Thermal Grizzly Ryzen 7000 Direct Die Frame

The AMD Ryzen 7000 Direct Die Frame is a CPU mounting frame for mounting Ryzen 7000 * processors without the integrated heat spreader.

By omitting the heat spreader, the CPU cooler can be mounted directly on the processor's chiplets, which means that significantly lower temperatures are possible during operation.

This is not only interesting for extreme overclockers on the hunt for records, but also for gamers and content creators.

Cooling the processor is important for gaming PCs and desktop workstations, so that they are not slowed down during rendering operations, for example, or enable the highest possible FPS when gaming. Silent PCs for multi-media applications also benefit from better heat dissipation from the processor. In addition to a good cooling solution, PC enthusiasts use the "heads" of CPUs to optimize heat dissipation.

When a CPU is decapitated, the processor's heat spreader is removed. Often this is done to replace the thermal conductors used by the manufacturer with higher quality thermal compounds or liquid metal such as Thermal Grizzly's Conductonaut before the heatspreader is reassembled. With the so-called "Direct Die", the heat spreader is completely omitted, so that the base plate of the CPU cooler has direct contact with the CPU.

When the CPU cooler is mounted directly on the CPU chips, the heat generated during operation of the CPU is dissipated directly to the cooler and does not have to be transferred through the heat spreader first. This makes heat dissipation more efficient and the CPU is better cooled. The task of the AMD Ryzen 7000 Direct Die Frames is to protect the exposed chiplets of the Ryzen 7000 CPU. Without a direct die frame, the function of the CPU can be impaired by the contact pressure of the CPU cooler. Problems with the main memory are particularly common here. In the worst case, the CPU can become unusable.

• Compatible with AMD Ryzen 7000*
• Allows mounting of decapitated Ryzen CPUs
• Easy construction
• Anodized aluminum

*Danger! Compatibility Notice

The AMD Ryzen 7000 Direct Die Frame is NOT compatible with the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D! Thermal Grizzly assumes no liability fordamage to the CPU! This AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D incompatibility only affects the AMD Ryzen 7000 Direct Die Frame. Processors that have already been decapitated can be used with the AM5 High-Performance Heatspreader and the water coolers of the AM5 Mycro Direct Die series .
