Investigating Intel's CPU Socket Problems | Thermal Grizzly Contact Frame Benchmark
Sponsor: Linode Hosting - get $100 credit with GN (https://geni.us/UaKrUmF)
Intel's CPU socket for the Alder Lake (12th Gen) CPUs applies higher pressure on one side, causing reduced pressure between the cooler coldplate and CPU. We're replacing the stock Intel ILM (on the socket) with a Thermal Grizzly Contact Frame. Testing includes analysis of pressure on the 12900KS, 12900K, and other CPUs, core-to-core deltas, thermals, and more.
The best way to support our work is through our store: https://store.gamersnexus.net/
-- we currently have toolkits, modmats, mouse mats, and shirts in stock! The PC building modmats are VERY LOW stock, so if you want one, buy it soon! https://store.gamersnexus.net/products/modmat-volt-large
We're pushing a new Patreon bonus behind-the-scenes video tomorrow! Support us and also get access here: http://www.patreon.com/gamersnexus
