hello i have the p5nd2-sli board and have bought a zalman zm-nbf fanless cooler does anyone know if such a cooler would be ok on this board???

Ive just fitted this cooler and can confirm its better than the stock one

It's actually quite OK to run the PWM on these over 100C - it's fine at those sorts of temperatures. If you need a significant drop in temperature, I would look at the new Thermalright chipset cooler which is extremely good, although it is quite expensive for what it is.
