Thermalright HR-02

[ReVo_007]

Hi guys,
I have a thermalrightHR-02 as a cooler on my old PC which is of socket LGA1155. I am thinking of changing the setup to the newer 8th Gen. I wanted to know if the cooler is compatible with the newer sockets? Or do we need some new brackets for the same?

Why not refer to its product page?

I think so its compatible but check it once.
If not then go with Cooler Master Hyper 212 LED Red @ 2.8k

Well, that didn't open up for me, and the google result I got was for the archive site, which did not have any mention of the latest compatibility.

I am just asking, cause anyone having the first-hand experience would have a better opinion. I already have an HR-02 so just wanted to see if I have to get a new cooler as well if I plan to upgrade anytime soon.[DOUBLEPOST=1523221388][/DOUBLEPOST]I got my answer
