hmm---Sounds like the Jcpenny pillow is the way to go......

found it I think after searching amds site for a while...seems to be 1.75...thanks to those who responded...

I have a the Athlon thunderbird socket A..and I'm just trying to figure out what the motherboard Vcore voltage should be set at? I'm not overclocking just running it standard...? thanks

Yeah after looking at it real close --it seems like the cpu fan would be trying to suck air onto the heatsink...and then the power supply vent is right above that would be sucking too...doesn't sound like it will provide very good cooling....off to the computer store I go....heheh

Thanks..going to give it a try tomorrow...the motherboard tray slides out..so I'll keep an eye on these things....going to add an extra fan or two for extra cooling.

I currently have an INwin a500 mid tower case and the power supply is mounted vertically and I want to put an athlon chip and mobo in this case..do I need to get a different case where the power supply is mounted horizontal? or can I use this one?
