Never fiddled with those Zalmans but the reviews say they fit s478:
Let the air flow!

Yea also can't find 478 mentioned: http://www.zalman.com/global/product/Product_ … ead.php?Idx=277
Hum ... I think what probably happens is that for the 9500A selling nowadays (2013) they've discarded the much in disuse s478 gear. I'd look then for a second hand ~2007 vintage one. Or buy a new one and McGiver the mount 😎 .

yea, the original came out in the late s478/462 era. As for the P4 version, all you need is an aluminum bar between the posts on the stock plastic mounting posts. I can provide pictures if need be. As for S464/A you need the 4 mounting holes on the motherboard and zalman's adapters. These adapters will let you put just about any heatsink onto 478/462.
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
Researching into P4 gear and found this in the manual from a Zalman cooler: http://www.zalman.com/global/product/Product_ … ead.php?Idx=152
I'm using a Zalman CNPS7000B-Cu on a 478 Prescott 3.2, it stays in low 60's under full load, idles in low 40's @ 20c room temperature, but does have one down side, dust collection, it's a really efficient vacuum cleaner!! See pic!
Overclocking is not an option on this crappy board, Asus P4R-800-VM ATi IGP chipset), nothing in BIOS whatsoever, it's also a picky git about RAM, and with only 2 slots this a pain. So for now only 512mb.

I have almost the same exact cooler, sale page said it worked on 478, when I got it box said otherwise. I wound up using it on some phenoms instead.
I wonder what the temps would have been if they hadn't goofed up and polished the base.

has any one tried the Scythe Shuriken Rev.B Quiet yet?
any mounted a zalman 9500? if so how?
No found it too hard / expensive to source one.
But I have this one on it's way to me:

I'll let you know how it performs...
what do you guys think of the XP-90 performance wise? have one of these at work.

the cool thing is it fits 478 and AMD and it just so happens i'm set to replace my p4 board with an AM2 board soon.

Very good but sadly missed out and it like all the rest of the really good 478 coolers it is hard to find. Don't want to bother with the CNPS7000/7700 series coolers although I used to have a bunch of them.
On a far away planet reading your posts in the year 10,191.
well if you live in the states you get a few for cheap.

How about this one (USA) ?:

Brand new($29.99/bestoffer), which hopefully would mean the s478 adapter is included.

...various pricing, and for the used ones one should probably ask if the correct adapter is present.
