## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this cooler fit with   teamgroup t-force xtreem arg if i put the fan on top**
A: My fan is on top. Make sure it is blowing thru the cooler for the best temp reduction. Not the best setup but gets the job done. Do not over-clock you CPU .

**Q: Dose anyone know what kind of temps one could expect pairing this with a ryzen 5 2600 would this be adequate for cooling?**
A: The best way to check is to see the CPU Comparability List at the Noctua website for this cooler:  https://noctua.at/en/nh-l12s/cpucomp. For the Ryzen 5 2600 there is a caveat that it has "low turbo/overclocking headroom". 

FYI, on the 1600X the caveat is "compatible without turbo/overclocking headroom".  The footnote for the Core i7-8700 is the same as that of the 1600X. 

I am looking at this cooler solution for both the 1600 and the 1600X (different systems) as I am downsizing from a larger Fractal Design Define R series case and massive Noctua NH-D14 but may have to rethink the strategy. Massive coolers in massive cases have an advantage over smaller coolers in smaller cases.

**Q: does this support socket LGA 1151?**
A: Yes, per specifications on Noctua's website. https://noctua.at/en/nh-l12s/specification

**Q: If i buy this cooler today will it come with a mounting bracket compatible with an am3+ cpu?**
A: Yes, it does. It works flawlessly.
