Will ECS K7S5A be able to use an Alpha PAL8045 hsf?

[Egrimm]

I read somewhere that there isn't that much space around the cpu-socket on the board, and I thought that some of you might know if the Alpha (or the MC462A for that matter) would fit.

Yes, just installed it in my brand new board.
Now if only I can get it to boot up Windows

You shouldn't have any trouble. There is a lot of room around the CPU socket on the ECS, and the MC462A fits with room to spare on mine.
