Celey 1.2 Tualatin - Heatsink/fan Suggestions?

[williamfm]

Hi all - I've got the Tualatin-ready ASUS TUSL2-C mb and just ordered the Celeron Tualatin 1.2 cpu. Obviously, I'm planning on overclocking this thing.

Any suggestions for a heatsink/fan? I'm looking for something relatively quiet.

thanks...

A glaciator is a very good/quiet heatsink....For about 40$ you can get an Alpha Pal8045T and mount a slow 80mm fan on it.....thats about as good as low noise air cooling will get you.....

What socket is the chip using?

socket 370

I use the Pal 6035, a bit smaller than the newer 8035, but with only a small, quiet 26cfm fan, I get the results below. If you don't mind noise go all out and get a large 50cfm sunon to perch on the top of that Pal 8035 and see if you can get higher with better cooling (then come back and rub it in Pinky's lazy face :)).

Does that Asus board have the 4 holes around the socket like an AMD board does? If it doesn't have the holes, then you can't use the Alpha PAL 8045 because it's mounting system requires the 4 holes. You could use a SK6 with the fan of your choice, loud or quiet. It would also be on my short list of good hsf's to put on a proc.

Would it be wise to add an adapter for 120mm? hehehe

I thought those 4 mounts were removeable? I can't imagine them being permanent. The Pal 6035 has 4 cushions I had to remove because they were too high for the tullie... beside, the IHS is large enough and smooth enough to use flush on most heatsinks without any additional support needed.

That depends on your level of insanity ;).

I'm insane in other ways that making even more noise eminate from my already too noisy box.

whats the best performing paste to smear in your face?

[Yodums]

lol I love the noise the system makes hehe

[ol' man]

Hey pinky, I just bought one of those pals today. They are a good cooler for these toolys. If you take your IHS off I bet you could hit 1600MHz like me:) Did you see my pics.

Man if you could fit the swifty or pal 8045 on these chips they would be ideal. The pal6035 keeps up quite nicely though.

Alphas are nice. The Glaciator is nice. The MCX370 is decent. I like my Dr. Thermal and the Arkua copper core heatsinks look good as well. The 8045 can't be mounted on any Socket 370 board because of the lack of the holes. The Glaciator 1 or 2 is probably what I'd look at first.

True, I posted a reply about the top HSFs suggestion to auky a while back.. Both Swifty MC462 series and Alpha Pal 8045 don't fit on the socket 370 boards. They are specifically designed for AMD boards. On the other hand, Thermalright SK-6 fit well on both Socket A, Socket 370, even on the slockets.
Sk-6 not only beats all those popular HSFs like Glaciator, Volcano series, Gladiator, Alpha pal 6035, etc., but performs equal or better(in some case) than the MC462A and Pal 8045. It is also cheaper than either one of them. Since he wants quiet HSF, he can go with SK-6 w/ 80mm panaflo fan instead of Delta38.

and then add a fan of your choice.

Going by how well this alpha cooled this chip I am assuming that one of those SK6's is what I would need to get this chip atable at 1.775v setting instead of 1.825v. In reality the vcore is @ 1.84v when set at 1.825. I agree the SK6 would be the best for this chip.

I also knew that the alpha 8045 wouldn't fit on this mobo. As I have said the more copper you can put on this chip the better:)

Could you explain this... I was not aware the Pal 804(?)5 was a slot A cooler only.

[Sklathill]

Actually, the 8045 is not a slot A cooler. :) I don't think a company can make any money making a slot A cooler. :)

Socket 370 coolers only mount with socket lugs. WIth AMD boards, you can mount coolers that use either the socket lugs or the four holes. With The P4 boards, you only have an option of the four holes (different from the 4 holes on an Athlon board.) The MC462, the Zalman 5k, and the Alpha 8045 cannot be mounted using socket lugs. Take a look at a review of any of them an you'll see what I mean.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the SK6. Also, the Dynatrons get very good reviews, though I have yet to see one of them for myself.

hi Pinky,

I think Ol'man is busy.. donno what's he up to.. :rolleyes: anyways, yeah unlike Alpha Pal6035, Alpha 8045 is indeed designed for socket A boards. The bottom plate of this HSF has 4 screw mounting bolts on each corner of the base.

Note the 4 drilled holes around the AMD chip socket..

And here's the back of the mobo predrilled hole for these kinds of HSF to fit on nice and tight.

Obviously this is to keep the HSF in place and insure good contact with the CPU. Swiftech MC462 series are the same way.. =)

[ol' man]

I think Ol'man is busy.. donno what's he up to..

Uh I was at class:D

[[OC]_SR20DE]

ok =)

[Yodums]

Bah class is boring did you sleep eheh

[Dtown]

Nice pics nurse! They need to start teaching an overclock class!
Now I's stay awake for that one! :D :o

Thanks.. :o It's good to post pics.. i like visuals! easy to understand and looks pretty.. haha =)

LOL I love visuals too I don't like any review/products sites that dont have a visual just bores me out.
