Can an LGA 775 fan work with an LGA 771 motherboard?
Go to solution
Solved by Samsonsuperco,
First off, I don't see how you can put a GPU in that board with the slots it has... As for the coolers, I have a 771 board and I used heat sinks from a Dell Precision T5400 (which is my main desktop now). On socket 771, the heat sink screws go through the motherboard and into the chassis. I used serrated 6-32 nuts and the screws that are in the heat sink to mount mine. Just make sure you leave the metal bracket in place. You can usually pick up the heat sinks for around $25 a piece, and the nuts for around $5 on Ebay. Keep in mind that you need fans too. I just used zip ties to hold the fans in place. Hope this helps! (I will add pics soon)
