Abit AI7

I have the Abit AI7 mobo and i am lookin at gettin the zalman 7000heatsink, with the weight of the zalman on the mobo will the heatsink mobo clips be able to hold the heatsink without breaking off?

yes

ok, because i read in a forum about a intel mobo and the person said that the heatsink was over the weight limit for the cpu heatsink posts, so i was just wondering about abit and i couldnt find it on their site.

Yea im looking to get the 700cu myself once i get the money for it.

Heard it can drop temps by 10c

oh yeah baby, i just got my zalman, and its smaller than what i thought it was gonna be, fits in my case with more than enough clearance, i actually wish it was bigger. but anyways, playing counterstrike running a dedicated server by myself with 31 bots my comp doesnt go over 41C and playing star wars battlefront it goes to 45C and stops but when i turn the game off and let it idle it goes to a rock bottom of 34C and i hope to decrease that but adding a faster front intake case fan in a week.
