The ebay link is FOR your computer likely...

 

The heatsink will attach,thats not the issue. There are no ports to hook up the fans.

Here's one for 20 bucks that will work perfectly

The way it hooks to the board is different too.Im not sure a regular case fan is able to be hooked up in this case.

Thats the only thing I need to make the computer work.I need the whole assembly,Gateway wont talk to me because the computer is out of warranty and wont let me order parts from them.

Im going to second what slimpsy said.

As long as you side with the Gingers not even zombies can stop us.

Beuler.....Beuler......anybody??? Beuler?

You want to put a passive heat sink on a quad core?

 

Its an LGA775 board,Gateway has proprietary mounting points on the board and case. Trust me if I could go different I would,with the mounting points being more rectangle than square I dont have a choice but to use gateways OE solution. I wanted to use something similar to this http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4244280&CatId=1588 but the way the hold downs are posistioned I cannot securely fasten it to the mobo.

Im having some issues finding an 130w passive heat sink for this computer. Its a BTX form factor and Gateway wont help me do anything because the machine is out of warranty. Any helpfull ideas would be appreciated.Im almost to the point where im going to sell it how I bought it and build something around the parts that I do have.

yeah thats my lame intro

 

The first step is admiting it,now fix it.

Come see me for the parts

Got wood?

 

I do.
