The NM-AM5/4-MP78 kit is compatible with a wide range of Noctua CPU coolers that use 78mm mounting pitch, whereas heatsinks with 83mm mounting pitch must use the MP83 version. Please refer to Noctua's detailed compatibility information to check which kit is right for your cooler.
Over the years, SecuFirm2™ has become synonymous with impeccable long-term stability and flawless craftsmanship. Enthusiast users and industry clients alike trust the time-tested quality of Noctua's professional mounting systems.
SecuFirm2 mounting systems use high-grade coil springs to achieve perfect contact pressure. No guesswork regarding how far to tighten the mounting screws, and no risk of damaging the socket with excessive force!
Minimising unnecessary waste and facilitating the installation procedure, the NM-AM5/4 kits install to the stock AMD backplate pre-installed on the motherboard.
Aiming to cut costs, many manufacturers use cross-platform parts for both AMD and Intel, which can cause compatibility issues. Noctua's SecuFirm2 mounting system for AM5 and AM4 has been tailor-made for these sockets to ensure optimal compatibility and ease of installation.
Noctua CPU coolers are renowned for being safe, long-term investments that can be used for several CPU generations. Accordingly, even coolers that are 15 years or older can be upgraded to the latest AMD Ryzen platform using this mounting kit.
Using a CPU cooler across several platform generations instead of buying a new heatsink for each generation is economical and helps reduce unnecessary waste and save precious resources. You're actively contributing to a more sustainable PC industry by upgrading rather than replacing your cooler.
