Looking to get the FX-9590 and overclock it myself, which I still have yet to learn how to do, and it needs a liquid cooling system seeing as it has a really high clock speed and must generate a lot of heat. So far, I've seen cooling systems that are compatible with AM3, but not AM3+ that the Vishera structure is designed for. However, I also looked up the difference between AM3 and AM3+ and saw that AM3+ processors can be put into AM3 sockets, so my question is whether or not this cooling system would fit on the processor:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

AM3 and 3+ can use both cooling sockets so it'll work
