I'm probably going to upgrade from a Athlon XP 2500+; but I'd like to still keep the Sl-97a and use it on an X2. Now the Thermalright website says that this cooler can handle up to a 5000+. Would I be correct in thinking that the website hasn't been updated to take into account the F2 and F3 steppings of AM2s, which dropped wattage and associated heat build up?
A 89 watt TDP 5600+ should be within the capacity of this heatsink...or am I dreaming? Oh, and I'd be using a Nexus 92mm fan at 7v to cool the Sl-97a.
Thermalright Sl-97a on AM2 - will it cool a X2 5600+?
