AMD socket 754/939/940 platform

 

XP-90 is designed to fit all AMD socket 754/939/940 motherboards (*Gigabyte K8 motherboards see below). So far, we have not found any board that is not compatible with XP-90. If you've found any, we would appreciate if you could report them to here.

 

* Unlike other motherboard makers, Gigabyte uses a customized plastic motherboard backplate for its K8 motherboards, which is not compatible with XP-90 K8 retention bracket. Users need to remove it and replace it with a standard metal backplate before installation of Thermalright XP series heatsink. For more information regarding AMD K8 backplate please see Athlon64 processor thermal design guide (Fig. 5 & 6). And the metal backplate is also available from Thermalright here.

** Large fan bearing heatsinks (80-92-120mm) can encounter problems with motherboards with sockets close to the edge of the motherboard and some cases with power supply brackets. Another potential problem with these types of motherboards can be large fans mounted in the bottom of the power supply and without the fan drills recessed.
