[wanted] Motherboard heatsink

[FN-GM]

I am after one of these, does anyone have one please? It hucks onto the motherboard I cannot find one like this

 

Thanks

[tech_guy]

I'll have a look in my box of bits tomorrow for you.

[FN-GM]

Much appreciated, thanks

This - http://www.cclonline.com/product-info.asp?product_id=13777&category_id=100&manufacturer_id=0&tid=cskit or this http://www.cclonline.com/product-info.asp?product_id=20926&category_id=100&manufacturer_id=0&tid=zm-nb32k would probably also do the job if the bits box doesn't come up trumps.

They won't attach, they don't have the hooks like the current one.

[john]

You take the hooks out of the board and then the pegs push through the holes left by the hooks.

[FN-GM]

There are no holes like, that the hooks are literally attached to the motherboard. If you take them out you will break part of the board.

 

Thanks anyway

Its not for a processor, its for a chip on the MB.

 

They look the ones, but how do they attach?

You might want to try a Zalman passive north bridge cooler or something similar... They have a heat activated glue that can do the job of attaching and you get to avoid the whole noise issue as well although you do need to be careful of add-on card clearance.

 

Oops... that must have been an earlier model I was thinking of..

.. seems they don't do the thermal glue anymore but something along these lines may be useful regardless..

[FN-GM]

Dam i thought i had the perfect solution then

[contink]

Well you still might...

... with this little all in one being of the type I was describing before:

[browolf]

i think thats a northbridge fan.

u may be able to use one of these

post a pic of the mobo where the fan fits.

[contink]

I'm a dope... I didn't notice the hooks...

 

Ok... final option:

That unit is mighty tall but it includes the adaptors to handle the hook fittings.

[FN-GM]

Well you still might...

Right this and a standard fan will do then
