What is the proper fan to use with an E5-2660v2 or E5-2670v2 processor?

This is my first time purchasing tray processors. My new server is a 3U rack case with dual E5-2600 processors. I have narrowed my decision down to either the E5-2660v2 or E5-2670v2 model. Due to cost considerations, I am looking at purchasing tray processors. How do I identify the proper fan to use with them?

Thanks

Hello CowboyJed,

The correct fan for this processor should be for 115W TDP. This part number E94315 can cool up to 130W.

Thanks.

They were a little difficult to track down, but I have 2 of them on the way.

Much less expensive than the $800 difference they wanted for both processors to include the fan.

I now feel comfortable ordering the tray processors knowing that they will be properly cooled.
