A:AnswerIt should work well with most CPUs.You can even add an additional fan onto the other side of the cooler to aid with cooling but the included fan should suffice.
A:AnswerThe one bestbuy currently has is NOT the newly updated LGA 1700 packaged box with the correct bracket. It is clearly labeled one the outside of the box if it’s the updated one, the one I received is not compatible and requires purchase of the additional kit separately or just buy from another vendor with the current updated version of this fan.
A:AnswerUsing PCPartPicker.com, It does say it is compatible. But, it does not check whether case width will accommodate the height. the case width is 163mm and the cooler height is 159 mm. You can grab one and test it because Best Buy has a fair return policy.
A:AnswerYes, it will work on that motherboard as it's a Socket 1151. As for whether or not it works, I have one on my 3900X and it keeps it pretty cool.
A:AnswerThe IPM87-MP Motherboard is an intel LGA 1150 socket board. This should show as supported on the coolers box. You may just want to check the height requirements for your case to make sure it will fit.
A:AnswerIf your mb does not have screw threaded holes around the chip, it will not work, backing plates on the later mbs are where the screws that are provided in the box hold down the cooler
