zalman = too big, too heavy

7000a-alcu
1. i bought alcu cos cu is too heavy. (n many reviews alcu beats(?) cu in performance) but even alcu is bit too heavy imo n too big, barely fits in my 8k3a with aopen hq45 case, didn't buy another one cos it wont fit on nf7.
2. inner part of the hsf gets really dirty too easily due to very thin fins in circle, already cleaned once after 1-2 mths use.

80c video hsf+heatpipe
1. its too heavy. i have two n they both bend the cards a bit. the hsf on zalman 80c is at least 10x size of stock hsf i replaced. it make u wonder do they have to be this big?
2. optional fan doesnt screw on fully.

i think zalman hsf should be lighter/smaller..
 
They're supposed to be cool and quiet, and their tradeoff was size and weight.
 
meh, i have zalmans in both my comps and i dont have any problems with them being big, and i go to alot of lan parties....
