[SOLVED] Is this a fake Corsair H75 Hydro or simply the wrong photos?

I have a Kraken G12 and the compatibility list shows that the H75 is compatible. Now I purchased one from Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/CORSAIR-Hydr...argid=aud-801738734305:pla-492066052998&psc=1

But look at how different it looks to the one on the official Corsair site.

https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categ...Series™-H75-Liquid-CPU-Cooler/p/CW-9060015-WW

The one on Amazon is square and has no teeth that fit into the Kraken, whereas the official one on the Corsair site is round and has the teeth. Incorrect photos or are they selling a knock off version? Thanks. Concerned I've bought something that doesn't fit on Kraken G12.

Amazon is selling the 2018 version
https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Liquid-Cooling/Single-Radiator-Liquid-Coolers/Hydro-Series™-H75-(2018)-Liquid-CPU-Cooler/p/CW-9060035-WW
The newer version appears to be that round one you linked, you can contact corsair/NZXT directly to be sure though.

Ah yes you are correct as I just dug a little deeper. Darnit the 2018 redesign is model "SKU CW-9060035-WW" and does NOT work with a Kraken G12. It's the model "SKU CW-9060015-WW" that is round with the teeth that fits on the Kraken.

Kraken G12 owners before you choose this model make sure it's not the 2018 redesign.
