Need help with R9700Pro and cooling
 
OK, im going to attach either a socket 370 intel retail HS+fan or an AMD 1700+ tbredB retail HS+fan to my radeon 9700 pro (also some custom made heatsinks for the ram-modules but more on that when i get them). I was wondering if anyone of u have the specifications for the mountingholes and the clear area around the GPU. Oh and diameter for screws to use would also be veeeery appreciated.

Over and out

For the holes, just remove the stock hsf and use it as a template. Lay it on the hsf and simply mark the holes.

If it were me, I'd get a copper 1u hsf (used in laptops and rack-mount systems because it's so short. With a fan, they cool much better than the stock hsf.
The best I can tell you on the size of the screws is "small".

I know that the screw holes will only accept a #4 screw. I know this because it is damn hard to find a 4-32 screw that is 2 inches long! :D

That shouldn't be a problem. Buy a rod and cut it to size. If you want you can solder a nut to it so that it's a nutscrew :) (don't know the word in english)

Perhaps you're looking for the word bolt.

I think I like "nutscrew" better. :)
