Heatsink for Intel DQ77CP m'board

PatD · 02-15-2018, 02:42 PM

This motherboard is a socket 1151 but has an issue:
on 2 sides of the socket, there are raised circuits so close that a standard round heatsink doesn't fit.
I have diddly knowledge about heatsinks, and it's obvious this board needs something special, like a rectangular heatsink with spider-leg attachments.
Can anyone direct me to such a beast?

Hi:

I looked on Neweggs site and didn't find any such beast.

Try calling Neweggg and ask them. If they say no ask them if they know who would carry such a heatsink.
Ask to talk to a IT Tech let him know what you have going on with the raised circuits and see what he suggests.

Call Tiger Direct and ask them too if you don't get anywhere with Newegg.

What's the exact model and number of your mobo?

I'd call Intel if all else fails:-
