|  Good P4 Heatsink Looking for a decent/good heatsink for my p4...its running kinda hot. Not too bad...but I figure I'll play it safe. I don't want one that's so heavy it bends my effing motherboard, though...so if anyone can reccomend a lighter one it would be awesome

  | Re: Good P4 Heatsink if you're going to use Zalman, the 9700 is better. Newegg.com - ZALMAN 9700 LED 110mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler - Retail Also, MX-1 Thermal Compound is REALLY hard to find... believe me, I tried. Your best bet is eBay, since none of the authorized Arctic Cooling retailers have it in stock.

I've got my E6600 overclocked to 3.3GHz right now, and even under a full load it only gets up to 39-40 C with the Zalman 9700 CPU cooler.
