Disc version is what I got, I wanted a blu ray player too for movies and didn’t want an extra device separate for that. It’s why I always go for the disc versions.

They come in both sizes now, the normal ones many of us are used to seeing and you can buy minis. Not sure if minis are sold individually but seen them in multi packs.

Would something like this work? It has a 3 tab clamp on one side, center tab on other way. Not sure if that would stress it out and break too or just not sit correctly since you’d have the heatsink on backwards technically

It’s been too long since I seen these type boards. Heard of someone using a dremel on the broken area around the tab to make a tab but that seems extreme and no way back if it fails.

This used to happen to the AMD sockets back when I think they were socket 462 or maybe it was the older gen.

Many heatsinks would grab the center tab on 1 side but AMD had 3 tabs to each side of the socket so it was just a matter of finding a heatsink with a clamp that used all 3 tabs on both sides. Sometimes the clamp could be reversed if it grabbed the outside tabs on one side and center on the other depending on design of the heatsink.
