like you said... its the same cooler, new bracket, new fan shroud and comes with a not so great fan(IMO). if its the same price i dont see why not to get the new one.... of course unless you want the 775 mounting hardware too for more usability.

i think im gonna hold out for a swiftech GTZ

But also i heard that if your buying a new GTZ it comes wih the socket 1366 mounting bracket...

Without having read all 15 pages:

I am running my i940 at 3.8 GHz with 1.4V right now, by simply raising the baseclock.

I just got a 6GB Tri-channel G.Skill kit for review, which will be done on this system. ;)

cheers
