only if P4s have the little cleats on the edges of the Socket. Last I had heard, P4 heatsinks attached to the motherboard or case or something.

P4's use an entirely new & different heatsink mounting system, don't buy anything not specifically made for P4 systems.

All Intel P4 Northwood CPUs on the net come retail with a heatsink and fan from what I've seen.
