based on NZXT website the cooer X73 should be compatible with LGA 1200 intel socket.

 

But on the box and on the instruction it doesn't seem to indicate it is compatible.

 

Will I be able to fix them together ? Pls advise!

It will work. The mounting method and spacing is still the exact same as the 115X sockets.

I does work, the cooler came out before LGA 1200, LGA 115x coolers are fully compatible with LGA 1200

PSA: No, I didn't waste all that money on computers, (except the main one) my server cost $40, the intel NUC was my old PC (although then it had 8GB of ram, I gave the bigger stick of ram to a person who really needed it), my laptop is used and the second PC is really cheap.

I like tinkering with computers and have a personal hatred towards phones and everything they represent (I daily drive an iPhone 7, or a 6, depends on which one works that day)
