Noctua wants you to be able to use its existing CPU coolers on the upcoming Intel Core i5 and Core i7 processors when they are released here in the next few weeks. Obviously, upgrading to a new socket format requires a new motherboard and in this case, the mounting setup is not compatible with previous LGA sockets from Intel. Noctua is offering the NM-13 mounting kit which will enable you to use any Noctua cooler made since 2005 on socket LGA1156 motherboards. You can take advantage of this free offer by going to Noctua's web site and filling out an online form. Not surprisingly, Noctua asks that you provide proof of purchase in the form of the original invoice for both the cooler and either a LGA1156/LGA1366 mainboard or LGA1156/LGA1366 CPU. Noctua even makes it easy in case you no longer have the original CPU cooler invoice with details provided on the form web page.
