Currently running an Intel Core 2 Q9550 (socket 775) with a Corsair H100 cooler.

I am planning to upgrade to a 4790K system soon on a socket 1150 and was hoping to bring the H100 over.

What do I need in terms of brackets, screws, etc? I remember getting some spare parts with the H100 when I bought it but all that is long gone. Can I use whatever the H100 is fastened on the socket 775 right now and apply it to the 1150 or do I need to get different parts? If so, what would be the best place to get those?

Out of the box it does fit on a 1155 socket though, which has the same mounting as 1150.
I am just wondering if I need to get any specific mounting parts replaced which I threw out unused when mounting it on the socket 775 Q9550.
