Hey guys, I have a question about the old Intel socket 370 - how exactly did the HSF's attach to those chips? I wasn't really into hardware back when those things were popular. I have a BP6 that I inherited and I see that there's no real brackets or anything. I want to migrate the HSF's on that board onto another one but have no idea how :confused:
 
There are tabs on the sides of the socket that the heatsinks clipped on to.

Alright I'll check them out - I never had reason to pry them off before but I got a good deal on 4 socket 370 pentium 3's, which of course need a different mobo.
