I'm shopping for compatible heatsink for socket 2011v3, I messaged a guy selling one that had one that the description advertised fits socket 2011. I asked dose it fit socket 2011v3? He says NO! 

So I'm using the term 2011v3 in my searches.  And the results are limited. I have specific requirements, the biggest one being price. So what words should I use in my search terms?

That guy I talked to said his cooler wouldn't fit, when I thought I would, wonder why he said that? Now I'm all F*ed up! Your sure 2011 and 2011v3 are compatible. Ok thanks. That's what I thought to start with. I'll go with that.😃

2011-v3 have 2 different bracket. Either it is narrow or square ILM.

The seller probably doesn't know which one fits yours so just to be safe saying it doesn't fit.

I myself too using 2011-v3 cpu. e5-2620v3 with china cooler brand Snowman MT6S. Temperature 32~45 ish Celcius.
