What do you guys think of this HSF? Has anyone had any experience with it? I've looked at a couple of reviews, but they didn't say what kind of processors it could cool, and to what temperature idle/load. Just says socket A. This must be a very good heatsink, being all copper, I imagine. I want it to adaquately cool my AthlonXP 2000+ and maybe let me do a bit of overclocking, say to 2200+ level.

That Zalman cooler is mostly meant as a "quiet" cooling solution. I tested it on a xp 1700+ and it would allow some light oc'ing, but not heavy.

For overclocking I'd suggest something like an SLK800, SK7 or AX-7 (in that order) and get a decent 80mm fan.
