FM2 cooler mounts

[R.C.Anderson]

Just a quick question...

From a google, it seems like the FM2 mounts are identical to all the other current AMD cooler mounts and, therefore, any cooler that fits on an AMD platform, will fit on FM2.

Can someone confirm this for me (I haven't been able to find any official sources of info for this)

They will fit. Announcement from Noctua about it:

I have a retail 939 heatsink on an AM2+ motherboard somewhere, love it

Thanks a lot for that, that was the sort of thing I was looking for. Noctua are great, always seem to be helpful (last time I emailed their customer services, they gave me a detailed drawing of my mobo with the D14 over the top to show what it would clash with )

Shame my old freezer 7 pro doesn't have AMD mounts (and it's probably too tall for my htpc case)
