Product information "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.

Properties

  • Water cooler for direct-die mounting
  • Microfin cooler made of nickel-plated copper
  • Replaces SAM and heatspreader
  • Acrylic and aluminum cover
  • G1/4-inch connections
  • CPU compatibility list available online
  • For delidded CPUs only! Caution: voids warranty!

Acrylic glass tempering and RGB lighting

Between the cold plate and the anodized aluminum lid is acrylic, which undergoes a tempering process after milling to relieve internal stress. This ensures that stress cracks do not form in the acrylic over time, unlike tempered acrylic. 

RGB LEDs are located under the aluminum lid, controllable via a 3-pin ARGB header (+5V/DATA/GND) on the motherboard. These LEDs illuminate the acrylic under the lid and the G1/4-inch fittings on the lid.

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 Socket Actuation Mechanism (SAM) of the mainboard may invalidate the manufacturer's warranty of the mainboard manufacturer!

Scope of Delivery

  • 1x Intel Mycro Direct-Die Pro RGB V1
  • 1x Pressure test protocol to 600 mbar
  • 4x Pan head screws UNC thread 3/8"
  • 1x Hexagon socket wrench 5/64"
  • 1x Torx T20 angle wrench

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

KryoSheet Usage Note

The Intel 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 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 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.
