I was skeptical about contact frames, i was wrong though (13700k before and after)

By


So, basically after a while i decided to try one of those contact frame, picked the ThermalRight one + Noctua NT-H2 paste.

Cooler is a iCUE H150i RGB ELITE in both cases , CPU is running HT off.

Ran Linpack Stresstest 10GB *before* and *after*…

I wasn’t honestly expecting this kind of result.

I also took two pic of the cpu after taking out the cooler with the stock bracket ([HERE](https://imgur.com/a/RTJ3wJk) \- it looks bad).

    I got thrown off for a second looking at the first column.

    But yes guys, explanation is OP dropped 10c on the max temp and 20c on avg (if timed correctly) it seems.

    Varies from CPU to CPU… But it improved my temps by about 10-12C over the stock bracket. That’s well worth it imo.
