Thermal Grizzly Intel LGA1851 V1 CPU Contact Frame – Cooling Upgrade

The Thermal Grizzly Intel LGA1851 V1 CPU Contact Frame is a precision-engineered mounting frame designed specifically for Intel’s next-generation LGA1851 socket. Standard ILM (Integrated Loading Mechanism) brackets can create uneven mounting pressure on the CPU, leading to bending, poor cooler contact, and higher operating temperatures.

Developed in collaboration with der8auer, this V1 contact frame ensures even mounting pressure across the CPU’s IHS, helping maintain a flat surface and significantly improving thermal transfer between the processor and cooler. The result is lower temperatures, more stable performance, and enhanced overclocking potential.

Manufactured from CNC-machined anodized aluminum, the LGA1851 V1 frame offers excellent durability with lightweight precision. It is compatible with most high-performance air and liquid cooling solutions, making it a must-have upgrade for enthusiasts, overclockers, and PC builders using Intel’s upcoming Arrow Lake CPUs.
