Noctua confirms CPU coolers are compatible with Intel LGA1200

The heatsink mounting on Intel's new LGA1200 platform (code name Comet Lake S) is identical to all LGA115x sockets (LGA1150, LGA1151, LGA1155, LGA1156).



Therefore, all Noctua CPU coolers that support LGA115x also support LGA1200 and don't require any mountig updates. Many other cooler models that do not support LGA115x can be made compatible free of charge with the NM-i115x Upgrade-Kit. The following models include a mounting-kit for socket LGA1200/LGA115x and are thus compatible out of the box:

  • NH-C12P SE14
  • NH-C14
  • NH-C14S
  • NH-D15
  • NH-D15 chromax.black
  • NH-D15S
  • NH-D14
  • NH-L12
  • NH-L12S
  • NH-L9i
  • NH-L9i chromax-black
  • NH-L9x65
  • NH-U14S
  • NH-U12A
  • NH-U12S
  • NH-U12S chromax.black
  • NH-U12P SE2
  • NH-U9S
  • NH-D9L
  • NH-U9B SE2

In addition, all older models which have been upgraded with the NM-I3 kit can also be used on LGA115x without any further upgrades. The following models can be made compatible with the LGA1200 socket free of charge using the NM-i115x upgrade-kit:

  • NH-C12P
  • NH-D15 SE-AM4
  • NH-L9x65 SE-AM4
  • NH-U12
  • NH-U12F
  • NH-U12P
  • NH-U12P SE1366
  • NH-U12S SE-AM4
  • NH-U9
  • NH-U9F
  • NH-U9B.

The following models can be made compatible with the LGA1200 socket using the NM-i115x upgrade-kit but are not eligible for Noctua‘s free mounting offer, so users have to purchase the kit at local resellers:NH-U12DO (Note that the A3 version is not compatible!)

  • NH-U12DX
  • NH-U12DX 1366
  • NH-U12DX i4
  • NH-U9DX i4
  • NH-U9DX 1366
  • NH-U9DO (Note that the A3 version is not compatible!)

The following models are not compatible with the LGA1200 socket and can not be upgraded:NH-U14S TR4-SP3

  • NH-U12S TR4-SP3
  • NH-U9 TR4-SP3
  • NH-U12DO A3
  • NH-U9 DO A3
  • NH-L9a
  • NH-L9a-AM4
  • NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.black
