Have a look at this wierd little heatsink on this P120, normally I remove most plain heatsinks but I've decided to leave this one on. The sticker saved it.

I bought a dual Pentium motherboard (Micronics M54Pe) from an IBM PC Server 320. Both CPU's have the same green heatsink as yours. (with 133MHz instead of 120), so it could be a heatsink from IBM.

I have boxes full of heatsinks that you can have for shipping costs only Smile

Man, that would get horrible if we had to consider OEM heatsinks when collecting variations on a processor Smile

I put away all heatsinks bought with CPUs. When I have them a lot I put on auction Wink Always buy someone from crazy OC guys.

There are actually people who buy bulk heatsinks? Cool! That's my next eBay auction - a kilo at a time should get rid of some of them Smile

yesh, good to recycle. It's a pet hate of mine, perfectly good aluminium being thrown away. Probably more hassle to sell on ebay, unless its a nice one. If you want to get rid of them fast, stick them in the relevant recycling bin behind the supermarket.

hehehe That's why I have boxes full of heatsinks Smile Now I know that it may be possible to sell a lot for more than scrap value, I'm going to have to check out some completed auctions and see if it's worth the work involved Smile
