Hi all,

I recently got an 'old' server from work due to EOL (Proliant ML350p Gen8) but for reasons that still escape me it does not include any internal fans or heat sinks for the CPU's (2x Xeon 2420's).

Would anyone have any recommendations on what the best heat sinks and fans to use? Not looking for anything fancy as it will most likely be used for IT study.

Thanks for your help.
 
You are going to be looking for a socket 1356 cooler. You can sometimes find very cheap server pull heatsinks on ebay.
 
Thanks for your help Rav3n, it was DOA on arrival. Back to the drawing board.
