K6-2 socket type

[beverage]

So i'm working on a computer that's got a K6-2 in it, one of the things that i need to replace is the heatsink/fan. I know the K6-2 uses the "super 7" socket, but i seem to be having some trouble finding heatsinks made specifically for this socket, a few however list "socket 7/370" So my question, do both these sockets (7 & 370) use the same size/style heatsink?

yep, the 370 and super 7 use the same general hookup.

Yes. I'm using a stock PIII heatsink on my oc'ed k6-2, work perfectly.

You could also use an Athlon heatsink.

Afaik any standard socket 5/7/370/A heatsink should work, I once used an athlon hsf on a celeron ppga 🙂

Good ole socket 7/370, one of the few socket platforms that lasted a long period of time. Luckily we got socket A and socket 478. Slot A and socket 423 were dead ends.
