Intel Mycro Direct-Die Pro
The Intel Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1 is equipped with a jet system on the cooler surface and the cooling channel slot width has been optimized. The coldplate of the cooler is made of nickel-plated copper and is mounted directly on the CPU chip. To do this, the Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM) of the mainboard is removed and the processor must be delidded. The nickel-plating of the cooler plate creates a barrier layer so that gallium-based liquid metal cannot diffuse into the copper and multiple applications of liquid metal are generally not necessary.
- Water cooler for direct-die mounting
- Microfin cooler made of nickel-plated copper
- Replaces ILM and heatspreader
- Acrylic glass and aluminum cover
- G1/4-inch connections
- CPU compatibility list available online
- Only for delidded CPUs! Attention: Loss of warranty!
Between the coldplate and the cover made of anodized aluminium is acrylic glass, which is subjected to a annealing process after milling, which relieves the acrylic glass of internal stresses. This ensures that no stress cracks form in the acrylic glass even after a long period of use, as can occur with tempered acrylic glass. RGB LEDs are located under the aluminum cover, which are controlled via the mainboard via a 3-pin ARGB header (+5V/DATA/GND). The LEDs illuminate the acrylic glass under the lid and the G1/4-inch connections in the lid.
KryoSheet Usage Note
The Intel 1851 Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1 has been extensively tested internally in various scenarios. During development, the focus was placed on ensuring stable operation of the processor and memory. The Intel 1851 Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1 is mounted in such a way that the cooler’s outer edges do not rest on the motherboard.
In our test series, KryoSheet combined with the Intel 1851 Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1 did not provide significant improvements in temperature and posed issues with contact pressure. Therefore, we do not recommend thermal pads, as their additional thickness significantly affects contact pressure, which can impact performance.
Compatibility note
The Intel Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1 is compatible with the following processors:
- Intel 12th Gen CPUs
- Intel 13th Gen CPUs
- Intel 14th Gen CPUs
Attention:
Removing the heatspreader (“delidding”) of a processor is at your own risk!
The manufacturer's warranty expires when the CPU is delidded!
Damage caused by delidding the CPU is not covered by the manufacturer's warranty!
Removing the Integrated Loading Mechanism (ILM) of the mainboard may invalidate the manufacturer's warranty of the mainboard manufacturer!
