All my friends have AMD Skt 939 or AM2 and it seemed the right thing to do, plus the AM2 runs alot cooler than the 939's, so with the Typhoon at idle temp I get 39 Degree C and at full stress level tested with Ntune I'm getting 51-53 Deg C. Not bad at all And with 2 7900 GTX totalling 1 gig of ddr3 Ram I'm not that concerned with cpu usage plus the Ram (Geil) elevates any bottle necking
I'm a AMD fan myself! Although I have a relativly slow 3200+ compared to your purchase, I like the AMD product and never thought I would leave Pentium. But the bang for the buck is excellent I'm just about at the verge of getting into the high watt 6 cooling fan, beat all computer....almost but not quite yet!
