So I've got this nice new HR-05 waiting to go on my northbridge... but the included plastic pin with spring mounts just seem waaaaay too flimsy. I can easily wobble the heatsink around on the NB with these pins applied, and I'm wanting to put a fan on it. What can I do for a better mounting solution?

While we're at it, anyone have fan suggestions for the HR-05? Just need something decent and quiet.
 
I've used the same mounting method with a 70mm fan and even if it seems wobbly, it held pretty well. However, I agree that for someone who move the system very often, it's a good idea to check if we can get it attached more firmly.
