Great for Peace of Mind and Slightly Lower Temps
Summary: It looks good, works well for the price, and installation is not hard (though you should "walk" the bracket down to avoid uneven mounting""Why is it cheaper than the other listing?" - It only comes with the bracket, instructions, and the hex key you need for the ILM screws, while some of the other listings also include thermal paste.Installation: Gamer's Nexus has a good video on this thing on YouTube that I recommend watching. The box comes with basic instructions since the whole process is pretty straightforward, but I recommend slowly screwing in each screw (about a quarter turn at a time) to ensure even mounting pressure. I torqued mine down until I felt pressure and then gave it a little more after that to make sure it was good. Make sure you go corner to corner diagonally when you are screwing it in.Results: I saw my idle temps come down to as low as 23 Celsius (about ambient), and an average idle temp reduction of about 2 degrees. While web browsing I actually saw a temperature reduction of 5-6 degrees (31 Celsius before, 25 after) which was interesting. It also seems to cool down faster. As for gaming, I never saw it go above 60 Celsius, and usually peaked at about 55 degrees in matches which was a reduction of about 5 degrees for both.As a disclaimer, I also changed my thermal paste from Artic Silver to Arctic MX-4. I made other changes to my system, such as going from 1080p to 1440p but I maintained the same FPS so that shouldn't affect CPU utilization much.Overall I definitely recommend this bracket, especially if you're worried about temps. It is definitely helping my cooler reduce my CPU temps and feels much more secure/even than the stock ILM bracket. I feel like this thing would be crucial in an ITX build or any small/low airflow builds in general.

Super Performance
Hatte mir einen I9-14900KF vor kurzem geholt und da hatte ich ganz schön temperatur probleme als ich mir diesen contact Frame gekauft habe muss ich sagen war ich wirklich verblüfft für das wenig geld was man zahlt ich habe knapp 10 minuten gebraucht um ihn anzubrigen und hatte manchmal bis zu 7-10 grad unterschied was gerade genug war um nicht ins thermaltrottlen zu gehen ich kanns wirklich nur jedem empfelen der noch das letze bisschen rausholen will.

No Improvement in Temps
I received the product advertised, but it has does nothing to improve my temps. I was hoping for a few degrees, but its still the same. I'm hoping it will at least stop my cpu from bending.

Easy install, Lowered my temps by 8C
Was very easy to install lowered temps by 8-10 on idle and load> Very worth the money, will be using in all my builds in the future

Easy install, good temps
My stock i7-14700k sits at around 26-30C idling, while gaming no more than 55C. Mounted on NZXT n7 Z790 motherboard.
