Mounting kit Noctua NM-I17XX-MP78 for LGA 1700 socket, silver

The NM-i17xx-MP78 is a SecuFirm2 mounting upgrade kit that enables Noctua CPU coolers with a 78mm mounting pitch to be installed on Intel LGA1700 (LGA17xx family) platforms. It preserves SecuFirm2 characteristics such as reliable fixation, optimal contact pressure and straightforward installation so that existing Noctua heatsinks can be used with Intel’s recent Core-series processors. The kit has a silver finish and is intended for users who need LGA1700 compatibility for compatible Noctua coolers.

Advantages

It allows owners of eligible Noctua heatsinks to upgrade to LGA1700 without replacing the entire cooler and can be requested free of charge from Noctua (subject to proof of purchase and availability) or purchased from some resellers for a suggested service charge.

Suitable for

• Upgrading Noctua CPU coolers with 78mm mounting pitch to Intel LGA1700 sockets

How to use

Confirm that your Noctua heatsink has a 78mm mounting pitch and check the official Noctua compatibility database to ensure the heatsink and your LGA17xx motherboard meet the clearance and compatibility requirements. If eligible, order the kit via Noctua’s free replacement form by providing proof of purchase of both the Noctua cooler and an LGA1700 motherboard or CPU, or purchase the kit from a reseller. Follow the included SecuFirm2 installation instructions to replace the original mounting hardware with the NM-i17xx-MP78 and install the heatsink on the LGA1700 socket.

Recommendations

Verify physical clearance and motherboard compatibility before installation; Noctua is not responsible for damages or losses caused by incompatible heatsink/motherboard combinations. Use the NM-i17xx-MP83 kit for heatsinks with 83mm mounting pitch.
