hi will a Zalman CNPS9500-AM2 Aero Flower fit on a Asus A8N32-SLi Deluxe board?

what i mean is there space for it and is it easy to put in?

thx for any help

yep should do m8 check with some one who has it though

Yes, it doesn't use the same mounting system as the 9500 (939) cooler does though it uses clips not screws

The am2 mounting system is different from 939, why would you want an AM2 cooler for a 939 board

as i stated before the zalman is compatable with socket 939

check here http://www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/view.asp?idx=202&code=005

it works with the 939 as well Mikey1280

yes had a look on reviews saying it uses cliping to mount, thats why i wanted to know if it will fit on me mobo.

thx guys

Yep just seen that, my bad. I still wouldnt buy it myself

Tosk · 4 Jun 2006 at 20:48

why wouldnt you go for it? mikey?

here is a picy of the clip

Mikey1280 · 4 Jun 2006 at 22:37

I'd rather have a scythe ninja myself, a better cooler

Tosk · 4 Jun 2006 at 23:49

ah yes a lot of ppl say there a great cooler, im still not sure what cooler to go for . thx anyway

buy it! looks better than a shaven haven! probably cools the cpu better, too...
i'm getting one in a couple of weeks. it'll facilitate the eventual transfer to AM2.
i hope zalman do a nickel plated gpu cooler to match!

They are extremely good - I have an original CNPS9500, and I would imagine that it's probably better.

However, the Scythe mine is better than the Scythe ninja and the Scythe ninja is better than the Zalman. So that's my advise.
