you want to put it on the case or the processor itself?

it should fit...take the cover off and check out if they match up...its usually 2-4 screws so its not too much trouble if it doenst fit

Amd fans wont fit on Intel procs, unless it has a universal mount like a Zalman. Different mounting points.

As stated unless it come swith a universsal kit it wont fit. Also note your gonna try to run it on a faster and slightly hotter CPU so even if it fits, long term you might have issues.

AMD and Intel don't make the same products on purpose... Because of this, everyone elses products revolve around making them for each. It is rare to find something that's universal fitting.
