Best selling CPU water cooler accessories

Here’s a ranking of the best selling CPU water cooler accessories. To give you a quick overview, we’ve added the most important information about each product. This page always stays fresh and updates automatically.

1. Thermal Grizzly AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame

Combination of contact frame and CPU guard

The AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame is a combination of contact frame and CPU guard for AMD's Ryzen 7000 processors. As a contact frame, the AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame creates optimal contact pressure of the CPU into the socket, while an optional inlay made of silicone foam serves to protect the exposed components on the CPU.
- Encloses the heat spreader
- Replaces the SAM of the mainboard
- Made of anodized aluminum

Optimized inner contour for even pressure distribution

The precision-milled inner contour of the AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame creates multiple contact points to the heat spreader compared to the standard SAM. These contact points distribute the contact pressure on the CPU evenly. This ensures that the contact surfaces of the CPU rest uniformly on the pins of the socket. For example, problems with the detection of system memory can be avoided this way.

Innovative silicone foam inlay for protection and sealing

The AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame comes with a silicone foam inlay. This can be placed on the PCB of the processor, similar to the AMD Ryzen 7000 CPU guard. When installing the AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame, the gap between the heat spreader and the aluminum frame is sealed by the silicone foam by pressing the foam onto the PCB. This prevents thermal paste or liquid metal from getting onto the CPU's unprotected components. The foam inlay is optional when used with thermal pastes, but mandatory when used with liquid metal.

User-friendly assembly with clear marking and compatibility

To simplify installation, there is a corresponding marking on the top of the AM5 Contact & Sealing Frame. Since the socket has a bulge on the upper edge, mounting is only possible in one orientation. Four screws are included for mounting the frame and compatibility with the Thermal Grizzly AM5 backplates is given. 

2. Thermal Grizzly Grizzly Intel 12th Gen CPU Contact Frame

The CPU Contact Frame for Intel 13th and 14th generation processors is an essential accessory for water cooling systems that replaces the original Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM) of the motherboard. This mounting aid optimizes the clamping pressure, significantly improving cooling performance. Due to the altered dimensions of the Intel Raptor Lake processors and the associated changes to the LGA1700 socket, new mounting brackets are required. The standard ILM only has contact points in the center of the CPU, leading to uneven pressure distribution and a concave bulge of the Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS). The CPU Contact Frame shifts the clamping pressure from the center to the edges, achieving even pressure distribution and a larger contact area with the CPU cooler. This allows for better coverage of the thermal hotspot and optimizes cooling performance, especially in overclocking applications.

Highlights:
- Made from high-quality aluminum for durability and optimal heat conduction
- Supports Intel LGA1700 socket, compatible with 13th and 14th generation processors
- Improves cooling performance through even pressure distribution and larger contact area. 

3. Thermal Grizzly CPU Contact Frame 1700

The Thermal Grizzly CPU Contact Frame 1700 is a specialized bracket designed for use with Intel motherboards featuring the LGA1700 socket. This accessory optimizes the contact between the CPU and the cooling system, leading to improved heat transfer and, consequently, more efficient cooling. The frame is made from high-quality materials to ensure long-lasting and reliable performance. Its precise construction optimizes the contact pressure of the CPU, which can enhance the overall performance of the system. The CPU Contact Frame is an essential component for anyone looking to maximize the efficiency of their computer, whether for gaming, professional applications, or everyday use.

- Optimizes contact between CPU and cooling system
- Improves heat transfer for more efficient cooling
- Compatible with Intel motherboards featuring LGA1700 socket. 

4. Thermal Grizzly TG Intel 1851 CPU Contact Frame V1

Improved Cooling Performance through Mounting Frame

The Intel 1851 CPU Contact Frame serves as a mounting aid and replaces the original Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM) of the motherboard. With an optimized clamping pressure, it contributes to improved cooling performance of the CPU coolers.

Overclocking to the Limit

The Intel LGA 1851 CPU Contact Frame replaces the ILM of the motherboard. A special internal contour shifts the clamping pressure from the center to the edges during installation, preventing a concave bulging of the CPU. This increases the potential contact area with the CPU cooler, allowing for better coverage of the hotspot. 

5. Endorfy CPC Spartan 5 ARGB

The Endorfy Spartan 5 ARGB is a lit cooler that not only looks cool but is also particularly quiet. It keeps the CPU temperature low. At its tallest point, the Spartan 5 ARGB stands 14.6 cm high—enough to fit into compact cases and enhance them with ARGB lighting. The colorful glow is supported by a 120 mm Fluctus 120 PWM ARGB fan, which Endorfy has paired with a densely ribbed heatsink. The Spartan 5 ARGB is also compatible with many sockets (from older ones like AM2 and LGA1156 to AM5 and LGA1700) and large RAM sticks. 

6. Deepcool AM5 Mounting Bracket Kit for CASTLE/GAMMAXX Liquid Coolers

For mounting CPU coolers.

7. Corsair iCUE LINK LCD Module, Black

Corsair iCUE Link redefines system cooling and aesthetics with its liquid cooling system pump LCD screen module. It is designed for enthusiasts seeking both performance and customization, featuring a 2.1-inch IPS LCD display that not only allows real-time system monitoring but also offers personalized graphics that match the theme of your setup. The integrated RGB LED lighting adds a new dimension of customization, with vibrant colors that can be tailored to your taste. Installation is straightforward and tool-free, ensuring a hassle-free setup. Compatibility with Corsair iCUE software enables control over your system's cooling and lighting, making it an essential addition to any high-performance system. 

8. NZXT Upgrade Kit PM-KXZSAB0-000

Upgrade kit for Intel socket LGA1700, for AiO watercooling from NZXT, compatible with Kraken Series X / Z, foolproof installation.

9. Intertech AC CPU cooler bracket KH-003, socket 1700

AC CPU cooler bracket KH-003 S.1700 (88885600).

10. Corsair iCUE LINK LCD Module, White

Upgrade your iCUE Link RGB CPU cooler with a custom 2.1-inch IPS LCD screen. This screen features a resolution of 480x480 pixels and an ultra-bright backlight of 600 cd/m², displaying the CPU temperature in real-time, your favorite GIF, the funniest meme, or your team's logo at 30 FPS in over 16.7 million colors.
