Weird. For the AMD64 processors there are both compatible
and incompatible lists, but for the P4 there is only an
incompatible list.
None of the P4C800 series are on the incompatible list, but
I'm sure that is little comfort to owners of one of those
motherboards. I'm sure they would much rather see that
boards on a /compatible/ list before buying this fansink.
It might be simply a matter of numbers. This is a cooler
for DIYer's and for shops that build high-end gaming rigs -
and those kind of people mostly go with AMD64 rather than
settling for P4 or Xeon. Zalman might simply still be
waiting for feedback from more Intel users.
