Solve : cpu heatsink?

Answer»

yea i have a cpu and a heat SINK but i dont have anything to mount them  together any idea'sThey may not be made for each other.
There are more than a few hundred POSSIBILITIES here ...
Any info you can provide on either component will narrow down the search somewhat.

Have you chosen any other components yet ? ?the parts are 100PERCENT made for each other i just lost the little part of metal that put the cpu to the heatsinkSorry but i don't understand...
Do you have any additional info as was suggested ? ?
Or maybe pictures or diagrams ? ?
Keep in mind we cannot see the pieces from here.they are many stores there to buy new stuff... Quote from: krone2800 on November 01, 2007, 01:11:07 AM

Why does it seem sometimes like you are unable to grasp simple concepts. I'm not trying to be offensive by saying this.

He's talking about the backplate, clips and screws needed to mount and install the heatsink ontop of his CPU.
He lost them somehow.

And to answer his question.. I don't know where you can get spare mounting parts. You'll have to contact the company that made the cooler, or just buy a new one. Quote from: Jess607 on November 01, 2007, 09:00:11 AM

There is no issue with grasping simple concepts...

In a less than creative way i was expecting him to understand how a Help Forum works...in other words the more details that can be provided the sooner a solution can be reached. NOTHING more...nothing less.
There are at least a few DIFFERENT heatsink/CPU setups out there on the market. Knowing which ones it may be would lead to good advice.The metal clip retainer that goes on comes with
the new heatsink.

Is the red highlighted part PeckerWood circled what you
are talking about?



You people.. omg, lol.. Is there a forum for arguing? lol.. Anyways.. I know what you're tlaking about and I have from the very first post.. It wasn't that hard jeeze...  ANYWAYS----------  Did you try looking on ebay?   Or post a picture of what you DO have and state what type of socket you need it for.. maybe someone here would have one you can have.  Or like someone else said just buy a new fan and heatsink they're usually only a few bucks.  I actually just built a new computer for my aunt and uncle.. it's an AMD Athlon and it's a socket AM2 and the heatsink and fan (which btw are HUGE like. WOW huge lol... They were only $12 on tiger direct... Also you can check out newegg if you don't like ebaying...  Good luck!

JayWow! what a good idea.A forum for arguing.......
