CPU heat sink snaps off!!!
:help:
Overnight My Artic Freezer Pro fell off (luckily without damaging the Graphics card or anything else) the Computer shut down and seems okay.
It was a tight fit fitting in onto the AM2 socket retention module, but I did not think anything like this would happen.
The plastic lug on the socket retention module snapped!
As a temporary solution I have put a small screw into the modual which acts as a lug for the freezer pro to fix onto.
The problem is where can a get a replacement AM2 retention module? I dont really want to have to buy another mother board and its too soon to find a dead AM2 board I can plunder.:help: Thermalright do seem to have a customised AM2 module but its not ideal.
Can anyone help?
and any idea how I can stop this from happening again? I don't want to have to chuck my Freezer pro away!
Cheers.
