Taisol Cooler for Intel?

Does Taisol's CGKxxxxxx line of triple-tab clip coolers work with Intel FC-PGA CPUs, even though they're specified for AMD chips?

Thanks!

yeah i'm wondering whats a good intel cooler as well. i assume it doesn't need anywhere near as much force and can use quieter fans as well.
 
yup, mine works fine, fits great on abit133 raid board with p111 700. its a cgk742, the outside 2 holes on clip fit perfect on opisite sides.did not have to bend capasitors. lose the factory tape and use arctic silver.with a delta 60x25-37cfm it runs cool at 966 .
 
Yeah, htey work fine. You might want to loosen teh clip just a little bit since the clip pressure is more than what P3s actually need. As long as your MB has the room for it, the CGK742/760 will work great.

MrHelpful(or not so Helpful),

Why not? What makes you say htat you shoudln't use a taisol with a p3?

 
Oh, great...I have the MSI i815E Pro and I think it has the most room around the socket of all the i815E boards out there. Thanks Mike for the tip about the clip pressure - I'll do that as well. But I'm sure my Intel core won't crack as easily as a TB 😉.
