Can I move old hyper 212 from lga1155 to lga1150?

Hi there,

So I bought a Hyper 212 (I don't know if it was 212+ or 212evo or just 212) back in 2009 i think for my i7 2600k. Mid last year I made a new build using an i7 4790k and kept the stock heatsink on there, today this heat sink is running loud for the last time I need to change it.

I was thinking of just taking my 212 from the old pc and putting it into my current one...will that work? or do I need to buy a new one ?

Thanks for your help

Yes it should support the newer socket.
