Hi, does anyone have any picture of a cooler that's compatible with the Socket 370 Pentium III SL6BY Tualatin CPU - as the CPU's are slightly taller than other socket 370 ones and i'm struggling to find one that can accomodate it. In particular do you have pictures of the underside? or pictures of it attached to the mobo?

Coolers that fit: Socket 370 coolers, Socket 7 coolers and Socket A coolers.

Not every cooler will fit as there could be caps near the socket and such, with some Socket A coolers you need to change the clip for it to work.

The height of the CPU should not matter as you can bend the clip if its too tight.
