It did fit my NF7-S with a 2600+, it comes with three wire clamps that secures the heatsink to your fan (Vantec Tornado) so no need for screwing anything to your motherboard. Whatever you do don't throw away those clamp until you are done with the installation or you might be dumper diving like yours truly.

If the motherboard does not have holes for the zalman NB47J then I don't think it will fit.

no i dont think you know what i mean ;)

i already have the zalman installed but was wondering if the slk900 would fit cos the zalman is quite high, much bigger than the standard abit screamer.

Oh! OK, well the SLK-900A is not a small heatsink by no means, but I think if you remove the Zalman NB47J and install the heatsink first and the Zalman last you might be able to fit em all in there pretty nicely.
