Default Heatsink broken!!!


Hi Friends,

Recenly I replace my old pc's mobo(intel d101ggc dead) with Asus P5KPL-AM/PS.

After instaling everything I noticed cpu( p4 2.66 G) temp was very high.
50-55 c in idle.

So I clean the heatsink again, also clean cpu's metal surface and apply TP,
try to insert HS and finaly manage to break one plastic clip of one leg.

It was stock HS comes with P4.

With one broken leg its seated almost properly, no jerkin when its run and even a very slight improvement in temp.

But i am sure 3 legs HS cannot reduce my temp, So i like to buy one.

Not very costly because i dont use this pc regularly.

And not a push system one(if I will break again).

So please suggest...
