I thought that the new Swiftech MCX462 would fit because the corners of the block are cut off.

Brad, you have a good point. It would be a bit of a waste to spend $40 - $80 more just to get another 1 - 2 C better cooling. But if I stick with my Vantec CCK6035D HSF, would it be able to adequately cool off an Athlon MP 1900? Basically, this is the main reason for this discussion. I was also planning on getting those new MP 1900 CPUs, but I'm not sure if my poor little HSFs will be able to handle the heat.

Thanks for the responses! Keep them coming!
