@sally @freetar >these boards require some modding to fit standard CPU fan coolers into it
Yes, they use the G34 socket, which is not common anymore, but certain models of coolers are not that hard to mod.
You pretty much need a CPU cooler with internal springs and screws that fit the holes (#6-32 machine screws) and that can be modded to work with a 104 mm spacing.
There is a guide that shows a poor and difficult way of doing a mod; https://www.overclock.net/threads/alternative-socket-g34-cooler-heatsink-modding.1551565/ (reader mode)
I was sent some images that show the process how to mod a cooler - let me see if I can find them.
