Thermal Grizzly TG-HPHS-I-V1

The diamond-milled precision surface of the Intel High Performance Heatspreader V1 offers a 207% larger contact surface for CPU coolers. The nickel-plated copper cooler replaces the standard heatspreader of the CPU and the Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM) of the mainboard and can only be used with delidded processors.The Intel High Performance Heatspreader V1 is an upgrade heatspreader for Intel processors. The nickel-plated copper heatspreader has a 207 percent larger, diamond-milled precision surface. This increased surface area compared to the original heatspreader enables maximum heat dissipation for air and water coolers, while the precision milling ensures extremely low surface roughness for the best contact with the heat sink.The nickel-plated surface of the Intel High Performance Heatspreader V1 is compatible with traditional thermal pastes and gallium-based liquid metals. The nickel forms a barrier layer between the liquid metal and the copper cooler so that liquid metal does not diffuse into the copper and alloy formation is minimized. This means that multiple applications of liquid metal are generally not necessary.Note on the use of KryoSheet and mono blocks:- The Intel High Performance Heatspreader V1 has been extensively tested internally in various application scenarios. During development, great emphasis was placed on stable operation of the processor and RAM. In our test series, KryoSheet in combination with the Intel High Performance Heatspreader V1 was unable to achieve any significant improvements in terms of temperature and was problematic in terms of contact pressure. For this reason, we cannot recommend the use of thermal pads because their additional thickness has a strong influence on the contact pressure and can therefore impair the function.When using mono blocks for the mainboard, the mounting height and thermal pads may need to be adjusted. It is important to check whether there is contact between the Intel High Performance Heatspreader V1 and the mono block. If you have any questions, please contact Thermal Grizzly support at any time.Features:- Replaces ILM and heatspreader- 207% larger surface area- Made from nickel-plated copper- Diamond milled precision surface- Compatible with air and water coolers- CPU compatibility list available onlineSpecifications:- Material: nickel-plated copperCompatibility note:The Intel High Performance Heatspreader V1 is compatible with the following processors:- Intel 12th Gen CPUs- Intel 13th Gen CPUs- Intel 14th Gen CPUsIn the box:- 1x Intel High Performance Heatspreader V1- 4x pan-head screws UNC thread 3/8´´- 1x hexagon socket wrench 5/64´´- 1x angle wrench Torx T20
