can anyone help me with my dell dimension 3000?

I have a dell dimension 3000 that i am swapping into my thermaltake lanfire case but i need a normal cpu heatsink with a fan for this case because dell uses that stupid channeling to the rear 100 mm fan and everyone hates that and u know it but anyways if you could point me twoards some products around 20 or 30 bucks that would be great because this is just for my kid who doesn't need a fancy fan but if its a little more high range i'll accept all the help i can get thanks

    Any correct socket heat sink with a back plate will do it. I have used small bolts with nuts on the back. If it is secure, it is fine. Keep the heatsink and get a cpu fan with a molex connector for power and screw it on that Dell.
