Ok i can see the that home depot would carry a brass T but why would they have the hardware to hold down a block to a board. im sure you could find all the parts there to do it but i dont have the time. i would like to buy some preassembled. thanks for the link though. there has to be someone out there that knows where i could find this.

Works for me. It's a slow site, so probbably just down for a moment.

I know they have springs and a ton of other stuff. Titanium bolts, saphirre balls anybody?

bertus...a hold down kit is nothing more than 2-4 screws/springs/and nut washers. they usually keep them all in the same place. just make sure the screws are thin enough to slip through the holes on your motherboard.

if you dont have holes on your motherboard then thats a different story though.

one work around is to plug your psu fan header in to the cpu fan header, and now you have a fan there

There should be an option in the BIOS somewhere to disable fan warnings or something. I used to have one of these boards and the procedure was to power it up with a fan plugged in (CPU fan) then go into the BIOS (press delete right at the start of powering up/resetting) and have a look around in the options in there. I can't remember exactly where it is but there's definately an option in there to turn it off. Once you've done that, save to bios and exit, shut down and remove the CPU fan

If there isn't an option in the bios to turn it off you can buy a little circuit that will send signal pulses to the fan header artifically that will trick the system into thinking there's a fan still attached and running.
