Anyone know where I can buy/beg/steal/borrow one of these in the UK? (its the black plastic 'frame' around a 478 socket)

I took it off the motherboard in question a while ago to fit a waterblock, and now I want to re-use the mobo in an air cooled rig I can't find the retention clip :rant: :(

Cheers,

Olly

They do make replacements that screw on, for better reliability.
