ok, one of those little nubs on my asus A7 broke off so i'm now using a generic heatsink with a low pressure clip. What cooler can i get that would use the other nubs? i broke off the middle one so there should be one that uses the two outside ones right?
I want to overclock but i need a better cooler.

I just read the review of the "SupaOrb" over at HardOCP, and the clip used all three nub thingies to attach. I think only one side uses them all, so it would depend on what side got broken, but I guess you could just put it on backwards.

Hope this helps, good luck man.
