Noctua introduces NM-M1 Torx® based SecuFirm2+™ Mounting Kits
Noctua today introduced its new NM-M1 enthusiast-grade multi-socket mounting kits. Available for Noctua coolers with 83 and 78mm mounting pitch, the NM-M1-MP83 and NM-M1-MP78 represent an ideal upgrade for users who want to migrate their Noctua CPU coolers to the new, Torx® based SecuFirm2+™ standard or to the latest sockets that their cooler did not yet support at the time of purchase. On AMD AM5, the offset mounting option can significantly improve performance with typical reductions in CPU temperatures of 1-3°C.
“The mounting system might seem like a sideshow when looking at a CPU cooler as a whole, yet in fact, it’s one of the key factors not only for the customer’s overall user experience but also for product safety and performance – poor contact pressure or contact quality can easily ruin your results even if the heatsink as such is working great”, explains Roland Mossig (Noctua CEO). “At Noctua, we have always taken pride in refining our mounting systems unremittingly, and the NM-M1 kits are a testament to this strive: integrating the latest SecuFirm2+™ standard as well as our offset mounting option for improved performance on AMD AM5, they keep raising the bar.”
