I just obtained a Ryzen 7 2700 and I was wondering since it has the tower like fan is it still compatible with a Micro-ATX motherboard (GIGABYTE B450M DS3H)?

I am a fool and was thinking the Threadrippers Fan was the same for the Ryzen 7s. All I really wanted to know if the board and CPU were compatible.Tower fan? Did you buy this used from someone? If the cooler is not the stock fan it may require an adapter to fit a different board than it was originally installed on. Also, it may not fit the case you intend to put it into. You need to provide more information. The Ryzen 7 2700 CPU itself is compatible with GIGABYTE B450M DS3H.
yes its 65W part. I would not use 2700X though as its 95W part and in micro format, VRM would be toasty, as its naked on that board I would buy some of those small radiators & some glued thermal pad:Ryzen 7 2700
