Odd Cooler Requirement??

[Guest]

Im looking for a air cooler for a PLGA775 socket. Any suggestions? Preferably low profile. Also, do LGA775 coolers work on PLGA775 sockets?

there are only 3 types of sockets commonly in use today,

 

PGA (mostly AMD)

LGA (intel and threadripper/epyc) intel refers to theirs as FCLGA (flip chip LGA)

BGA (SFF/AIO, SOC, and laptop chips these are soldered onto the motherboard)
