Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
This is a perfect real world example of why companies outsource, very minimal difference in quality/performance and 85% cheaper.
Can't even get Thermal Grizzly's frame anywhere.
Anyone remember copper/anodized aluminum shims for Athlons?
Given that Thermalright was apparently first to market with their solution, too, it's just clearly the more attractive product.
TG's better quality in terms of fewer burrs and tighter tolerances seemingly doesn't have a measurable advantage in the end.
It's fine to pay a premium for better quality and made in Germany, but from what I've seen, I'd probably prefer Thermalright's solution even at the same price, thanks to simpler but just as effective mounting.
They tried so hard to make people buy thermal grizzly's frame instead.
Can someone give me a link to buy the $4.35 Thermalright?
Mike makes it look easy, but I am curious how many first time builders and even veteran builders would mess up swapping the ILM?
TLDW:
Thermal Grizzly's $35 contact frame : 8 C under stock
Thermalright $4.35 contact frame : 9.7 C under stock

Be carefully when installing.
I happened to have one sitting on my desk for a week, but I had been lazy. This video made me finally install it, so thanks for that. I booted up normally and I'm typing this right now, so I guess I didn't screw up anything.
Installation was surprisingly easy, I think they amount of time they spent in the video warning users was a bit excessive. But maybe it's better to be safe than sorry. LGA1700 mobos are expensive and you don't want to be fucking up your pins.
