CW-8960017 Bracket kit question

Recommended Posts

So I have H75 at home and lost my Intel bracket after going full custom liquid cooler. There is a bracket kit in the shop CW-8960017 http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-series-h75-h105-intel-lga-1150-1155-1556-1366-2011-mounting-bracket-kit

But it doesn't say that it mounts to LGA1151 even though H75 does mount to 1151. So what I am wondering, does CW-8960017 kit mount to 1151?

1156, 1155, 1150, and 1151 are all the same mount pattern. Therefore if it says it fits any of those it will fit 1151.

 

Side note: Last time Intel changed the mainstream mount pattern/spacing was going from 775-->1156, so you're good with any cooler that fits 1156 or newer.

Interesting, did not know that. There is no problem fitting with the back plate either?

 

Shouldn't have any issues, no. Some boards have components or solder ends sticking out that may prevent the use of the little pads (or in the case of the solder spikes you can just push them through the pad), but that applies to every other socket, the same way it applies to 1151.
