Hello everyone! :)

Quick question: I have bought my Titan Fenrir (NK85TZ) cooler almost 2 years ago for my X3 720 but I'm upgrading to 2500K soon. Back then there was no 1155 sockets and I need an adapter for my cooler so I can set it up on a 1155 socket. Question is where do I get/find the adapter?
I checked the vendor page and now they ship that same cooler with a 1155 bracket which I need. Is the 1155 bracket universal(fits any type of cooler) or do I need a specific one that fits my cooler model? I don't want to sell my heatsink cheapo just to buy a new one with an 1155 adapter, I'd rather just buy a new fan for it (CM Blade Master on my mind) and keep using it.

Thank you in advance.

Shoot an email over to Titan support and ask if they will deliver the new hardware at no cost.

EDIT: Looks like that cooler shipped with 1156 support. 1156 mounting = 1155 mounting;)
