Accepted Answer

Yes. I have Asus X99 with intel i7 5820. fits perfectly.

Question 2

Is this a four-lead PWM powered cooler?

Accepted Answer

Yes.

Question 3

Does this come with thermal paste preapplied?

Accepted Answer

Yes, however I removed it using Isopropyl Alcohol and applied Arctic Silver 5 to it. Cools very well.

Question 4

Just want to confirm this will also work with the i7-5960x Xtreme CPU?

Thanks

Accepted Answer

Yes it will i have used it several times with that CPU. This CPU fan cools the processor just fine but as an extra step i also add another chassis fan to the box as this super fast processor gets hot.

Question 5

this looks like my cpu fan but the number i have is CNFN2512D1 is this compatible?

Accepted Answer

Yes it is the wrong fans X2, and it took way to long to get the like all other orders did but I'll go somewhere else to get what I need, thanks for asking

Question 6

Will this work on an Asus Sabertooth X79 motherboard with an Intel I7-3930k CPU?

Accepted Answer

This gentlemen used the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo with a kit for the 17-3930. The kit is a Intel® Retention Bracket Set for LGA2011:

Here's the youtube link title with the build:
Newegg TV: Intel Sandy Bridge-E Review and Benchmarks - Core i7 3960X CPU & Socket 2011 X79 Platform

Since you can see the build (02:09 mark), and the guy is a pro, we know that the Evo 212 will work for sure with your CPU socket. The BXTS13A is a no guarantee for anything unless you can see the build in a video for yourself. Good Luck!

Question 7

is this for i7-5820k?

Accepted Answer

Yes this will work with both the i7-4800 and i7-5800 series processors. LGA 2011 and LGA 2011-v3 as they are called.

Question 8

Hello there
What is thermal resistence of this cooler? 
Thank you

Accepted Answer

To start off with, I bough this as a back up when my water cooling loop broke, worked decent for games but would not recommend for long term use with high end gaming rigs, I could not find a definitive answer to your question, my 6820k ran at a constant 70-80c with a positive fan pressure in my case.

Question 9

I have a intel CNFN2512D1  is this the same as the BXTS13A?

Accepted Answer

Hello,

Thank you for contacting us in regards to your question.

It looks to be similar, however please check with the manufacturer for compatibility with your motherboard.

The best way to confirm specs is actually by checking the manufacturer's website. With many of our products you can click on the "Warranty & Returns" tab and you will find the Manufacturer's contact info, including the manufacturer's website.

Thank you,

Question 10

Will this work for the new LGA 2066 CPUs? I already bought one for a 2011v3 socket CPU in 2015.

Accepted Answer

Intel only lists LGA2011sockets as being compatible with this cooler. Google "bxts13a intel" and look for the Intel site Instruction Manual for this product.
