The independent loading mechanism (ILM) of Intel deforms the CPU by pressing it into the socket at two points with over 40 kilograms. This causes stress on the board, the DIE, and the solder layer between the DIE and the IHS (Integrated Heat Spreader).
With a high thermal load, this can lead to long-term issues. The mounting frame from ARCTIC does not deform the CPU, massively reduces the mechanical load on the CPU, installs quickly and easily, and allows the cooler to be screwed onto the backplate of the CPU. As a result, the mechanical stress on the motherboard and CPU is minimized, cooling performance remains stable, and installation is quick and simple.
