Removing my Zalman cooler

Vakas · 19 Mar 2017 at 23:50

I want to remove my current cooler the Zalman cnps11 extreme but it's bolted down and I don't know what I did with the Allen key I've tried some others but no luck.

Where can I get the right key from?

From what I can see Zalman doesn't use metric so it will be an imperial hex key. On another one of their coolers they use a 3/32" allen key. So grab yourself a cheap set of imperial wrenches, might be able to get a set from the £ shop. I might be wrong but its where I would start.

If you can't get to a pound shop then one of the keys in this set should fit. It's most likley the same kit you can pick up in a pound shop.

I have ordered a set I think it is a 3/32'' its coming tomorrow so i will keep you posted.

I received my wrench set and yes the 3/32'' worked wonders...
