Most consumer grade Intel PC processors come with a simple cooler, commonly referred to as the "stock Intel cooler".  However, this cooler simply does not fit the needs of a large portion of PC enthusiasts who replace it with an aftermarket cooler, leading to the stock cooler being discarded entirely.  I personally own 2 of these coolers with no use for them.

​

In this project, I aim to increase the usability and re-usability of the Intel stock cooler, reducing the components that immediately go to waste.
