The NM-i17xx-MP78 is a SecuFirm2 mounting upgrade kit that allows Noctua CPU coolers with 78mm mounting pitch (see detailed compatibility information) to be upgraded to Intels latest LGA1851 platform, as well as the previous LGA1700 socket. True to the SecuFirm2 tradition, it combines outstanding reliability, optimal contact pressure and easy, straightforward installation in order to enable Noctua users to continue using their heatsinks on Intel Core and Core Ultra series processors.
Socket Compatibility:Intel LGA1851, LGA1700Caution:This mounting upgrade kit makes it possible to install a Noctua heatsink, which has originally been designed for the LGA1700/1851 hardware. As the clearance specifications for LGA17xx differ from other sockets, it is crucial to verify that your heatsink is fully compatible with your LGA17xx motherboard before installation. Please consult our compatibility database in order to make sure that your motherboard is fully compatible with your heatsink.Cooler Compatibility:The following coolers can be made compatible to LGA17xx using the NM-i17xx-MP78 Upgrade-Kit: NH-U14S, NH-U12A, NH-U12S, NH-U12S chromax.black, NH-U12S SE-AM4, NH-U12S redux, NH-U9S, NH-U9S chromax.black, NH-L12S, NH-L12 Ghost S1 editionPlease Note:The NM-i17xx-MP78 is only compatible with heatsinks that have 78mm mounting pitch (see detailed compatibility information) and that the NM-i17xx-MP83 kit must be used for heatsinks with 83mm mounting pitch.SecuFirm2 mounting systems use high-grade coil springs to achieve perfect contact pressure. No guesswork regarding how far to tighten the mounting screws, no risk of damaging the socket with excessive pressure!
