[SOLVED] Is this heatsink compatible with this CPU?

[egderic]

I'm looking at this CPU: https://www.newegg.ca/intel-core-i3...re=Intel_Core i3-10100-_-19-118-138-_-Product


And this heatsink: https://www.newegg.ca/cooler-master...0pk-r2/p/N82E16835103099?Item=N82E16835103099

Now I know that in the listing title, it lists LGA1200, which is the type of the CPU I'm looking at, but when you go down to the specs, the sockets listed are:

Intel Socket:
LGA 2066 / 2011-3 / 2011 / 1150 / 1151 / 1155 / 1156 / 1366

No LGA1200 in sight. So I don't know what to believe, because it's right there in the listing title. What do you think?

Because, LGA 1200 = LGA 115x.
The socket dimensions are the same.

Thank you!

You're welcome!

1200 is listed at link you gave for i3-10100:

CPU Socket Compatibility	Intel LGA 2066 / 2011-3 / 2011 / 1366 / 1200 / 1156 / 1155 / 1151 / 1150

Might already have it but if you still can at least get then V2 version which has better mounting hardware,

not talking about the "Black Version" and other options.

hope the motherboard has an A-RGB connector ....

then there are the imo better looking black versions from the Hyper 212,

That's pretty cool, but unfortunately, the vetroo's not available in Canada.

Abit cheaper and about equal to the Cooler Master 212 is this,
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product...400-v2-645-cfm-cpu-cooler-dp-mch4-gmx400v2-rd
fan will stay red so no choice in colors, but if it by any chance matches your build would thaty be fine. Iss still abit cheaper and fine for the cpu you're looking at and even a non overclocked 11600k.
