Hi Guys,

 

I was planning to buy the new Intel I7 6700K and along with it a new all in one watercooler.

My previous cooler was a Corsair Hydro. I was wondering if these coolers fit on the new 1151 socket because it's not noted on the product page.

If these do not fit can you guys recommend me a good all in one cooler that does fit?

The mounting hardware for the 1151 socket is compatible with any previous 115x hardware so you won't have any issues reusing your cooler.

The 115x sockets all use the same mounting system, so anything compatible with 1156/55/50 is compatible with 1151
