Hints towards finding compatible thermal solutions for Intel® Xeon Processors.
What fan to purchase that would work with the processor?
Contact the board manufacturer for a list of compatible thermal solutions (fans and/or heatsinks), based on the processor in question.
Notes:
* If the board/system is made by Intel, look into the Spares, Parts list, and Configuration Guide (click here) of the board/system.
* If unaware of what the exact model of the processor is, run the Intel® Processor Identification Utility.
* If the board inside is unknown, and the Operating System (OS) is Windows, check within the System Manufacturer line found under System Summary section of the System Information window (msinfo32).
