Hello,
I got this HP 631571-001 HEATSINK/FAN from a friend and appearantly its a server fan so I wanna ask how to put it onto my computer so it would work, it has four screws which are 8cm apart from each other and my socket is AM3+ which has holes for screws 10 cm lenght and 5 cm width also the screws are smaller than holes in motherboard so I wanna ask if there is some adapter for it? And also it has weird 5 pin fan and its much more smaller than connectors on motherboard so is there something for it too? I don't mind if its loud or something, I just wanna know if I can use it and how?

Thank you for your replies.
