Aurus Heatpipe Coolers?

[pigwalk]

Hey guys, I just pulled a big, nice looking heatsink from a Dell Dimension we were repairing. Looks nice, 6 copper pipes, lots of aluminum fins. "auras" is written on the base. Wondering if I'll be able to stick this on any other machine I might have at home. I'll post pics when I get home. Anyone else ever heard of them?

what socket is it for? if i recall correctly some of the AMD64/X2/Opty lines had heatpipe coolers shipped with them.

It was off a Skt 775 Machine we had to rebuild. It was cooling a p4 3.6ee along with the standard Dell back case intake fan, so it couldn't have been total crap or that chip would have fried. Unfortunately it didn't fit into the standard 775 mountings so we just stuck a cooler we had sitting around on it. Will remember to bring it home and take pics tomorrow.

it probably had some of those stupid OEM mounting brackets or something
