Noctua Mounting KIT LGA1700 - NM-i17xx-MP78

This is a mounting kit Noctua NM-i17xx-MP78, made specifically for transitioning to the Intel LGA 1700 socket. If you already have a Noctua cooler from the compatible series and are moving to a new platform, this kit allows you to keep it instead of buying a new cooler. You get the exact mounting brackets and accessories to install the cooler securely and correctly according to the new socket. The kit comes in black color, so it looks more discreet in darker builds.

What you get: with this mounting kit, you adapt the NH series of Noctua to LGA 1700, without compromising the pressure on the CPU and the positioning of the radiator. This way, you maintain the efficiency and quietness of the cooler, but with full compatibility with current motherboards. It is compatible with popular models such as NH-U9S, NH-U12S, NH-U14S, NH-U12A, NH-U12S redux, and NH-L12S, covering a large part of Noctua's mid-range and high-end air coolers. The 24-month warranty gives you peace of mind that the mounting system is designed to last long and not loosen over time.

• Mounting kit NM-i17xx-MP78, specifically designed for adapting to Intel LGA 1700 socket.
• Product type: mounting brackets, not a standalone cooler, allowing you to use your existing Noctua cooler.
• Official compatibility with models NH-U9S, NH-U12S, NH-U14S, NH-U12A, NH-U12S redux, NH-L12S, so you don't have to guess if it will fit your cooler.
• Optimized for correct mounting on LGA 1700, ensuring even pressure on the CPU and no socket distortion.
• Design in black color, which fits better in dark and “stealth” configurations compared to standard metal mounts.
• Manufactured by Noctua, meaning the mounting mechanics follow their familiar logic for easy and secure installation.
• 24 months warranty, which is a significant plus for an otherwise small but critical component in the system.

Who it is suitable for: if you already have one of the supported Noctua coolers and are transitioning to a platform with LGA 1700, this is the practical solution to keep it. It is suitable for people who value quality air cooling and do not want to part with it during an upgrade. It won't work for you if your cooler is not from the specified series or if you are looking for an entirely new cooling solution.

The most sensible thing here is that with a relatively simple mounting kit, you extend the life of a quality Noctua cooler and adapt it to the current LGA 1700 standard, without compromising on installation or aesthetics.
