Aerocool DP102

I'm interested in getting an Aerocool DP102 for a 2600 XP-M but they are absolutely huge and weigh a ton. What I want to ask is if these are really suitable for a system that is gonna be moved around a bit? And do they work on a A7N8X

Ok lemme rephrase this, have there been any cases of a thermalright SP-97 wrenching the cpu off when moving it about? The SP-97 is 5g heavier so if it doesn't I'm guessing the same wont happedn to the DP-120.

I use one on a P4 2.8. with a Chaintech Zenith 9CJS. I used the four screws to retain it to the motherboard. In three months I've taken it to 2 LANs and one presentation 45 minutes away. I've had no problems. One thing that might ease your mind is laying you rig flat when going in a car. Hope this helps.

I have a DP-102 and feel that the 3 lug mounting clamps are more than sufficient to hold it securely.
Taking the normal precautions while moving the PC should be fine.

I splashed out that little extra for that SP-97, hope it doesn't dissapoint
