Socket 370 cooling question

[Pagan Wizard]

Hi, I don't usually post in this part of [H], but have what some might think to be a silly question. Ever since I built my first rig, I have used AMD CPU's for every one of them. I was recently given an old Gateway with a socket 370 P3 733. The HSF on it is extremely noisey and I was told that a HSF from any socket a CPU will fit perfectly. Before I remove the old HSF, can someone here either confirm or dispute what I was told please??

Yes they will fit. They use the same retention clips.

Very cool, thank you.
