Merry Christmas everyone! (Zalman rules)

[beatle]

I just wanted to wish everyone here a Merry Christmas. I've spent a lot of time here this year and enjoyed nearly every minute.

To keep this thread out of OT, I got a CNPS-7000A and a ZM-NB47J for my comp this morning. Both are great and silent. I'm over 8C cooler now than with the stock Intel cooler, even @ 100MHz and .05v more! Did I also mention they're much quieter? They barely fit on the IS7 without touching, but there's enough room. In addition, you can use the existing stock spring clip for installing the NB heatsink, just gently persuade it into place.

Nice! I just o/ced my P4 2.6C (still testing but im at 3.2 with 248FSB), so I will probably buy a new one soon, and I was looking at that Zalman. I have a Zalman NB cooler for my older box and it works great! The included HS on my ASUS P4P800 Deluxe's NB is fine tho, it keeps it cool and its passive! Merry christmas!

Well, my cpu didn't hold @ 3.1GHz, but I think that's a function of the CPU, not the cooler. I'm still prepared for the summer months though, and the lack of noise is great.
