If you are the kind of particular person to wish to colour-match your elements down to each excruciating element, you may wish to take a look at this new product from Hyte.
This is Hyte’s Solid Processor Frame, and, uh, it is a body to your processor made out of CNC aluminium. It is out there for AM5, LGA 1851, and LGA 1700 sockets.
The body sits round your CPU, including extra floor space between your CPU cooler and CPU’s IHS.
For Intel’s thirteenth/14th Gen processors, it might assist cut back the danger of your chip bending by supporting the CPU and providing a degree floor space. This is one thing to contemplate doing with a model new processor, not a lot a used one, as as soon as a chip is bent it is unlikely to bend again.
When mixed with an AMD processor, the Solid Processor Frame is just not actually doing a lot apart from trying fairly (when you may even see it beneath your cooler, that’s). Hyte tells me it’ll assist with eradicating TIM (thermal paste) in a single simple movement and with out it getting caught inside all of the nooks and crannies of the AM5 heatspreader, although historical past dictates I’m prone to nonetheless make a large number anyhow.

It’s largely in regards to the seems. That’s why Hyte is producing many alternative colourways. All types of pastel pinks, purples, blues, and even a restricted shiny golden model, which Hyte says it will not even have too a lot of and is generally only for displaying off the idea.
Though how a lot you’ll see of this body as soon as put in will rely in your motherboard and selection of CPU cooler. There’s a fairly good likelihood you do not see a lot of it in any respect.
So, it is partially, if not generally solely, pointless. But the excellent news is that it solely prices $20 and comes with Hyte’s new Thermal Goop compound. Plus, us PC avid gamers love spending cash on issues we do not actually need, and I’m fairly tempted myself.
