I really liked the fact that the Noctua I bought back in 2009 for LGA 775 had a mounting kit available for LGA 1150 in 2012 when I upgraded. The specific Noctua model is NH-C12P but they don't make those any more. Anyways, looks like these days Noctua has a "SecuFirm2™ mounting system" which fits multiple sockets.
