My first post on this forum :P

 

But here's my question

Does a Zalman 7000A-Cu cool a P4 2.8Ghz 800 Fsb good enough to overclock it to at least 3,2Ghz ???

(Never had a p4 or a 7000A-Cu) <_<

 

 

 

Thx

Its a great cooler for a non oc'd chip but it doesnt fare as well as some of the other all copper heatsinks. But ... It looks awesome and is quiet.I have the 6000cu on my wifes 1700+ and it does fairly well(For no airflow through the case its at 48 to 49c load temps). If you like it go for it and let us know how it works.

Its a good heatsink. Only downfalls are the size and weight of it. If your looking for a good heatsink I would recommend either a Thermalright 947 i belive it is or a Spark 7+ or a volcano 7+. I used a V7+ on mine at 3.6 and never got above 45C full load. pushing 300fsb.

As it says on the package, if overclocking use "normal" mode. I really doubt with that OC it's going to be a problem, even on silent. They run cooler then AMD's and it's the all copper version which means it will cool awesome.
