Salvaged an old Dell Heatsink.

I was working on a dell at work that had a bad motherboard and the old HS wouldn't work on the new board so we had to get a new one. Old heatsink was going to get thrown away so I grabbed it

So now I have the Heatsink and I'm trying to think of what I should bolt it onto. It's wide enough I could drill some holes and bolt it to my X2 3800+ to replace the stock cooler. If it can keep a 2GHz prescott cool it can keep an AMD cool. 😛

Ooh!

Needs a good lapping.

All it's base are belong to me!
 
Those Dell heatsinks are actually pretty good. They basically passively cool Prescotts which is amazing (I know there is an exaust fan on the case, but none on the HS). Use it wisely and great find!
 
those dells heatsinks are damn good. they are silent machines so they cool with very little airflow. probalby cool a prescot or better yet.. a video card:evil:

Might work as a NB HS on the DFI board.

call me stupid but what does NB stand for?

EDIT: North Bridge right? So I was under the impression that the 64's were on die so they had no NB, so that must mean that to use this as a NB heat sink it would be for a pentium, or someting pre 64?
