Barton 2500 HSF HELP!

Or if you have an OEM CPU...and maybe want to do no or just some mild overclocking, I have just used the Coolermaster X-Dream HAC-V81 on my Barton 2500+ and it was very easy to put on...I was left thinking...is that it...is it definately on!?...if you have a case with no removable motherboard try or you want to install while in case you may have to slide the PSU along cause of the thumb clip.
 
I use the coolermaster H001 heatpipe. It's easy to put on and works better thant stock hsf. The fan is loud so consider that before you buy. I installed a Zalman bracket w/ 92mm fan over it, and a Nexus fan controller. Now I have all my fans at half speed and is very quiet.
Make sure you set up a shut down temp on your Bios, in case the Nexus goes bad. I already had that happen to me, luckuly it' was a case fan and not the hsf fan.
