I believe 4 in 1 drivers are for VIA chipsets, and this is an AMD chipset. It shouldn't be an issue.

I read there is a Vantec HSF model very comparable to the FOP 38. They have the same size fan, though, I think... I'm looking for an HSF too.. anyone know about the noiselevel on the Vantec (it's also usually $5 or so cheaper than the 38)..

I'm sure those of you in the overclocking and cooling community have seen the reviews already of Thermaltake's newest heatsink and fan for socket A processors, the Volcano II. I'd like to know if anyone has gotten their grubby little hands on one yet, and especially if and how they measure up...
