I'm not sure... I was wondering that myself but I'm just going to go with something that is confirmed to work with AM2.

Yeah, good idea. But also, Zalman is excellent with supplying pretty much every mounting hardware adapter. It is troubling though that that one is specifically not AM2 supported--good idea to go with something else if not sure...

I like the Zalmon 7500 but what about the Thermal Take Blueorb II?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835106069

It has free shipping so it comes out cheaper. What do you guys think about it?

EDIT: (It would fit I believe but it may become a hindrance getting cables around it in my case)

Good, you won't be disappointed. I like my Zalman 7500 LED. Keeps the CPU nice and cool at 3.00 GHz.

I got the LED version too! I have a window also . I hate my stock cooling because I can hardly overclock without it getting hot.
