Ok, here is the deal.

My mother board supports:
AMD Athlon64 or Sempron
AMD Socket 754 at
800MHz HyperTransport FSB


This is going to be in a desktop machine.

Then only after my order shipped from newegg.com, did I realize that one, it does NOT come with a heat sync nor a cooling fan and also that I had bought a Mobile processor.

These are the processors specs:
AMD Mobile Athlon 64 3700+
800MHz FSB
1MB L2 Cache
Socket 754


My questions are:
Can I use this in my fathers desktop even though it is a mobile processor AND
does it require a heat sync?
(I bought one anyways)

Processor I bought:
Mobile Processor N82E16819103490
Motherboard I bought:
Mother Board N82E16856101238
 
If its the same socket and your motherboard supports it, (which it looks like it does) then it will work. You will need a heatsink, just like any other processor.
 
How do I know what size of a heat sync to buy?

It doesnt give me any dimensions?

Are they just that universal?
 
The System I am working on...

I am working on the Ultimate Egghead Machine.

I posted this on my website here:

It is something i put together that i am slowly working on building. (buying part by part as the money comes. I am sure most of you know how that goes).

The video card is disputable, but I wont be really using it all that much for gaming.

Here is a sneak Peak of the page:
ASUS A8N-SLI Premium Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard .
AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego 1GHz FSB 1MB L2 Cache Socket 939 Processor.

POWERCOLOR R92P-LD3 Radeon 9250 256MB 128-bit DDR PCI Video Card.
Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 ST3500641AS 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive.
