Clips broken on cpu mounting frame

[Paul -C-]

My computer turned off today and once I had opened up the case I realised that 2 of the plastic tabs which connect the cpu mounting bracket on the mobo to the heatsink have snapped.

Is it possible to buy a new square mounting frame thing, or are there any coolers for a socket 939 which come with the mounting frame thing?

Cheers

search "skt 939 retention module" and you'll find a place where you can buy spares...

i've never seen a heatsink that comes with a spare.

Might also be worth bunging off an email to the manufacturer, had instances in the past where their customer services have just sent out one FOC! Of course it depends on who produced the motherboard...

/Edit If it is the board in your sig, I haven't had any experience with ASUS customer service, but it is worth a 2 minute email!
