Which cooler??


Recommended Posts

hi i'm new here and i want to buy a cooler that fits my future machine currently it is:

AMD Athlon64 3200+ (2.0 GHz) 512k L2 Cache, Socket 939 (Retail) *Venice*

OCZ Dual Channel Premier Series OCZ4001024PDC-K w/ Heatspreader (2x 512MB DDR400 Matched Pair, CAS 2.5-3-3-7)

DFI LanParty UT nForce4 Ultra-D, Dual Gigabit LAN, SATA-RAID, Firewire, DDR400 (Socket 939)

and i want to get a cooler for the cpu, i want a Zalman CNPS7000B-Cu LED Quiet Copper CPU Cooler with Blue LED Fan (Socket 462 / 478 / 754/ 939 / 940) or a Zalman CNPS7700-Cu Quiet Copper CPU Cooler (Socket 478 / 754 / 775 / 939 / 940 / ) but i'm not sure if they will fit properly withj all the other components installed....

or if can anyone pick out a cooler that is good and fits on the mobo from here?

thanks in advance

 

BTW do these zaleman coolers come with thermal paste??? or gel??

Hi, ive got a XP3000 Venice, im currently running it at DDR500 at 2.25ghz and its only running around 41 degrees full load while running Prime95, with the Reference cooler from AMD.

 

Are you desperate to have a cooler with a blue L.E.D fan?

i'm gona go for a zalman 7000, but i'm questioning the weight of the copper version (700 some g if i recalled properly) since my case is a tower case i dunno if i would like to have something that heavy dangling in midair, secured to the mobo through 2 screws and a backplate, so i want to know what is the performance difference between the AlCu version and the Cu version? becides that the AlCu version is 400 something g....
