Just got my Zalman CNPS7000A-Cu couple days ago. But this thing is really heavy about 3 times heavier than the hsf that comes with the processor. Is it safe to directly attach this to my motherboard without any supports. And any experiences with the asus p4c800-e deluxe in particular thanks
 
It's safe, as the heatsink bolts through the board, instead of clipping to the retention mechanism.
 
The heatsink doesn't bolt through the motherboard. For a P4, you need to place two retention rods into to cpu socket holder and then screw the heatsink into the retention rods. Once you tighten the screws, it's pretty secure.
 
he says that he has the "A" Model, suggesting that he has an AMD
so im guessing that it DOES bolt onto the Mobo
 
the model with the extra a includes the moutning for the amd model but i have the asus p4 board sorry if i wasnt clear
