Im upgrading to a athlon 64 3000, I have a good cpu cooler for my athlon xp 2000, are they compatible with the athlon 64's?

Most likely no. There are some after market coolers out there that are compatible with most sockets.

What heatsink is it?
 
I think its a thermaltake volcano....but not sure and the mobo/cpu/fan is at work so cant check right now...that sucks was hoping I could use the cooler
 
Odds are that it is a socket A/478 cooler that will not work on a Socket 939 cpu.

Just get a Zalman CNPS7700-AlCu from 1coolpc.com for $35.00 shipped (just make sure it will work with your motherboard.)
