Product Description

AM5 Contact Sealing Frame

Combination of Contact Frame and CPU Guard

The AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame is a combination of Contact Frame and CPU-Guard for AMD’s Ryzen-7000 processors. As a Contact Frame, the AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame creates optimal contact pressure of the CPU into the socket, while an optional, included inlay made of silicone foam serves to protect the exposed components on the CPU.

Optimized Inner Contour for Even Pressure Distribution

The precision-milled inner contour of the AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame creates multiple contact points to the heatspreader compared to the standard SAM. These contact points distribute the contact pressure on the CPU evenly. This ensures that the contact surfaces of the CPU rest uniformly on the pins of the socket. For example, problems with the detection of system memory can be avoided this way.

Innovative Silicone Foam Inlay for Protection and Sealing

The AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame comes with a silicone foam inlay. This can be placed on the PCB of the processor, similar to the AMD Ryzen 7000 CPU Guard. When installing the AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame, the gap between the heatspreader and the aluminium frame is sealed by the silicone foam by pressing the foam onto the PCB. This prevents thermal paste or liquid metal from getting onto the CPU’s unprotected components. The foam inlay is optional when used with thermal pastes, but mandatory when used with liquid metal.

User-Friendly Assembly with Clear Marking and Compatibility

To simplify installation, there is a corresponding marking on the top of the AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame. Since the socket has a bulge on the upper – the “northern” – edge, mounting is only possible in one orientation. Four screws are included for mounting the frame and compatibility with the Thermal Grizzly AM5 backplates is given.
