Hi,
I am going to be upgrading to a Phenom II 720BE (AM3 Socket) and an Asus M4A78-E motherboard (socket AM2+/AM3).
Now, I'm not sure on the compatibility of heatsinks with said sockets.
Will any AM2 compatible heatsink work?
Or does it have to be AM2+?
Also, what heatsink would you guys recommend? I plan on overclocking, I'm hoping to be able to reach ~3.6-3.8GHz, but that depends on if I get a crappy chip or not.
Thanks in advance.
