Super-7 is largely a thing of the past now (this isn't intended to
necessarily express my approval of the rate at which computer parts
become obsolete, but that's the way it is); but parts for super-7 CPUs
might also be sold for Pentiums (not Pentium II), since "super socket
7" and "socket 7" are physically identical.

A Super-7 era CPU can probably get by with a good heatsink alone, but
finding such a thing might be equally awkward.

I wonder if socket-Athlon fans and heatsinks will fit socket 7 CPUs?
