Fan Mounting Major Problem. Please Help!

[esurfer190]

Hey Guys, I need some help here and hopfully this is the best category to put this in. Anyways, On the fan that I have there are two clips with only one hole. I have a socket A (thunderbird)and the middle tab on the board is broken. Therefor i can not use the mounting clips on the fan b/c it only has two holes and needs the middle two holes. Is there anyway I can get a simple new clip for the fan i bought with the three holes to attach to the tabs.? This would work better. Please advise

One solution, tho costly, would be to mount a new HSF combo that uses all or none of the clips - Dragon Orb uses all three per side and The big Swiftech MC462 uses the MB bolt holes.

Get a Taisol, they use the 3 zif tabs
