I’ve been trying to find these blasted mounting clips for the stock intel socket lga775 heatsink/fan units for the better part of the last month.
If you’ve ever tried to install them, or even worse, remove the heatsink after a not-perfect installation, you’ll know why I need replacements. They break easily! Well, after spending a few hours looking at complete new replacement heatsink units and noting that half of them use these pins in the first place, I renewed my search and finally found a forum post link directly to the intel site where they sell them in packs of 4!
Voila, Kit Fasteners for LGA775 fan heatsinks (set of 4)
Now, if only their store would work … grrrrrr.
