is it easy? I got a Zalman 7000 AlCu and i didnt personally install the processor/hsf my friend did while i was wiring stuff to the other side of mobo... so i dunno how to take off HSF or put on the new zalman. Is it easy for a newbie ( i have put on amd processors/hsf but never an intel)
 
It's very easy with the 7000alcu, you just need to remove the old heatsink, clean off a bit the cpu, put paste and then install the Zalman onto the intel bracket.

The diffrence between putting on an Intel or AMD hsf is very minimal, you should have no problem with it.
