Thermal Grizzly Mycro Direct-Die CPU Water Block - Socket AM5
- Water cooler for direct die mounting - Nickel-plated copper micro-fin cooler - Replaces SAM and heat spreader - Cover made of CNC-milled POM - G1/4 inch connections - For delidded CPUs only! The Thermal Grizzly Mycro Direct-Die CPU water cooler for socket AM5 The AM5 Mycro Direct-Die is a water cooler for AMD's Ryzen 7000 processors that sits directly on the chiplets of a deliddeten (decapitated) CPU. Constructed from nickel-plated copper, the direct-die water cooler offers outstanding thermal conductivity. This is further increased by an optimized structure of the microfins on the top. In addition, direct-die cooling eliminates a layer of heat conducting agent and the CPU's heat spreader compared to normal water cooling. This significantly improves the heat transfer from the CPU to the water cooling circuit. The cover of the AM5 Mycro Direct-Die is made of CNC-milled polyoxymethylene (POM) and has an inlet and outlet in the form of G1/4 inch threads. The AM5 Mycro Direct-Die's nickel-plated finish is compatible with traditional thermal compounds and gallium-based liquid metals. The nickel forms a barrier between the liquid metal and the copper cooler, preventing liquid metal from diffusing into the copper and minimizing alloy formation. As a result, repeated application of liquid metal is generally not necessary. A KryoSheet graphene thermal pad can be used as the thermal interface between the CPU and the AM5 Mycro Direct-Die for the most maintenance-free system possible. Since KryoSheet pads are electrically conductive, a cover is included to protect the electronic components on the CPU package.
