Noctua NM-M1-MP78 Mounting Kit, Silver

The NM-M1-MP78 is a specialized mounting upgrade kit designed for Noctua CPU coolers, facilitating compatibility with modern high-performance processor sockets. This hardware package supports current Intel platforms, including LGA1851 and LGA1700, alongside AMD AM5 and AM4 architectures. The kit implements the SecuFirm2+ mounting standard, engineered to deliver consistent and reliable contact pressure between the cooler base and the processor's Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS). This system utilizes a fixed 78 mm mounting pitch across the supported sockets.

A specific feature of this kit is the inclusion of an offset mounting option, which repositions the cooler slightly on AMD AM5 systems. This relocation aims to align the cooler base more directly over the centralized chiplets, a design consideration intended to improve thermal dissipation efficiency and potentially reduce overall operating temperatures under high load. The installation system relies on durable, Torx-based hardware, which facilitates secure and consistent torque application. The package includes all required screws and mounting components, along with a dedicated Torx T20 screwdriver for convenient assembly.
