Just built a system with the Zalman and P4C800E-Deluxe yesterday...
Work of caution this sucker is HEAVY! I couldn't believe the weight of the
package when it arrived. You might want to consider the aluminum version
(CNPS7000A-AlCu) instead. This unit weighs 773 grams vs. 445 grams for the
AlCu.
The footnote (aka warning) from Zalman reads:
The maximum weight for the cooler is specified as 450g/450g/300g for socket
478/754/462 respectively. Special care should be taken when moving a
computer equipped with a cooler which exceeds the relevant weight limit.
Zalman Tech is not responsible for any damage that occurs when moving a
computer.
Needless to say I'll have to be extra careful in handling the system. I've
got a P4 and it's in a vertical position.
The instructions also contain warning about Socket 462 CPUs. Also there are
specific warnings about clearances because this is so large. It is 4 3/8"
in diameter. I've got it in an Antec Server case (PLUS1080AMG,
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...=BROWSE&depa=1 )
and it fits fine.
