Has anyone tried to use a clip on heat sink for socket 462 on a socket 423 motherboard? the socket seems to have clips for a heat sink just like 370/462 and from what I found online they are about the same size but 423 seems a a few mm longer from what I am seeing online.
Would anyone here have a 423 board they can check that with or have tried this befor?

The clip latches are too wide on s423 to fit s370/462 heatsink's IIRC. s603/604 heatsinks should fit just fine on s423 so I'd just find one of those instead.

I mean the plastic tabs themselves are too wide, most s370/462 won't have clips with latches wide enough to fit unless modified. Also I'd imagine the height of the cpu to be a problem too, the clip on a regular s370 heatsink needs to be bent to fit on a Tualatin PIII and the s423 P4 is even taller than that. |

Ohh cool so it can work with minor mods. I have a 462 block I might be able to use on 423. it has springs so no bending and it made to use all 3 tabs on the socket.

I use a similar clip except its a Socket A clip with a 4mm bolt through the middle to hold the waterblock down.
The mem speed with RDram is not the modules its the controller chips on the motherboard you used to be able to get 400 533 600 speed chips but you wont find them now as TAGG found out.
I have got a Asus P4T-F and I changed the chips to 533 ones but that was 10 yrs ago.
