The CNPS5100-Al / CNPS5100-AlCu / CNPS5100-Cu coolers come with an adjustable
fan speed connector (FAN MATE 1) for allowing you to vary the CPU fan speed to
create an optimal cooling environment.
1. Features
1) Zalman’s CPU Coolers do not generate noise and vibration in silent mode.
2) The heat dissipating material of the Flower HeatSink (FHS) is pure copper or aluminum.
3) Innovative FHS(Flower HeatSink) design offers lower noise and thermal resistance.
4) With the included adjustable fan speed connector, the user can freely adjust the CPU fan's RPM.
5) Zalman’s CPU Coolers cool a CPU to a temperature sufficiently below the temperature required by
the CPU manufacturer without generating noise.
6) Zalman’s CPU Coolers offer very stable operation of a CPU in an OVERCLOCKED environment.
* If you try OVERCLOCKING, please make sure that the fan is in Normal Mode.
* Zalman Tech. Co., Ltd. is not responsible for any damage to systems or CPUs caused by CPU
OVERCLOCKING.

* The specifications of any product may change without prior notice to improve the performance thereof.
Note 2) This cooler cannot be mounted on a mainboard that does not have four holes around the socket.
Also, Socket 478 mainboards are not supported.
5. Please keep the following in mind for a noiseless computer
1) For a noiseless computer, a Noise Prevention (NP) Power Supply, a NP HDD, a NP CD-ROM and
a NP VGA CARD should be used together with this cooler.
2) Zalman affixes a Computer Noise Prevention System (CNPS) Mark to each of its parts and
components used for noiseless computers.
3) If a high-performance VGA card is required, it is preferable to use a NP VGA Card having a VGA FHS.
4) When buying a new VGA card, it is recommended to buy a fanless VGA card.
6. Caution
1) The CNPS5100-XX can be mounted only on a mainboard having four holes around the CPU socket.
2) For mainboards on which the CNPS5005-XX can be mounted, please refer to the list of approved
mainboards on Zalman’s web site (www.zalman.co.kr/english/product/ccc/usmainboard.htm).
3) If the RPM of the CPU fan cannot be measured, please update the BIOS to the latest version. For
more information on updating your BIOS, please refer to you the mainboard manufacturer’s web
site (There are some mainboards that cannot measure the RPM of fans in Silent Mode. However, this
will not affect the performance.

2. Check whether or not nipples (spacers) for installing a CPU cooler are mounted between the mainboard and
the computer case.

(1) Insert one of the provided bolts A into a tapered
spring as shown in Figure 2, and insert the bolt
A into an appropriate mounting hole (See Figure 1)
of the cooler body. Repeat until four bolts are in
stalled in the cooler body. (Caution! The diameter
of the spring increases from one end to the other
end. The end of the spring having a smaller
diameter should be directed to the head of the bolt
as shown in Figure 3.)
(2) Spread the thermal grease, which is provided together
with the cooler, on the surface of the CPU core.

1. First, check whether your CPU is a P4 CPU or an AMD CPU. Then, depending on the type of CPU,
insert the bolts (A or B) into the appropriate holes in the cooler body (See Figure 1).

(1) Detach the mainboard from the computer case. Mount the provided nipples, bolts C, and washers (A or B)
on the mainboard as shown in Figures 5 and 6, then reattach the mainboard to the computer case.
(Caution! Different washers are used depending on the size of the holes formed around the CPU socket on the
mainboard. That is, if the size of the holes is 6 mm as shown in Figure 6(A), washer A and B is used, and if the
size of the holes is 4 mm as shown in Figure 6(B), only washer B is used. A bolt with a washer is used for the
upper part of the mainboard and another bolt with a washer isused for the lower part of the mainboard.)
(3) Check the locations of the holes around the socket
and those of the bolts A mounted in the mounting
holes, and then place the FHS horizontally on the
center of the CPU.
(4) To make the FHS completely contact the CPU core
(this is important to protect the CPU core from
overheating), tighten each bolt A by one turn in the
order shown in Figure 2 (i.e., in a diagonal sequence)
with a screw driver until they no longer go in
(as shown in Figure 4).

(2) Insert one of the provided bolts B into a tapered spring
as shown in Figure 5, and insert the bolt B into an appropriate
mounting hole of the cooler body (See Figure 1). Repeat
until four bolts are installed in the cooler body.
(Caution! The diameter of the spring increases from
one end to the other end. The end of the spring having
a smaller diameter should be directed to the head of
the bolt as shown in Figure 7.)
(3) Spread the thermal grease, which is provided together with the cooler, on the surface of the CPU core.
(4) Check the locations of the nipple holes on the mainboard and the locations of the bolts B, and then place
the Cooler horizontally on the center of the CPU.
(5) For Pentium 4 CPUs :
To make the FHS completely contact the CPU
core (this is important to protect the CPU core
from overheating), tighten each bolt B by one
turn in the order shown in Figure 5 (i.e., in a
diagonal sequence) with a screw driver. The
bolts are mounted so that the height of the bolt
heads is the same as the height of the mounting
holes (as shown in Figure 8).
(Caution! If the height of the bolt head is much lower than that of the mounting hole, the
mainboard and the CPU may be damaged.)
For AMD CPUs :
To make the FHS completely contact the CPU
core (this is important to protect the CPU core
from overheating), tighten each bolt B by one
turn in the order shown in Figure 5 (i.e., in a
diagonal sequence) with a screw driver until
they no longer go in (as shown in Figure 9).

1. Connect FAN MATE 1 (adjustable fan speed connector) to the 3-pin connector of a fan as
shown in Figure 10.
2. Connect FAN MATE 1 to the 3-pin CPU fan connector of the mainboard.
3. Turn on the computer after assembly is finished.
4. When booting a computer in which FAN Mate 1 is used, an alarm sound may be generated
by a system monitoring program to indicate that the rotation of the CPU fan is slow.
If this happens, you may turn the speed control knob fully clockwise to increase the fan
speed, set“CPU Fan Detected”to“Disabled”in the BIOS settings, or set the slowest
rotation of the CPU fan in the system monitoring program to less than or equal to 1500RPM.
Note 1) Some mainboards do not boot if the rotation of the CPU fan is below a certain
number of RPM. If the BIOS settings are updated, Silent Mode can be used. For
more information on updating BIOS , please refer to your mainboard manufacturer’’ s
web site.
5. First check what CPU you are using, then check the CPU compatibility list on page 2. When
the speed control knob is turned fully counter-clockwise, the fan speed is minimum and the
fan operates in silent mode. You can select the desired fan speed by turning the knob.
Note 2) FAN MATE 1 has been specifically designed for the fan of this product.
Zalman Tech. Co., Ltd. is not responsible for any damage to systems or CPUs
caused by using it with other types of fans.
