Hello everyone,

I usually am a lurker here as I can pretty much find the answer to what I need, but now it seems I am stuck. After 3 hours of searching I am at a lost what to replace my dead fan/heatsink with. Here is what I have:

Intel Motherboard D865perl
Cpu Intel 4 2.8ghz MPGA478(socket)

When I do a search for that socket I get one solution that is the gigabyte rocket which is a behemoth unit. It's huge. I tried a volcano 7+ that I have never used and does not seem to fit solid. Might be the stock platorm I may need to cut some, but the clips seem to fit well.

The issue seems that the 478 socket is a square and the one I have is rectangle. Hopefully someone has twinked this board as I have looked by the board as well with no success.
