Will my corsair h55 cooler work with 8th or 9th Gen Intel lga 1151 socket? I used it on an i7 2600 lga 1156 before. Can't find anything in the manual about 1151 installation. 

All the LGA 115x sockets (like 1150, 1151, 1155, etc.) use the same way of installing.

So yes, your H55 will work on a new 8th/9th gen CPU too, using the same mounting hardware you have now. You just need some new thermal paste.
