How's the fit, I think I remember reading(Awhile ago) that you had to shave off some of the feet to get a sneg fit, is this still true

<< Why not remove the feet and use the spacers attached on the Athlon? >>

lol yeah do that silly ;) SocketA chips have their spacers. You want the bottom of your heatsink perfectly flat to fit a SocketA CPU.

For FC-PGA370 chips you need spacers, but you don't need or want them for a SocketA.
