Supermicro M11SDV-8C-LN4F 60x25mm CPU fan holder

thingiverse

This is a bracket to hold a 60x25mm fan securely in place atop the CPU heatsink on a Supermicro M11SDV-8C-LN4F motherboard, as well as similar models with matching heatsink dimensions. The design intentionally positions the fan above the heatsink, allowing only the legs of the bracket to make contact by mounting onto the screwposts of the heatsink. This creates a secure yet flexible connection. Other than gravity and the small holes resting on the screwposts, the bracket does not have any additional securing mechanisms in place. The inspiration behind this design comes from an article found at https://www.servethehome.com/near-silent-powerhouse-making-a-quieter-microlab-platform/. A Fusion 360 archive is provided for those who wish to customize and adapt this design further. Additional resources include: https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboard/M11SDV-8C-LN4F
