- Fan Speed: 2435 revolutions per minute
- Noise Level: 37.7 decibels adjusted
- Number of Fans Included: 2

- Product Height: 1.1811 millimeters (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Width: 4.92126 millimeters (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Radiator Size: 240 millimeters (The overall size of the radiator based on the number of fans held within multiplied by the individual fan size.)

Q: is this compatible with an i7 cpu?
A: You get motherboard hardware for both Intel and AMD in the box. The faster the cpu the hotter. Most people will be satisfied with this unit but if you plan to overclock and your case can handle it you might want to check out one of the corsair products that have larger radiators than the 240 on this product. I think there are 280 and 360 radiators available but your case has to have space to mount it or you'll be cutting holes in it and mounting it externally.
A: I doubt that you care after a month, but it should fit. I'm using one on an X470 board from Asus. On an AM4 board, it requires an adapter, which is included with current shipments of the cooler. You remove the stock lockdown brackets, and replace them with standoffs. The most difficult part of the whole process for me was replacing the original hold-downs on the cooler wit the AM4 adapter. Do you have enough space in your case for the radiator? (I notice you're using a mictoATX board.)
A: Usually bestbuy sales ares Sunday through Saturday (in my state at least). If there's a sale price, I'd only assume until the end of the week. or just grab a BestBuy Credit Card on the quicks and pay off your purchase of 200+ over 6mo without interest.
Q: Can I buy the mounting bracket kit separately at Best Buy?
A: No you cannot, the mounting kit for the unit is supplied with it and cannot be purchased separately at bestbuy. Some locations may by chance have one, but generally speaking no.
A: Will it work with AM4 (Ryzen CPUs)? Yes. Will it work on a GPU? While this is designed for a CPU, this MAY work on a GPU with a mod like the NZXT G12. TL:DR = CPU, yes. GPU, no.
Q: does the thermal paste come preapplied?
A: There will be pre-applied TIM on the bottom of the CPU block. Unless you have something awesome like MX-4 or better, the pre-applied TIM has already cured and is actually fairly decent. I use the pre-applied stuff until I relocate my coolers.
Q: Will this fit a LGA 2066 and an i7x series processor.
A: yes, it will fit any 2066 CPUs
A: Case is not a problem but if you're running 2066 socket you may need to reach out to Corsair for an adapter (unless it uses the same pieces as LGA1151 / 2011-3, then it will work out of the box), companies like that are usually pretty good about getting you the accessories you need
