal fan base. These estimates the individual design, high performance , combined with low volume , high innovation and good workmanship. Thus can claim within the leading group of manufacturers for years.
The completely passive - ie without fan - cooling , a cube built FX100 cooling tower made recently for a big wow factor , because by this time it was hard to imagine modern processors to cool only heat pipes and fins without one or use even two fans. This FX70 Zalman now offers even a clever alternative.

The FX70 falls at first glance, something conventional , and at first seems to be a classic representative of current Tower cooler . Six nickel-plated heatpipes blackish – silver project more than 16 cm in height and also wear a nickel-plated block of aluminum fins . However, from the incorporated Zalman details results in the special properties of the FX70 .
So it is striking that between the Fins a relatively large distance was allowed to let pass the existing housing in the airflow unobstructed. If the fin density is higher , you would have to use a fan, which ensures a sufficiently high static pressure so that the airflow passes through the heat sink.
If you look closely , also noticed that the slats are aligned slanted , in the inner region as well as on the front and back of each in the opposite direction . Zalman calls this arrangement Twist fin design and achieved in this changing orientation of a reinforcement of the natural Konvektionseffekts , after which heated air rises to the top.
Notes: As with all passive coolers is recommended necessarily an active ventilation of the case , which generates sufficient airflow to carry away the heat from the FX70 from the computer case .
For cooling of high-performance Intel processors for socket LGA2011 or LGA1366 and AMD CPUs with more than 80 watts TDP Zalman recommends only the use of one or two additional 120 mm fan , which produces clamps for attachment of a standard specimen with 25 mm frame depth in the delivery are included.
