    Silent boat anchor.. I mean CPU Heatsink.

    I ordered myself a new P4-3.0 Northwood processor to replace my 2.4C (Since WoW doesn't like overclocking much). With it I ordered a Zalman CNPS7000B-AlCu Ultra Quiet CPU Cooler.





    This damn thing is HUGE & HEAVY! I did research before I bought it and was told it would fit my motherboard just fine.. but I'm not sure how! LOL I probably won't mess with it until this weekend, but I was surprised how big this thing is.

    That thing is awesome looking. In fact it looks like one of those buildings from HL2.
    Please let us know how it works.

    Yeah.. I can't wait to test out the 'silent' mode. When I put this in, I'm adding the last Vantec Stealth case fan to my system so I'll have 1 60mm Stealth, 2 80mm Stealths on the side, this on the CPU, and then just the PS Fan. Will be interesting to see how 'quiet' it actually is.
