I thought the clips for the socket A and the Socket 370 were completely different? Does it work properly? Is there an article somehwere that talks about using it on a socket 370? (don't want to burn up my new PIII800eb!)

Thanks for that article. Hopefully I can find some more info. I want to know if the super orb fits tightly (or maybe too tight?). I heard of damage on the socket A's with the older G'Orbs because they applied too much pressure. Maybe I will order one and just take my chances http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif
