Good to know
- Not the same as LGA1700/LGA1851: coolers listed only for LGA1200/115x need LGA1700 mounting hardware for newer Intel boards.
- Noctua: the NH-L9i-17xx's thicker base raises mounting pressure too much for LGA115x/LGA1200 and may cause irreversible damage; use the original NH-L9i there.
