sigh,.... HP makes two diffrent heatsinks and power supplies  for a reasion

 

the stock heatsink has 2 heatpipes is rated for 95watts max and is smaller in size than the performance heatsink

 

the performance heatsink has 3 heatpipes and is larger in size with a larger fan and is rated for 130 watt cpu's and may require the upgraded pwr supply depending on cpu's ,drives installed, ram config,  and pci-e cards installed

 

the 150 watt cpu's require the z800 liquid cooling kit and the upgraded 1110 watt power supply
