I have i3 3220 and box cooler that comes with and and ive recently bought 6500 Tray with gammaxx 300 but it was out-of-stock. Will box cooler from 3220 work fine with 6500? And do intel BOX coolers differ from each other at all?

Thank you for response?

Oh lol, my fault, after some more search I found that the mounting pins are the same, so yeah the cooler should work fine for you :)

Ah, sorry for the wrong info, thats probably because 2011-XX coolers won't fit to the LGA1150 and vice-versa, anyway, learned something new...

But the cooler mounting is different, Skylake is LGA1151 and Ivy Bridge LGA1155 meaning you can't use your CPU cooler there ;/
