Fan compatibility with CPU

[daegorvx]

Is this fan compatible with my CPU?

Fan: Pure Rock Slim BK008
CPU: Intel Core i5 3470@3,20GZ

I have experienced nonstop BSOD's with the above mentioned setup. After trying, in vain, every single step that is advised in fixing BSOD's, I decided to replace my current CPU with an older model. The BSOD's completely stopped.

Either the CPU is faulty or the fan is not good enough for that CPU.
Could someone confirm whether my fan is compatible with my CPU?

Thanks,

Yes, this cooler is compatible with all 115x sockets and your CPU is 1155 socket, so it is 100% compatible with your CPU.

Thanks for the confirmation!
One last thing, does this fan cool the CPU well enough? If so, then I can only conclude that my CPU is faulty.

Yes it should be able to cool that CPU without problem.
