I was putting some Artic Silver 5 on my P4 chip and then when I went to attach the stock cooler back on after a little lapping I busted one of the attach points on the motherboard mounting bracket(the piece that comes with the motherboard). Right now I used a large rubber band to secure it and to take up the slack and help cool the processor I also wedged a case fan on top of the heatsink. Its a P4PE and I was wondering if I can get a new bracket or I should just go out and get that new Abit IC7-max3 with overnight air shipping so it comes tomorrow. My temps aren't to bad considering that its a rubber band they are right around 41C idle up from the usual 35-39.
