Just buy a new Cooler. You can pick up a new cooler designed for new CPU's.

im looking to buy a new cooler, but i want to overclock my socket 939 in the meantime while i save for a new build next year.

i want to buy a new cooler that is 939 compatible and which i can place into my new build next year. i have had a look at new cpu coolers like phanteks and the new 3 fan zalmans but they dont say there 939 compatible.

should i just look for a second hand 939 cooler then buy a new one next year? i dont really want to waste money on the old system.

any suggestions?
