Does anybody out there have an Alpha 8045 HSF on their Abit KR7A MB ?? Those capacitors look awful close to the socket. I have a KG7 Raid and, I am wanting to upgrade to the KR7A but want to use the Alpha 8045 as it keeps my 1700+ XP way cool !
Thanks...

I don't know about the ABIT board you're looking at. I've got the KT7-Raid and it was so tight plugging in the CPU and heatsink/fan that i thought I was going to break something. I made a silent vow to never remove the thing. Your observation is very accute... it was the capasitors that were to close to the socket.

Actually, the CPU slid right in, but for pete's sake, it's an Athlon... you gotta attach a car radiator in there somewheres.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
