Kit di upgrade per frame Thermal Grizzly TG-CF-I1851-V1 alluminio nero 71x51x6mm

The Thermal Grizzly Intel 1851 CPU Contact Frame V1 is a mounting aid for Intel LGA1851 motherboards that replaces the standard Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM). Made from anodized aluminium with dimensions of 71×51×6 mm, the contact frame evens out pressure on the CPU and reduces concave deformation of the CPU Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS), improving contact between the IHS and the CPU cooler and resulting in lower temperatures.

Advantages

The frame reduces CPU temperatures by improving mechanical contact between the cooler and the IHS. It is made of anodized aluminium for durability and a clean appearance, and installation is straightforward, requiring only a few steps. When replacing an RL‑ILM or standard ILM, measurable drops in processor temperature can be expected.

Suitable for

• Intel Core Ultra 200 Series processors on LGA1851 socket
• Setups where ILM-caused IHS bending reduces cooling efficiency
• Systems where the IHS has been sanded down by no more than 0.2 mm
• Motherboards with sufficient clearance under the CPU area (check for components under the frame)

Key specifications

• Model: Intel 1851 CPU Contact Frame V1 (TG-CF-I1851-V1)
• Material: Anodized aluminium
• Colour: Black
• Dimensions: 71 × 51 × 6 mm
• Compatibility: LGA1851 socket, Intel Core Ultra 200 Series; compatible with CPUs whose IHS is milled up to 0.2 mm
• Package contents: 1× contact frame, 4× cylinder head screws (3/8" UNC), 1× 5/64" hex key, 1× Torx T20 key

How to use

Remove the motherboard's existing Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM) and install the contact frame in its place following the included hardware and tools. Fasten the frame using the supplied screws and keys, then mount your CPU cooler as usual. During installation, ensure there are no electronic components directly under the frame area; this is especially important for Mini‑ITX motherboards. Observe manufacturer torque recommendations for screws if provided.

Recommendations

Removing the ILM may void the motherboard manufacturer's warranty. Expect temperature reductions of up to approximately 4°C when replacing an RL‑ILM and up to approximately 6°C when replacing a standard ILM, depending on cooler and CPU. Do not use the frame if the CPU IHS has been removed or machined beyond 0.2 mm depth.
