Intel LGA2066 Quiet CPU Coolers
Intel’s LGA2066 (also known as socket R4) replaced LGA2011 in 2017 and is compatible with their Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X CPUs. These CPUs are designed specifically for high-end desktop and Workstation platforms due to their high core and thread count.
As always, if you are still unsure which CPU cooler is right for you, please read our article “How do I choose a CPU cooler?" and remember to check the TDP of your CPU to aid identifying a suitable cooler.
