Tower Plus EBT2250, Dell part# for 265k cooling tower

I want to provide additional cooling for my 265 cpu, so I just spent 30 minutes on the phone with a very helpful Dell sales agent. He provided me with the Dell part number for the cooling tower for the 265K cpu: CPX-C253W (called a CPU heat sink assembly). It’s priced at $59.99. It is scheduled to be delivered on October 16. After I receive it, I’ll confirm that it fits.

it is same premium tower cooler for XPS 8950/8960 LGA1700 socket which shares same cooler mounting distance with LGA1851 for Intel Ultra cpu in Pro PC.

LGA1851 uses the same dimensions and cooler mounting hole spacing as LGA 1700, ensuring continued CPU cooler compatibility.

I just installed the tower cooler and it works great. My Cinebench  readings went from 105°C to 80°C after installing it.
