Coolermaster Jet 7 and my A7N8X Deluxe

[Anthony Dyer]

Hello Everyone,

I'm about to upgrade my CPU from an Athlon XP 2100+ to an Athlon XP 3000+.
With that, I'm going to buy a new cooler. The coolermaster Jet 7 catches my
eye.

My question is whether it will fit or not. The cooler occupies a footprint
greater than that of the cpu socket and I'm very aware of the large
capacitors sitting quite close to the socket.

Hope someone can help

My question is whether it will fit or not.

It's so tall! Will the height fit into your case? That looks like it
could be a problem in itself. I got a Zalman, (478 socket) which was
quiet and cools really well. (Don't know if it would wok for you.)
