if i had a cpu clip like that http://www.pcabusers.com/reviews/cm/clip.jpg or that http://www.hitech-solutions.com/images/products/Evercool ND-15 CPU Fan.jpg
it would be no problem to intall the fan there and hold it down with those clips ... but what i do now that the clips are different :/
 
come on guys help me out... there must be a way to install new/better/biger cpu fans on that kind of cpu and heatsink with theese clips
 
The web site of the new cooler /heatsink you buy should tell you the mobos that are supported, they will provide you with the clips that you need in order to attach the block to your existing mobo.

We dont live here.


As for your question ... you have a heatsink and a fan and all you want to replace is the clips? From what you said

That has nothing to do with the clips since the fan attaches to the heatsink. Now if you mean to replace the entire HSF assembly then the new HSF comes with clips
 
i whant to add a bigger fan, now if i attach the fan on my heatsink i would have to remove those clips... if i remove them how is the heatsink gonna stand there in it place where it should be ??

You dont have to remove those clips (well you shouldnt -- if you do -- what make and model of everything do you have)
