What is MCP?

[Not Bman]

The one that says motherboard is 47, so its not the same as MCP. And yes I was just checking out my GPU which is 84, and found this thread...http://www.overclock.net/nvidia-cooling/257754-8800gt-accelero-s1-fanless.html I was wondering where I can get the stuff to do this?

As I said here, does anyone know where I can find the items so that I can do this?

At http://www.newegg.com in the Search box type "chipset heatsink" without the quotes. Search this list for "North", as they more often specify heatsinks as being for the North Bridge but can be used for any chip approximately the same size so it'll work for your South Bridge/MCP.

I tried searching for "chipset heatsink north" but for some reason it didn't give me all the results.

Some of the items are heatsinks only and some are heatsink+fan, and they all probably come with whatever is necessary to attach them. I haven't looked through all of them, but some of the best/bigger ones may require holes in the motherboard around the chip to mount them; some motherboards have the holes. If you don't have those holes, then look for the kind of heatsink that just sticks to the chip directly.

No matter what, I would recommend a copper heatsink if you're going to get one at all, but don't let it stop you if the kind you want isn't available in copper but only aluminum. You choose whether or not you want a fan.
