I just pulled the trigger on a PII 940... much to the chagrin of my bank account, and I've got this SI 128 laying around... I'm wondering if it's any better than the HSF that ships with the PII. Are these old AM2 coolers up to the challenge of today's quad cores? I was able to run my 4000+ at 1.5v with this thing and stay under 55 degrees. I know the PII HSF has copper heat pipes, but it's got fewer of pipes and a much smaller fan/fins. What do you guys think? I'm guessing it wouldn't be a big deal if I just put it on and compared idle temps.
