Need the Mounting Bracket for CoolerMaster Hyper48 CPU 478 Cooler

[dfyoung10]

I just got a CoolerMaster Hyper48 CPU Cooler but it came with only the mounting hardware for a socket 775 and I have a socket 478 system. Coolermaster can't help with parts for an obsolete (in their view) system. I don't overtax my system at all, but I really want a nice quiet fan like this one has. Any body have any ideas where I can get the bracket that attaches to the bottom of the cooler and screws onto the board? It has four holes for the cooler and four to mount on the board; the four board-mounting holes are in a pattern approximately 60mm by 77mm. I can send a scan of approximately what I need if anyone thinks that might help.

The cooler originally came with hardware for mounting several different CPUs, so I am hoping someone might have 478 hardware that they did not need. Thanks in advance.

I realize that this may also mount by using shorter clamping hardware to fix the cooler directly to the existing bracket. The ones with my existing fan are way too long.

Do a DIY, just make sure you don't short motherboard.

If you still need one I've got one you can have, it all depends where in the world you are.
