Posted May 26, 2018 Hello. I have recently purchased the motherboard to a Dell 6NWYK Precision T1600, and oddly enough, the heatsink from my Dell Poweredge II T110 isn't compatible, despite being the same socket, from the same company, in the same CPU range (Xeon E3 range). So, I was wondering, what Dell heatsinks are compatible with the T1600, and/or is there a way to adapt it so I can use a more normal heatsink?

Xeon E3 doesnt mean anything, they could be two different sockets Quote or Tag people so they know that you've replied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the CPU from the Dell Poweredge, the reason why I bought the new motherboard is that the one in the server didn't work with my GTX 1050.

Yeah, they seem to have a propietary heatsink mounting system as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
