Yes it looks like it should be fine... I didnt want to take off the fan and heat sink that came w/ the CPU ... I put all that on before I mounted the MB in the case of course... (b/c the powersupply makes it hard to get to the clip) so when I end up ordering another one of those fans and heat sinks, I'll put it on w/ some artic silver...
As for the bios setup, got any ideas on what it would take to safely get my PC to run 2.5Ghz or higher?
Using that Volcano 7+ should be good enough for over clocking i think
