Is everyone purchasing the I7's using just stock cooling?

I'm sure some are using the bolt kits that allow you to use a lga775 cooler on a lga1366 like this one

it isn't as good as a true lga1366 cooler because of the different sizes.

OK .Thx for the link.I didnt know they a conversion bolt kit for 775 sockets.I just assumed everyone was using that 1 1366 aftermarket or were using stock.I guess it would cut down on the exspense too of having to buy another cooler

I have everything here to build my Core I7 but a cpu heatsink . I sure the factory would be ok but still I'd like something better. Zalman is set to release their 9900 and a few others but I have yet to see them for sale.

Yeah The one I gave a link for doesnt too high performance compared to the True's or Xig 123s that people are using now.I guess you can do mild OC till some better ones hit the market
