Critics' Consensus

“The Thermalright LGA1700-BCF contact frame effectively reduces CPU temperatures by up to 12°C by preventing socket bending on Intel's LGA1700 platform. It is an affordable and easy-to-install solution, though users should consider the potential warranty risk and limited benefit if their cooler already makes good contact.”

“If you’re more concerned about CPU temperatures and system noise levels than you are about (probably) voiding your warranty, Thermalright’s LGA1700 contact frame is worth considering.”
