Apple G5 Heatsink on AM3 mobo?

0

I've been looking to replace my PhenomII 965be's stock heatsink, and my old G5's massive heatsink has drawn my attention.

Do you think it would somehow be possible or am I going too far?

my mobo: GA-MA790FXT-UD5P

and there are 2x HD5870s connected to it.

Apple does not use AMD . So you won't be able to properly mount and secure the G5's Heatsink. Since the G5 used neither Intel or AMD the likelyhood of an IBM heatsink fitting is less then 0%. – Ramhound – 2015-09-02T17:51:41.693

1That's exactly my question though, I know it's highly improbable but I'm looking for a more certain answer. – Nadav – 2015-09-02T18:15:50.417

It is 100% improbable. In other words not possible. – Ramhound – 2015-09-02T18:20:48.920
