Hello!
I am getting ready to build my own multimedia PC running Linux. I don't have everything yet, but I've chosen an AMD+ compatible motherboard.
I also found a circular CPU cooler: How can I find out which processor it might be suitable for?

Configuration: Windows XP / Firefox 3.6.13

Hello,
I opted for an AMD+ compatible motherboard
Do you mean AM2+?
I also got a circular-shaped heatsink
That's way too vague for us to respond, you should provide at least the brand and model of the heatsink, or at a minimum a picture of the beast
What processor did you get it from?
