Mounting kit Noctua NM-I17XX-MP83 for LGA 1700, silver mounting hardware

The Noctua NM-i17xx-MP83 is a SecuFirm2 mounting upgrade kit that enables Noctua CPU coolers with an 83 mm mounting pitch to be installed on Intel LGA1700 (LGA17xx family) platforms. The kit preserves SecuFirm2 characteristics such as reliable retention, correct contact pressure and straightforward installation to allow continued use of existing Noctua heatsinks on Intel’s latest Core series processors. The kit is finished in a durable silver coat and is intended specifically for coolers with an 83 mm mounting pattern; coolers with a 78 mm pitch require the NM-i17xx-MP78 kit.

Advantages

The NM-i17xx-MP83 provides a factory-quality SecuFirm2 mounting solution that maintains optimal contact pressure and long-term reliability while enabling compatibility with LGA1700 motherboards. Noctua offers the kit free of charge to owners of eligible coolers upon proof of purchase, and it is also available for purchase from selected resellers. The design supports easy and predictable installation and helps preserve the thermal performance of your existing Noctua heatsink when migrating to LGA17xx systems.

Suitable for

• Owners of Noctua CPU coolers with 83 mm mounting pitch who need LGA1700 support
• Users upgrading an existing PC to Intel LGA1700 / LGA17xx motherboards
• Systems where preserving an existing Noctua heatsink is preferred over buying a new cooler

How to use

Verify that your Noctua heatsink has an 83 mm mounting pitch and confirm compatibility with your LGA17xx motherboard using Noctua’s compatibility database before ordering or installing the kit. If eligible, request the free upgrade via Noctua’s form by providing proof of purchase for both the Noctua CPU cooler and either an LGA1700 motherboard or LGA1700 CPU. Alternatively, purchase the kit from a reseller and follow the included SecuFirm2 installation instructions to replace the existing mounting hardware on your heatsink and install it on the LGA1700 socket.

Recommendations

Check clearances and compatibility before installation: because LGA17xx clearance specifications differ from other sockets, ensure there is sufficient space around the CPU area and that the heatsink is listed as compatible in Noctua’s database. Noctua is not responsible for damage caused by incompatible combinations.
