[Doc_T]

Won't fit.

I've got an A7V266, go get a Thermalright SK-6, they are a lot better in my opinion then that Alpha's and I think they cost less too. And I had no problems putting on the Sk-6, even though it is pretty heavy.

TY for your input Hpotter which fan do you have on yours? I see them from 27cfm up to 50.1cfm?

Oh yea this is prob a silly ? but copper shim would kinda be senseless with a copper base huh?

For now I have the black label delta. But I will be changing to Water Cooling in the next week or so. I'm not really sure how much cfm it pushes, but it's a lot.

I'm using a ThermalRight SK6 with a Delta50Cfm @7v, coz absolutly annoing @12v, and the Cpu temp @full load 24/7 @1.6Ghz 1.85v is never above 40 degree C, but remember, a good case airflow is always needed

Oh one more thing on the A7V266 MBM reads 2 sensors how do i know which one is CPU temp? ive looked through all the books that came with it and cant figure it out

Sensor 1 reads 28c
Sensor 2 reads 54c
CPU @ 1547Mhz
+3.3V @ 3.41V
+5V @ 5.00V
+12V @ 12.77V
-12V @ -12.87V
-5V @ -4.97V

Take a look on the MBM website down/left, where are present all the Brand/Model supported with the respective sensors

Cool Doors TY Snesor 1 is my case Temp and Sensor 2 is my CPU temp Is 52c hi for CPU? i just have the standard HSF that cam e with the XP 1800+

Well, 52 degree C @full load for a Cpu @ stock Speed & Voltage is good, but not at all if you plan to OC it, so you have to go with another HeatSink, and if possible ArticSilver III thermal paste
