LGA1155 with 1366\2011 cooler

Hey gang, quick question, I have a Core i7 2600k CPU, with an Intel Z77 board. Does anyone know if the push pin spacing for the heatsink\cooler is the same for socket 1366 or 2011?
 
damn, so only 1155 and 1156 share the same push pin locations?

I'm kinda confused on what you want to do.

If you have an aftermarket cooler that is compatable with 1155/1156(same) it may be possible to just order the mounting kit for 1366/2011(same) or visa versa. If your talking the stock intel coolers then it's not possible.
 
Not that it's relevant to your question, more to just toss this out there, but at least some Z77 motherboards have cooler mounting holes for LGA775 coolers in addition to the 1155/56 holes.

not "some", just Asrock, and they call it by some special name.

as to the OP's question, some coolers come with the needed mounting brackets for the different sockets. If a high end cooler, this is likly. A low end cooler, not likly.
 
I wanna use the stock cooler, I'm not overclocking this system. Quick question, is the stock 2600k cooler the same as the stock 2500k cooler? or other SandyBridge coolers?
I know they mount the same, since they're the same socket, but physically are they identical? (Low Profile, Copper Base)?
