some people said low performance

it's universal, should be able to fit it as long as u r not on NF4/Ultra/SLI mobo, they r worried as blocking the graphic card

what i meant was the CPU Heatsink issit stock?if aftermarket ones the CM blue ice II might be blocking your CPU heatsink

The Ai7 (and most of the p4 based mobo) uses the horse shoe hook type instead of the push pins. Make sure the cooler ur goin 2 buy is hook type compatible

I'm using TR NB1 for my Ai7.

my nb fan got screwed up as well
now using after market fan to blow towards the heat sink
is it ok ?

Its ok. Seriously, I have one here the fan not working at all. I just uplug that NB fan, and let it be. I won't be that hot. And that rig is 100% stable (2/47 full load!)

alright i'll leave it then
thx 4 d info
actually have PM a seller in bulk section about this thermal take nb cooler
but he din reply my PM so i'll save rm40 lor

yup a passive heatsink on the p4 north bridge is sufficient..even on modest overclock

soo u guys suggest only cheap heatsink ?? or use nb1 heatsink ??

Actually the standard stock NB heatsink is ok already, if you're just doing some minimal overclocking. I use NB 1 because I did some heavy overclocking when I was on phase change. It's all up to you, like kucingfight said modest overclocking, just stick with the stock heatsink. Unless you're going for some heavy overclocking or some fancy looking NB heatsink.

i put blue ice on my nb when i was using abit nf7-s
