Just had the stock coolers lined up for my last 4 processors... Kinda odd the size changes from one generation to the next...
From left to right they are for:
Core 2 Duo E8400 Dual Core 3GHz - Socket 775
Xeon X3210 Quad Core 2.13GHz - Socket 775
Core i7 920 Quad Core 2.67GHz - Socket 1366
Core i5 2500K Quad Core 3.33GHz - Socket 1155
 
There's nothing to the Xeon or 1155 coolers, so skinny and light... While the E8400 came with the same style cooler that I think just about every 775 CPU used to come with. The 1366 cooler is the same basic design, just on steroids. Copper bases on the 1366 and 1155 coolers only. |
