Heatsink For C2D

Yes it is. Intel wouldn't give you a stock heatsink that doesn't work at stock frequencies. You can even undercolt your CPU to have it run cooler.

well.. I remember the Stock HSF for the 3.4ghz Presscot not being able to cool the cpu properly at stock Speeds. What temps do you see with the stock HSF? on stock Speeds
 
You're looking at opposite ends of the spectrum with that comparison. The Prescott is one of the hottest and inefficient chips ever made, while the Conroe is the exact opposite of that.

I never tried the stock heatsink because I installed my Freezer 7 right away. However, I'd imagine that it's adequate because a lot of people overclock using the stock heatsink and get satisfactory temperatures.

LMAO, how about my Pentium D 820, throttles with everything at stock.

ON TOPIC: yes, it will be perfectly fine, but could be a little loud for your tastes.
