Info on Antec kuhler box

[gam0reily]

I wanted to install an a new cooler for my i5 2500k & wanted to know if antec kuhler box would be good enough.

Also Antec's site says dat it is compatible with socket 1155. http://www.antec.com/Believe_it/product.php?id=MjQzOCYxOA==

But the newegg shows dat it isn't compatible with socket 1155. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835209029

So please tell me if it is good, and whether it can be installed on my cpu??

Thanx in advance!

If Antec says it is compatibl;e I think that they have the last word. The Newegg blurb looks like it is dated before the 1155 came on the market. The cooler predated the SB platform.

I use this website for evaluating coolers: http://www.rwlabs.com/. They have an extensive database and you may be able to find comparison info on the Antec and alternatives.

BTW i am a fanboy of the Antec H20 series and run the 620 on my home server and the 920 on my gamer.
