Stylish, high-performance cooling for your processor: ZALMAN CNPS9X Optima 2 combines addressable RGB lighting, DTH (Direct Touch Heatpipes) technology, optimized PWM control, and a quiet 120 mm fan with a maximum noise level of just 29.5 dB for stable temperatures and an attractive build aesthetic.
Addressable RGB for stunning effects
The 120 mm ARGB fan shines through white matte blades, giving your build a striking visual style with motherboard sync.
DTH: direct heatpipe contact with the CPU
Direct Touch Heatpipes ensure fast heat transfer from the processor to the fin stack and reduce thermal resistance for lower temperatures.
Quiet 120 mm PWM fan
Optimized PWM control keeps noise to a minimum—down to 29.5 dB—while delivering reliable cooling performance even under load.
Refine your PC’s performance and looks. The CNPS9X Optima 2 delivers efficient tower cooling with direct heatpipe contact on the CPU for rapid heat dissipation and even cooling. A matte black top cover and chrome-plated heatpipes enhance both aesthetics and corrosion resistance.
Addressable RGB lighting shines through the white matte blades of the 120 mm fan, letting you match colors with the rest of your components. Thanks to PWM regulation, the fan smartly balances low noise and high cooling performance, while the included ZM-STC8 thermal compound minimizes thermal resistance between the CPU and the cooler base.
