Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Good question! Although I don't have the answer I'll post that the normal sockets are 37.5mm x 37.5mm compared to your Alder Lake is 37.5mm x 45.0mm. I'm sure someone more experienced can answer but I would "suggest" that using the Corsair cooler would work...PENDING the motherboard brackets fit both your Corsair cooler and your motherboard. I'd check those first (maybe take your Alder Lake bracket into a Best Buy to measure up). If they're compatible then I'd say go for it! Some of the other brands of coolers have the same size brackets (obviously) but their pump plates are round, not rectagular like Corsairs. So, if I was you I'd take the brackets in (or at least the measurements) to a Best Buy first. If they are the same then I'd get the iCue Cooler and install. If it works, great! If not...Best Buy's Return Policy is very good! Better yet...contact Corsair for a more accurate answer. Good luck!
