Greetings,

I received this Pentium II 233 MHz CPU. It h as a square metal clip where the cooling option goes. What do I need to get for this CPU? Can this be disassembled and a cooling option from a different Pentium II/III be used? I have some spare CPUs.

Many thanks!

Well I paid only a few bucks and after becoming frustrated, I grabbed that stupid plate and tore it right off. There is dry and cracked thermal glue and holes that line up with some of these pother heatsinks/h.s.-fans I have, so I think it should be simple from here as long as I can remove one of these from another CPU, like from one of these crappy 350's.
