So I got rid of all my old Socket 3 heatsinks probably 8-10 years ago.
The ones I am seeing for sale now are stupidly priced and I have been looking for a while now.
What is everybody else doing for socket 3 heatsinks?
I could just make my own from a larger heatsink which is what I will probably do since I really am only wanting to put together 1 or two 486 systems.
I could even use a heatpipe cooler from a laptop since I have a number of parts laptops laying around.
The only thing I am not sure of is what I would use to attach them to the CPU. I guess I could run a few strings under the CPU and then have a spring for each string to keep them tight on top of the heatsink.
