Well, I picked up this CPU Cooler. I have a 2.4Ghz Intel Quad Core and this CPU cooler doesn't say it supports it. It appears to be pretty heavy duty, and currently I don't plan on overclocking the CPU. Do you think I'll be ok to use it?

Well, I took a minute to look at the other coolers, this appears to be exactly the same, except for a fan speed difference which is very slight. Other CPU Cooler

I'm guessing I shouldn't have any issues. I hope

Yes, that will work of the Q6600. That cooler will work for LGA 775 but I have to say it is a waste using that cooler and not overclocking. Were you having temperature issues with your stock cooler? Under stock speeds the stock HSF should perform just fine. As an alternitive I would recommend this cooler: http://www.newegg.co...N82E16835186009.

Well, I haven't made my mind up on OCing yet or not, it'll happen eventually. So far the cooler is running fine, with BOINC running on all four cores, it's at 54C. Turning that off, it cools down pretty quickly. It's down to about 44C now. The AS5 I have on it hasn't had a chance to be broken in yet either.
