Hello everyone,
I'm using an old PC from 2008 with a Pentium Dual core E5200 CPU and an Asus P5KPL-AM MOBO (775 Socket). The stock cooling fan is broken, so I need to replace it. I'm unsure which new fans will fit my system. I came across the ARCTIC Alpine 11 Rev. 2 CPU Cooler, which supports the 775 socket, but I want to confirm compatibility. Could anyone recommend suitable cooling fans for my motherboard and CPU? Thanks in advance.

When checking compatibility, there are just two factors to consider: socket type and height, which determine if the CPU cooler will fit the case.
