Zalman Mounting Kit LGA1700 TYPE-A

This mounting kit from Zalman is exactly what you need if you want to transfer an existing air cooler to a new platform with LGA 1700. Essentially, you get a set of mounting brackets designed specifically for the newer generation of Intel sockets. The color is black, so it doesn't stand out in cleaner builds and cases with windows. It is suitable for specific series of Zalman coolers, so you don't risk using universal and questionable fitting solutions.

What you get is a secure and correct installation of your compatible Zalman CPU cooler on an LGA 1700 motherboard. This is important not only to “secure” it but also to ensure proper pressure and good contact between the cooler and the processor, which is critical for temperatures. The kit is a type of mounting brackets, meaning it serves as an adapter between your old cooler and the new standard socket. If you have any of the models CNPS10x, CNPS16x, CNPS17x, or CNPS20x, this is the official way to continue using them after upgrading the platform. The added 12 months warranty gives you peace of mind that you are getting an original and reliable part.

• Compatibility with CPU socket LGA 1700, so you can connect your cooler to current Intel platforms.
• Type: mounting brackets, specially designed for proper installation and pressure between the cooler and the processor.
• Designed for Zalman coolers from the series CNPS10x, CNPS16x, CNPS17x, and CNPS20x, without the need for improvisations and mods.
• Design in black color, which looks unobtrusive in most builds and does not ruin the appearance through a glass panel.
• Official mounting kit from Zalman, which reduces the risk of poor contact, bent brackets, or incompatible holes.
• 12 months warranty, so if there is a problem with the workmanship or fit, you are covered.

It is suitable for you if you already have a Zalman CNPS10x, CNPS16x, CNPS17x, or CNPS20x and want to switch to Intel socket LGA 1700 without buying a new CPU cooler. If your cooler is from another series or another manufacturer, this kit is simply not for it, and it is good to check separately what you need.

The most sensible thing here is that with one small mounting kit, you extend the life of a serious Zalman cooler and make the transition to LGA 1700 clean, secure, and without unnecessary improvisations.
