i am looking for a cooler for this mainboard and cpu-type because the cooler i ordered with the board was too big and the cooler delivered with the board are only for 2.7 ghz so i am looking for a cooler who can handle 3.2 ghz and fits on the board, because the place arround the socket is very small.

hope my english is good enoug to be readable.

thx already robo47

nobody who knows which cooler could fit on the board?

hmm

is it possible to buy the standard-boxed-coolers from intel anywhere? (without CPU)

I would TEST the smaller cooler delivered with the board and find out for sure, based on the possibility that it MIGHT work, and the CPU has thermal protection so that if it doesn't work, you won't hurt anything.

have already tested it, after about 20 minutes of running @ 100 % the system crash and the temperature in the bios after reboot is between 67°C and 69°C which is too much for a room-temp of about 23-27°C and in summer the room has sometimes temp's from 30-40°C

and i don't want to kill my cpu :p
