Hello,
What are some easy-install heatsinks? I'm building my first pc, and I don't really want to use a shim (also don't want to kill a 1.33 GHz Athlon). I need a heatsink that's easy to install, puts out a medium to low dB level, and can keep a scorching Athlon cool. I might overclock a little (maybe to 1.4 GHz, just because). I thought I had decided on the TaiSol CGK760092, but I read in another forum that it takes a lot of pressure to attach the clips (enough that you think you'd crack the core). Also, I don't want to spend more than $40 or so. Any opinions?
Thanks in advance,
Endarkened
