Pentagram has been a leading supplier of communication products for the european market in the last years. Now they are entering the CPU heatsink business with a load of new products. The NXC 100-Cu heatsink uses the proven "flower" design in an all-copper approach. The cooler supports all current CPU sockets and comes with an easy to use fan controller.

I dont want to run down this cooler, but i had it before i got my watercooling and the quality is bad: Someday one rotor blade tore off from the fan and the cooler was vibrating, so i had to buy a new one, although i only needed a new fan.Then i bought the 80mm cooler from this company because i was cheaper and mounted the fan onto the 100mm: http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/182 , but anyway, what do you exspect from a 14.99€ cpu-cooler?I bought it, because i thought it is a Zalman.

No, this is not a offshoot of Zalman, they just copy Zalman's designs, change one or two things and then call the design their own.

This looks EXACTLY like a Zalman... It probably is and then they are like... Uhh... we changed the ratio of copper and aluminum to .01 more.... yeah....
