I have a 1155 motherboard I got on eBay for about $30 (HP 614491-002 Z210) that used to belong to a system unit
And I got a stock cooler advertised to fit the 1155 socket - also from eBay for about $5
So everything arrives, and the stock cooler doesn't fit on the motherboard
I tried to see if the heat sink wasn't the right size by putting it on another 1155 motherboard I own -- and it worked-- so it's not that the cooler is the wrong size - does this motherboard require a specific cooler?
I should add, although it might not matter - the 1155 motherboard the the cooler did fit on was a micro atx form factor -- the board that it WONT fit on is a full sized ATX board
Any help is appreciated - thank you so much
