Alright, I know it sounds like a stupid question, but the second comp in my sig has a silly little Spire fan that has trouble keeping the E2140 under 60*C when in normal use.

I recently ordered 3 stock AMD fans from here, I've seen some universal brackets on coolers which use the same clip AMD do in the middle but it branches off to 775 clips.

O----O

Best diagram evar I know, but ignore the ...s, that's basically what it looks like.

Does anybody know which cooler this bracket is from? I know for fact I've seen a pic of one somewhere but I just can't put a name to it.

The AMD stock fan performs close to my TX3 so it'd work wonders on the downstairs one on the cheap.

Cheers

EDIT: NVM, I've now put my TX3 in the one downstairs lol.

I would, but I've just splashed out on a netbook and am broke :p the stock cooler with heatpipes is only a few degrees worse than my TX3 so my TX3's now in that one and the stock cooler in my own.

I'm sure somebody has a cooler lying around that they could give you for cheap on the MM
 
Thread revival!

No point making a new one really, has anybody else used these heatpipe coolers? I have two, and the fans on both have died within 2 days with a lovely scrapey scrapey noise. Am I doing something wrong :confused:
