Why Accurate Specs Matter:
Reliable Replacement: Match the part number, connector type, and voltage to ensure full compatibility and functionality.
Upgrades or Mods: If you’re upgrading to a higher-TDP CPU, knowing your socket (LGA 1155) and internal clearance helps identify advanced aftermarket cooling options.
Maintenance & Troubleshooting: Understanding fan behavior and specs aids in diagnosing abnormal noises, overheating, or fan control issues.
Installation Notes:
Always disconnect the power before installation.
Apply thermal paste (if not pre-applied) to ensure optimal heat transfer.
Align the heatsink evenly and tighten screws in a diagonal pattern to prevent uneven pressure.
Replacement: If your fan fails, you need to find a compatible replacement. Matching the part number, connector type and voltage is essential for proper functionality.
Upgrading (Less Common): While not a typical upgrade, some users might consider a higher-performance cooler if they upgrade their CPU to a more powerful one that generates more heat. In this case, knowing the socket type (usually Intel LGA 1155/1156 for this generation) and the space available in the case is important.
