MD's Zen architecture was a milestone in CPU architecture and a stroke of genius for the Texas chipmaker. But instead of resting on its laurels, AMD has diligently developed the "Zen" processors. With the "Ryzen 3000 and the 5000" processor family based on the "Zen2" and the "Zen3" architecture, AMD has introduced a chiplet design, for example. The new Ryzens consist of 12 nm I/O dies and CPU dies, which are manufactured in a 7 nm process. However, this chiplet design has also changed the layout of the CPU dies on the package, which has also shifted the thermal center point.
With a processor with only one CPU die under the heatspreader, the "hot spot" is located in the middle of the CPU. However, the chiplet design shifts the "hot spot" to the edge of the processor.
Of course, this also has an influence on the cooling behavior of CPU coolers and CPU water coolers.
As a rule, custom water coolers are designed by the manufacturer in such a way that the heat dissipation is highest in the middle of the base plate. For an optimal cooling performance, the base plate of the water cooler would have to be moved.
This is where professional overclocker Roman Hartung comes into play to flexibly design the position of the base plate of the water cooling on the processor with the der8auer RYZEN 3000/5000 OC Custom mounting frame.

So far, only X570 motherboards have been tested for compatibility. However, the der8auer RYZEN 3000/5000 OC Custom mounting frame will also be compatible with a variety of older AM4 motherboards in the ATX and E-ATX form factor. With Mini-ITX motherboards, components are often in the way that prevent the kit from being used.
