Yes, it works just fine!! Think about it, when you buy a heatsink, what are you buying? SHAPED METAL! Buy some metal, cut some fins. Tadaa, better heatsink, lower price.Quote:

Only snag is that it might get in the way of my vid card heatsink (ZM80C-HP) so it 'iffy' at best.;) :) Will look into it though, thanks!:cool:Quote:

You can read all about the zalman NB heatsink here www.zalman.co.kr/usa/product/nb32j.htm but to tell the truth there have been a lot of mixed views about weather or not cooling the NB helps at all.Quote:

Nah, it's not an RMA - that would take weeks! I'm too impatient for that. :D It's an over-the-counter exchange, with a retail box and everything. :) (except I might get a dud of an OCer, so I still have to be somewhat careful)Quote:

No your not, its the high temps, that make you feel that way. On a real hot day all I feel like doing is sleeping. Any way back to the subject at hand, I hope the zalman will fit and who knows you might just take over 2nd place. Which would get another person I won`t say who to finally get his water cooling going.:DQuote:
