Aftermarket heatsink compatibility

[jhafner]

hello;

if i bought a thermaltake frio heatsink or frio ock, would it be compatible with future sockets like 1150 haswell ?

regards...

if it fits 1155 then it will fit 1150

same 75mm between the mounting holes

I'd suggest going through this thread, it does spread some light on the chips to come.

Although it maybe a little too early to say this since they are pretty much capable of changing the final layout near the end.
