Optimized Contact Pressure for Maximum Cooling Performance
The standard Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM) has contact points located in the centre of the elongated CPU. Due to the resulting uneven contact pressure of the processor into the socket, the surface of the Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS) curves concavely. As a result, the base plate of the CPU cooler rests primarily on the edges of the IHS, so that the thermal "hotspot" in the middle of the CPU is not optimally covered.
The Intel 13th/14th Gen CPU Contact Frame has a special inner contour to shift the contact pressure from the centre of the CPU to the edges during assembly. This avoids the concave curvature of the IHS. This results in CPU coolers resting better on the processor and a larger contact surface to dissipate the CPU's waste heat.
The installation of the Contact Frame is very simple and takes only a few steps. Depending on the CPU cooler and the CPU used, the temperatures of the processor can be noticeably reduced.

Compatibility
The 13th/14th Gen CPU Contact Frame is compatible with 12th, 13th and 14th generation processors for socket LGA1700. In addition, the frame is compatible with CPUs whose Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS) has been ground down by no more than 0.2 millimetres. When mounting, make sure that there are no electronic components under the frame. This is especially important for mainboards with the Mini-ITX form factor.
Attention: Removing the Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM) of the mainboard may invalidate the manufacturer's warranty of the mainboard manufacturer!

With the Intel 13th/14th Gen CPU Contact Frame by der8auer, Thermal Grizzly offers an improved mounting solution for Intel LGA1700 socket motherboards. The contact frame replaces the motherboard’s standard ILM and optimizes contact pressure, helping to improve CPU cooler performance.
Compared to its predecessor, this updated version features a revised inner contour that significantly simplifies installation. As a result, the use of a specific torque during assembly is no longer required, making installation easier and more user-friendly.
The Contact Frame was designed in collaboration with Roman “der8auer” Hartung and is manufactured in Berlin — 100% Made in Germany. Roman Hartung is a mechatronic engineer and a well-known PC hardware enthusiast, content creator, and overclocker, who has been involved in the design of numerous overclocking-focused PC hardware products.
