what i can say is...Zalman...not all of Zalman HSF is nice...
Correction:
Zalman HSF is all about aesthetics. They don't perform.

Next time, do research before you buy, Zalman heatsink fans has never been a real performer, you don't get what you pay.

Hi im zalman 9700LED here..

E6550 @2.3GHz
GA EP35-DS3
120mm exhaust & 80mm intake.
no-open air. i close my casing

currently my cpu temp is 39'c not oc yet.

i think u need to re-apply the thermal-paste, because im facing the problem like you before.

dont put to much la, and use branded thermal paste..
39°C for an E6550 at stock speed is high.
I'm using a Xigmatek Achilles on my Q6600 B3 overclocked from 2.4GHz ~ 3.2GHz @ 1.36Vcore, and the temperature is only 38°C [Non air-conditioned room].

No offence but seriously, Zalman is nothing but uber crap.

wah..like that ka..

then what supposed E6550 temp would be?

and what is your Q6600 temp without OC?
33°C.
E6550 uses a lot lower VCore than a Q6600 B3.
My Q6600 B3 is overclocked with a raised VCore, while your E6550 is not overclocked and on stock VCore. What does that tell you?

Again, Zalman is crap, throw away your Zalman 9700 LED and go grab a Xigmatek Achilles, then you'll know just how crappy your Zalman 9700 LED is.

A reminder:
Always do a complete research before buying. Else you'll end up like threadstarter.
Don't buy a heatsink fan because it's beautiful, buy a heatsink fan for it's real performance.
