XIGMATEK ACK-I5361 + OCZ Vendetta 2 = solution for LGA 1156?

Did the vendetta come with a 1156 backplate and mounting kit? Is your mobo one with 1366 and 1156 holes?

Maybe look at the OCZ product page?

Typically each company has it's own proprietary mounting system.

the OCZ Vendetta 2 doesn't have an 1156 mounting system out.

However the vendetta 2 is supposedly a clone (or at least very similarly designed) of the Xigmatek HDT-S1283 which the XIGMATEK ACK-I5361 LGA1156 mounting kit works with.

So I'm wondering if the XIGMATEK ACK-I5361 kit would work with the Vendetta 2. I tried googling but there doesn't seem to be anyone who's tried.

So I received the kit and it works with the Vendetta 2 as I was told.

Good to know.

I don't have an 1156 board but I knew that the Xigmatek and Vendetta brackets were interchangeable for 1366 boards as I've gone that route.
