just got one of these and when i tryed to install it there seems to be a small gap like the cooler is too small for my amd pII 965, is this right? or should i rma it back ?
I have the first version, the AC Freezer 64 Pro for AMD cpus, and I can confirm that the heatsink base does not cover the whole of the cpu, but it still works fine.
Its not an uncommon thing. Intel shipped the P4 Prescotts with a stock heatsink that had a copper column in the middle that left corners and a cap at each edge of the CPU uncovered.
The majority of the heat spreaders are far bigger than the core itself anyway, solong as the heatsink makes good contact where it does touch it should be fine.
right, i got the cooler on but the fan is dead, think it's o.k to run the pc with the side off and have 2x120 exhaust fans on ?

Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
