1156 vs 1155 Holespacing?

[Kosta 122]

The cooler that will fit 1156, also fits 1155? I have a Swiftech Apogee XT, which came with both 1156 and 1366 fittings, and I wonder if I would up to SB, if I could use the 1156 fitting?

As far as I know it should work ok. The position of the mounting holes is the same.

Looks like, am in the process of putting my 2500k and MSI mobo together and fitting my new Coolermaster 212 Plus, I had to use the 1156 holes for it to fit, so you should be fine.

Are you going to switch to SB Word Not Allowed? Every heatsink for 1156 is also suitable for 1155. Don't worry about that. Just use the 1156 brackets and you're good to go

Probably not. I was just wondering, in case.Right now, we have to equip our new house, and costs are permanently coming in - now summer, mosquito-nets for windows and an awning... we are talking 5000€ here. Sheesh.
