    I'm looking to get a new heatsink for the AMD 3500+ S939 on it's way to me. I was looking at this because the Thermalright SLK-948 (I think thats what it's called) isn't compatible with the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum motherboard.
    Also, I'm looking for a new case, Preferably an Antec Super Lanboy or likewise. Anyone know any shops in town that stock this for a reasonable price?

    Thanks.

    I just had a look around the overclockers forums, I didn't find a mention of that particular cooler, gigabyte coolers do fairly well.

    If you want a ThermalRight cooler the XP-120 will fit your board. (just need to bend a capacitor) Neo 2

    Zalman CPU coolers are almost as good as the thermalright one probably quiter too. Think they have 120mm out the 7700. I have two 7000's cooper ones there very good. Ones on a MSI socket 754 board the other on Abit 939. one

    I was looking at the Zalman CNPS7000B-Cu (or whatever the model Peats stock) in Peats. I have a Zalman Flower heatsink now, and it's pretty good. I also got a Coolermaster Centurion 5 case. :D

    I don't really want to go bending capacitors just for the sake of a heatsink. I probably wont get the heatsink for a few weeks anyway. I need money. :(
