LGA 775 heatsinks work on 1155 by any chance?

[Fallengod]

Just wondering, since I dont own a LGA 1155 board or anything, I have like 3 different LGA 775 heatsinks for my core2duos. Any chance these will work on 1155?

no, unless they are aftermarket and you can get a 1155 kit for it

boooooo

Ok thanks. And yes, I am talking about aftermarket coolers, not stock. I have a plethora of them.

Some of the cooler manufacturers offer mounting kits that will fit the 1155/1156 boards. Not all, but several of the "better" companies do.

so while it's highly uncommon, asrock does support LGA 775 HSFs on their socket 1155 mobos

Perhaps if you told us WHAT coolers you have, we could help more.

I wasnt looking for that much help, I can look that stuff up. It looks like it is just a bracket for the zalmans.

I have a zalman 9500 cu, some zerotherm zen, a cooler master hyper tx2, thermalright ultra 120 I believe.

I see there is a $4.99 bracket on newegg for zalmans.

I am not in any hurry for the build as I dont even plan on buying a new cpu/mobo for another month or two. I was just curious.
