Socket 478 Fan on a Socket 423 Processor

[chog]

I purchased a processor fan and it is to be used for a Socket 478 processor and I was wondering if I could use it on my older 423 P4?

PLEASE HELP!

P.S. - First Post! YAY!!!!

I ask my suppliers (Thermaltake and Cooler Master) that question last week, and their reply was NO.

Does any one know of any manufacturers for CPU fans that are compatable with Socket 423 CPUs?

Last week, I had 2 customers that had P-IV SKT 423 System with screwed fans. And so far the reply was NEW MOTHERBOARD + NEW PROCESSOR because I can not find a compatable fan.

I don't like giving my customers bad news.
