I am debating buying a new heatsink and fan. Because of my mobo being of limited space. I have a conductor in the way stopping me of using the TT volcano series well the bigger ones. I am wondering just how well the TT ORb Series is as far as cpu cooling goes. Are they worth the money to get and do they really cool as well as a say your bigger fan:confused:

it might, i know the volcano series wont and I had tried ones like smiz did write up on and they wont fit, the coil is like almost on the socket for the processor. but the ax7 might

From what I've read about orbs, stay far, far away from them. They are basically useless. But that's just what I've read, I don't have any personal experience with them...:thumbsup:

Yeah, orbs suck. Don't ever use one on a cpu. On videocards and northbridges they seem to do well though.

Hey man, an AX-7 will fit on your mobo. I have one... Now I get to see what I can con you out of! hehe:stick: :D
