Help needed with installing CPU Cooler

Hey there,

While building my first PC I've encountered a problem.

 

While trying to install "Coolermaster Hyper 612 v2" on an 1151 socket, there wasn't any instruction in the user manual regarding this socket even though the cooler description says it supports 1151.

The user manual mentions how to install on 1366/1150/1156/1155/775 and AMD sockets.

 

How should I proceed?

Cab i install it similar to any of the above-mentioned sockets? Thanks.

Follow the 1156/1155 socket instructions and you'll be fine.

 

It's likely they haven't updated their manual since the release of 1151 sockets.

LGA115x is the exact same hole size so just use those instructions

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
