thanks, so it is compatiible, but is it the best socket 939 cooler on the market today that has led lighting and superior cooling regardless of the noise?

I can't say if it's best or not but it's on my short list of coolers to buy when I finally upgrade my rig! I'm sure others would mention the Scythe Ninja or Coolermaster XP-120 but the Zalman and those are all very similar. From what I've read the key to the Zalman is to have it pointing directly at a case exhaust fan.

thanks, i think ill juste go with the zalman then, and anyway, im only looking to overclock my 4400+ (@2.2GHz) to a 4800+ (@2.4GHz) and have it stable for every day usage.
