Hi, I recently upgraded my Dell server with a 3.06 HT processor. The chip
that was on there originally used a Dell proprietary heatsink fan, and the
plastic connector that is screwed to the motherboard that the assembly
clips to is not a standard piece-the levers on my Intel supplied unit
can't clip to the thing. Is it possible to get one, and if so what's the
plastic piece called? All I need is the thing for the motherboard so I can
use the correct fan/heatsink unit for it. I was forced to use the one from
my old CPU, but would greatly prefer to use Intel's solution.

Great! Thanks for the help and the link. I was confused because Newegg
didn't have anything close, and they seem to stock everything under the
sun. I'm going to order it tonight.
