AM4 CPU cooler brackets size. AM3?

The bracket / holes are slightly different. Some cooler vendors are offering free upgrade kits, and I think some others can be modded. I’m probably going to mod my Nepton 140XL for AM4, if

Had a quick question for the smart folk out there about cooler compatibility. Wanted to know if the Wraith Prism AM4 cooler is backwards compatible with the AM3+ socket. My father’s CPU fan died in my very first

I’ve got 2 AM3+ coolers that should be able to dissipate , the stock AMD one and a Cooler Master Hyper Tx3 (not EVO). Both of them use clips. Both of them use clips. I’ll see

I do have my old Ryzen 5600G AM4 which has its bundled cooler with it and while i have read that this will fit the new AM5 socket i do wonder, if its enough. I know a better Noctua or something

The short answer is yes, you can fit an AM3 cooler on AM4. The mounting holes are the same distance apart so any AM3 cooler will work just fine. However, there are some differences between the two that you should be

I got an aio cooler for christmas. But realised its an Intel aio and my system is amd and i have ryzen cpu, but i have some spare brackets so the aio will fitt but im too scared to turn my

AMD has just informed us, that the new ‪#*AM4‬ CPUs will use the standard mounting holes that has become the norm since AM2. This means, all Thermalright coolers will be compatible to

I’ve got 2 AM3+ coolers that should be able to dissipate , the stock AMD one and a Cooler Master Hyper Tx3 (not EVO). Both of them use clips. I’ll see what temps and noise

For coolers that do not yet include AM4 mounting hardware, we offer free-of-charge mounting-upgrade kits (NM-AM5/4-MP83 for coolers with 83mm mounting pitch and NM-AM5/4-MP78 for

Some cooler vendors are offering free upgrade kits, and I think some others can be modded. I’m probably going to mod my Nepton 140XL for AM4, if Cooler Master isn’t offering anything. Or

2. the CPU cooler The picture shows an Intel 11xx waterblock, mounted on top of an AM4 CPU. Intel is using a square mount, and Intel board, do not come with a backplate, this

SO i’ve been thinking of having 2 possible upgrade paths, and since I already have an AM3+ cooler on hand I thought to either go for an FX chip like the FX-8320 and an AM3+ motherboard since FX CPUs are relatively

You can’t use it for an Intel CPU as it fits the AMD AM4 socket. As for its cooling capabilities it is just fine but investing in even a basic tower cooler will get you better thermals. As for its cooling

That’s one of the few coolers for AM4 that requires its own backplate, it will not work with AM5. The only solution is a different cooler or whatever bracket they can send you.

With the transition from AMD’s AM3 to AM4 socket, a natural question arises: can an AM3 CPU cooler be effectively used on an AM4 motherboard? The short answer is yes, but as with many

Are AM3+ and AM4 cooler backwards compatible? I cannot find any coolers that support AM4 at all, yet I see plenty of people doing builds with the same coolers I’ve already

If the manufacturer states compatibility yes, but the AM4 bracket is slightly different than the AM3 one.

I know that some other vendors weren’t sure of AM5 compatibility and told customers that their AM4 coolers weren’t out-of-the-box AM5 compatible before later realizing that they would be.

Confirmed: you’ll be able to install current AMD AM4 coolers on AM5. It has been five years since the “Ryzen” brand was created. On this auspicious occasion, the gentlemen

Thought i would check out if my AM4 Cpu cooler could fit my AM3+ Mobo, Turns out not without alot of work =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=–=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

I think only certain boards actually have built in support for am3 coolers, but the only one I can think of off the top of my head that does so is the Crosshair VI Hero; all others
