I was building a new system with an Intel i9 14900KS. A friend of mine told me about these. It goes on well and seems like a much better solution than the default lever-based device that comes with the motherboards.. There are numerous reviews on YouTube showing how effective they are at reducing temperatures.

This thing definitely improves upon the standard retention bracket. Dropped my temperatures by a few Celsius just by itself. I wasn't sure about all the hype, but I'm a firm believer now. The 14th gen i9 chips get so hot that any improvement in temps is more than welcome. Plus, the additional benefit of keeping that CPU from bending or warping over time, as this bracket clamps down evenly around the chip. I decided to opt for a Noctua NH-D15 dual-tower, dual-fan setup on top of this thermalright plate and I've got temps to manageable levels without much concern that I'm topping out my temps and throttling the cpu. The included thermal paste is a bonus. It spreads well and performs well. I ordered my go-to Arctic MX-4 intending to use it, but the thermalright paste is proving to be very efficient. I'll be using these mods for all future builds. Beware, just do not tighten with too much force. I use 2 fingers on the included hex key / allen wrench and apply just enough force to secure the plate to the board, then I back it off by 1/8th of a turn. Plenty of YouTube vids covering the installation and performance of these brackets, so go ahead and get familiarized with the product before purchase and installation. This gets my highest 5/5 star recommendation.

I never liked the original hold-down. It's easy to use, but I'm an engineer and I just don't like the way the standard hardware fits. I also had one core always a little warm. I wouldn't have changed anything, but I wanted to replace the slightly noisy RGB fans on my 360mm AIO cooler with BeQuiet 3s, so since I was going to be dragging the cooler out I decided to install this too. No problems removing the old one, and just a tiny bit of extra care needed in fitting this. It is very precisely the right size, so you need to be sure that it is sat down properly. At first it seemed right, but a slight shift and it dropped down the final mm and locked in place. The original screws secure it without any feeling of crushing, but when done the processor has no movement anywhere. After re-attaching the cooler the system fired right up. With the change of fans and use of a fan controller the processor is running cooler and I don't have anything getting close to throttling. This is only a minor part of the solution, but better safe than sorry. Worth the 'investment'.

I purchased this item for a 12th gen Intel CPU as I had heard about the problems with bending and higher CPU temps. This was something I deemed necessary and chose to purchase. For under $10, you get the bracket, thermal paste, and a tool to remove the original bracket and install the new one. That is good value for the price you pay. It was extremely easy to install, performance of the CPU is satisfactory, and the ease of mind knowing the CPU won't bend is nice. There were no issues installing the CPU cooler in my experience. I think this is must have for anyone with a 12/13/14th gen Intel CPU and would absolutely recommend.

I'm so glad this exists. Don't assume it's not as good as another brand just because this one is more affordable. It's absolutely perfect and is so simple to install.I was kicking myself because I'd forgotten some of the before-and-after testing I wanted to do when I installed this, but I feel good knowing that my cooler is mounted better than before and is able to achieve maximum efficacy.

It works as described. It's easy to install, just don't go crazy with the torque.After performing some benchmarks, I noticed that the temperature went down 10c and performance increased 10-15%. I have a 12900k, and I can appreciate what this upgrade does for my system which relies only on air cooling. It no longer reaches 100c, and remains in the 80s under stress, which is impressive. Average temperature when idle or light workloads is in the low 30s.Highly recommend it!

I don't know if it changes temps or no, first time i use bracket and cpu air cooler but happy overall.I used it with their cpu air cooler assassins king 120 SE ARGB for 12400F because intel cooler was not cooling and loud and gaming temps above 70C and sometimes reaching almost 80C with airflow case and idle 60s CAlso used the thermal paste TF7 but going to change it in future, my temps idle are like 42-47C and when playing Warzone 2 its like 65-70ish C.I know 12400F doesn't need aftermarket cpu coolers but i just wanted to be silent and cooler. Who knows? Might upgrade in future and use same cpu cooler.
