Heatsink Attachments

I have worked on mobos that attached the heatsink with clips onto the socket. Others have a frame that you press spring levers into.

What controls this, the mobo design or the fan design?

CPU manufacturer specifications control it.

My P IV has the frame and spring levers. What does a P III Socket 370 have?

clips on the socket for all socket 370

Pretty much all Intel processors except the P4 used clips on the socket, they switched to the current design with a frame and levers when the P4 arrived.

The Socket 423 P4's used clips also, though some heatsinks could be screwed directly
