K7s5a which fan and heat sink to use for this board and athlon 1.2 or 1.4 w/266 feb

[vadar]

the title should say it all. Which heatsink/fan should I use for this new board. I want to get either a athlon 1.2 or 1.4 cpu with 266 bus.
Will the swiftechs fit? How about the quiet fans...lets just get owners of this new board and their cooler tips.

I put a retail 1.2 in mine, plenty of room all around.

I was wondering if a Alpha PEP66 would fit myself. But for now I will be using a Alpha PAL6035 as that is what I have now on hand. Although the 8035 looks tempting to me...

I exchanged some posts with an owner of a Swiftech in regards to this board and we came to the conclusion that the big Swifty would most likely NOT fit. The capacitors on the one side are too tall. Other than that I have seen posts of folks with a Thermalright SK-6 on it and I installed a Tai-Sol Ck 760092b (has the 30cfm fan& copper base) on it with no problem. Temps are excellent with the Tai-Sol with a 1.0 GHz chip. Don't know about others. I'd go for the Tai-Sol if you have a choice in the matter. It is rated for 1.4 GHz + . I am not sure if they still offer the 30cfm fan, but there are others.

The Vantec 6035D Copper heatsink fits with no problem as well.

I'd suggest the Thermalright SK-6 to keep it nice and cool.
