Hi,

considering almost impossible to find original heatsinks/metallic fixer, how can I do for cool down the big cpu on the biggest socket? 😁

Bye

If you have an old computer shop where you live try to get to know them. If you can look in their junk room and boxes you never know what you can find. This is more than just for Socket 8 heatsinks of course.
