Question for all MSI K8N Neo2 owners

[Cryption]

I am looking to purchase an MSI K8N Neo2 but I wanted to know if my Alpha heatsink, which screws down into four bolt points surrounding a typical socket A mobo will be compatible with this mobo. Does anybody use a heatsink that uses bolt points with their MSI K8N Neo2?

There is a retention bracket that screws down with only 2 screws..I have no idea if that would fit..try asking in the mobo section

I don't think so. Like Nealh said, it has 2 holes not 4.

alpha won't fit.

I just installed the Swiftech MCX64-V and its a quality HSF comparable to an Alpha.

Awesome, thanks for the advice, that's what i'll get

Get the Zalman 7000 CU my friend.

Just wondering, why? I already have a panaflo for it so the noise is not a concern.
