Thermalright Intel 12th/13th Generation LGA1700 Anti-Bending Buckle,CPU Stress Bending Correction Fixer, Curved Pressure Plate,Fully Fitted and Fixed Without Trace Installation (Black)

Works. Got my temps down a little bit.

Multiple cores of my i9-12900KS CPU always peaked at 100 degC during Cinebench R23 multi-core tests conducted at 21 degC ambient. I tried several thermal paste application methods/patterns, ...but following AIO pump assembly removal, the paste residue pattern was always evenly distributed with no evidence of CPU IHS cover bending/warping from the motherboards standard LGA1700 CPU mounting solution.

I didn’t notice a change to my thermals, but it makes my install look cleaner

13900k/Liquid Freezer II 360/Z790 Aorus Master - no improvement in temps unfortunately. Well built and easy to install however.

If you have a 12th or 13th gen processor, this is a must have. I installed this frame on two different computers and it dropped temps by at least 8 degrees on each. Install is super easy if you follow the steps in the Gamers Nexus youtube video.

Look I realize Thermal Grizzly basically thought of these as a solution for the 1700 socket bend but they’re super expensive and hard to find in the States. And yes, there are even some builders that believe these contact frames are just a trend and are nothing more than a security blanket for a nonissue. And in same cases that’s absolutely true. Some CPUs IHS are perfectly fine with the socket bend I had 4 that were completely fine with or without the contact frame. But after 15 builds with extreme socket bend making for poor contact with heatsinks I can say this helps more often than not. This contact frame has lowered temps by upwards of 8C on my builds and yes I tested each one. So yes, in my professional opinion Intel created a problem, never addressed it and these are the best solution, especially for anything Core i7 and up. The fact that Thermal Right created these at such a reasonable price and are indeed just as effective as Thermal Grizzly’s (check Gamers Nexus) seems too good to be true, but as I’ve said I’ve used these on 15 builds and they’re worth every penny.

I was skeptical, but after struggling with my OC 13700K temps despite custom loop I decided to give this a try. No change in ambient, test, or overclock with a 12 degree delta. 12 degrees for a ten minute installation is massive. Cinebench caps at 88 now when I was hitting 100 and throttling previously. 5.7ghz all core and happy.

I used this on an Intel Core i7-13700K with an ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 420 for cooling. With the stock frame a few of the cores kept spiking over 100C under load, forcing them to thermally throttle. Since the same cores were overheating every time, it seemed like the CPU wasnt properly mating with the cooler, which is exactly what this product is designed to fix.

Literally dropped temps by 20c just by adding this to my i5 12600k.
