Been trying to investigate the fun world of LGA2011-3 coolers and it has been difficult.
The case can take a 240mm AIO, or it can take an aircooler up to 150mm in height. 145W is not a lot nowdays, but I am a little lost in all the options since the socket is old and has different variants.
Honestly, the cheaper, the better. If there's some aircooler that can do it for $50 it that would be preferred to getting a 240 AIO for $100.
One of the things I've seen mentioned is that LGA1366 coolers work on LGA2011, but I am not sure if this is true. If it is, then I might dig up my old LGA1366 custom loop and just utilize that. I'll just need new flexible tubing but that's not expensive.
The 2011-3 socket is in this variant:
Thanks in advance for any and all help!
