Hello,
i need to reattach my northbridge heatsink after the anchor clip popped off. I have anchors on one side but not the other. i cannot find another clip anywhere. i bought arctic silver thermal adhesive which makes a permanent bond - my sense is this is the only option - to permanently bond the heatsink to the chipset. this is an old computer and i do not plan to replace the heatsink in the future. is this advisable or is there another option?
