Ahh KnCMiner ASICs. That name sure brings back memories.

I've never had the Titan but I've had the Jupiters and I am pretty sure it had the same fan+heatsink for the different cubes.

Basically when profitability went down for BTC mining, I threw away the ASICs but I kept the heatsink and fans because they were the only parts there which were worth something.

They are the Arctic Freezer i30, here is a link

They are regular CPU coolers however they didn't come with the heatsink mount so you can't use them on an actual CPU unless you get the mount from somewhere.

Do you mean, "Heat Sink Fan" and "Heat Sink"? Usually, it's just abbreviated as HSF.
"cooler master EVO? thermaltake?" - those are brand names of the high-end PC-parts manufacturers.

Can I use or adapt for a PC with CPU FX6300 AM3+? Has anyone tried it?  Roll Eyes
The stock HSF definitely wont fit, but..
Those branded HSF have a "universal mounts" to fit in any CPU socket, but in most cases, only one type can fit in the designated Motherboard Types (Depending on the CPU Socket).
However, the mounting holes might not match the dimensions of that ASIC's board; the height of the Heat Sink can also be an issue, the gap between the metal plate of the HS and the Processor should be a few micrometers (to be filled by thermal paste) to be efficient.

Just order a new replacement of those crap...... (lol) "original" fans.
