i have a pro2-a, will it fit? the last heatsink i bought didnt even fit on my board. i really need a heatsink and fan that do the absolute best job...what are the stats on the alpha pal 6035+ delta compared to the new hedgehog? and how does the super orb rank compared to these two?


Thanks

Hedgehog "Should" fit your mb... its teh same rough size as a pal6035, which is roughly the same size as the cpu socket.

Too bad the Taisol wont fit. I got one on a Duron 700@ 950 with a YSTech 25mm HSF. Just upgraded the stock 10mm HSF with this YSTech. Keeping temps at 35 after some hardcore 3D games that the stock fan was around 44. Hedgehog or PAL6035 should fit the bill for ya. If you dont mind the noise I've heard that FOP38 is also a good HSF. That comes w/ a Delta 25mm fan. Can't complain about the noise too much here with the 25mm YSTech.

noise is not a concern to me. i have my computer on DTS 7.1 digital surround sound, so i wouldnt hear it. i play my games on something thats probably like 100+ dbs hahaha. all i want is maximum "coolage"...if you will. so to clearify, i need the absolute best cooling.

Thanks
