- Update: The method used is obsolete now since the new version can be screwed down with out needing to worry about torque. Remember, this footage was taken from my build in 2023.....
Ok guys, so here is another video using outtake footage of the Kratos God of War build.
On this one we install a Thermal Grizzly contact frame and test to see how accurate the instructions are, and if they even get close to the recommended torque. Let's check it out and see!

Also, the Thermalright one works just as good and I stand correct as to which one came first. In the video i said ThermalGrizzly came first, but a few people have stated the Thermal Right one did. What I do know for sure is that they both work well and one is cheaper.

EDIT/NOTE: So this method that was done last year is pretty much obsolete now! Why? Because the newer version of this contact frame does not to be adjusted/measured for perfect torque.....anyway this is another little video made from outakes of the GOW build. I got about 8 degrees cooler from just using the contact frame. Also a few other important points on this video:
1. Not sure if thermalright or the thermal grizzly came first, and I did not mean to insinuate that thermalright was one of the copy cats. What I do know is they both work about the same (yes I tested both) and one is priced much lower. Also I still feel that there are other knockoffs that copy designs, it is what it is in the industry.
2. This was a video put together using old unused footage and was meant to be more of a tongue in cheek video checking GN's work to just get things rolling with the new channel here. It was never meant to be a specific actual "how to install a contact frame" video, although there is some good information on there about it that is helpful. At first, I thought just a few people would see it. But I am now realizing that some people might have been looking for a "real" install video and ended up here. So I'll put together one soon and provide the link here soon.

blew me away when you used the torque driver, not many people get that technical. I do, which is why I always look for those types of specs on anything that requires building. Great job and content.
It’s such a cool little gadget! Thanks for stopping by!
We build our high end computers the same way, especially with custom loops and plexi, torquing every bolt and make a rapport from the computer. We have special work orders for our people. But She is doing one mistake, she should fasten the bolts, overhead and at a pattern. We started to use torque screwdrivers, when one of our guys, fastened a 600€+ motherboard too hard and I still can hear the snap. Good that our vendor replaced it with a new one. But this happened only once. Our guys themselves came up with the idea for the torq. I'm very lucky to have such workers, can't say that enough.
The contact frame was made by a German engineer and of course the markings are accurate, you don't have to prove that :)
I used the same frame on my 14700k, just did the x pattern to tighten. Everything has been fine.
Another great episode. Good info and tips, thanks.
I used the thermaltake or whatever ones. The price of this grizzly one makes no sense. Never had an issue
I used a torque screwdriver when I installed mine. As an auto tech for 40 years I'm pretty anal about accuracy when it comes to torqing nuts and bolts
Something to note is that the marking method is actually more accurate than the torque driver.
Screw torque relates to clamping torque based on a formula that has the friction of the threads as a variable. Which means there's always going to be some variation. It also means if you use anti-sieze or thermal paste on the screws the torque spec is going to be wildly wrong. However, the marking method is still correct.
If that's true this is great additional info thank you
great videos thank you!
Another quality content 😘👌
Watching your tech videos through the years on your other channel inspired me to finally build my first PC for video editing NEXT WEEK 🙌🏾. Would a contact frame also benefit an air cooled PC or are they more so for liquid cooled?
Nice! Congrats on your first build! Yes you will still benefit from a contact frame if you are using an Intel 1700 mobo.
@@SnaxanTech Sweet! I’ll definitely be adding this to my build then, thanks
@@NerdyRiver Cool! TBH, in every day applications and usage, you probably won't notice any performance difference, but there will be a measurable difference :)
@@SnaxanTech Ok that’s cool, thanks for letting me know. I’ll still install b/c I want this beast to last me a long time.
@@SnaxanTechI just uploaded my first PC build on CZcams! You might enjoy it 🫶🏾
Are we saving the film on the screw driver screen for an ASMR peel? hehe
That looks like a hell of a screw driver btw. Now I kinda want one of those. I'll leave the film on in honour of this video.
Wonder if you can help with a conversion?
I have a torque screwdrive that covers 0.3 - 1.2 nm, will that be of any use for this please?
Can't find any conversion for centi nano to nano.
So if i remember my math correctly (It's been a while!), the original thermal grizzly contact frame needed to be 4-6 centi nm which is .04-.06 nm. So yours will be too tight. BUT, the newer versions of the thermal contact frames don't need to be torqued at a certain level! You can also use the knockoff version (if you choose to) that's cheaper and doesn't need to be torqued perfectly too amzn.to/4agO9p8
@@SnaxanTech yes I have the newer Thermal Grizzly, like you I prefer to support the originators research effort.
Now wondering if spending £100 is worthwhile, considering its a £500 cpu. Wera have a sale on certain models here in the UK, 50% off! Wera 1430 Micro ESD 2.0 - 6.0 Ncm
@@LDWilliams Sometimes one that costs just 100 is good as 500, it really depends on what you are using for.
Now, what about mounting the cooling block???
On this build I ended up going with a delidded direct die. The video is here: czcams.com/video/Px4Yz--FsnU/video.htmlsi=ZLZDbaKn-SkCiDdj (Note that's on my old gaming channel, most of the tech stuff will be right here going forward).
Awesome content ❤️
Just warming up for now! The real Good stuff is coming :)
My Thermal Grizzly contact frame, did not fit on my Asus Prime Z790.
if i got it to fit on on corner, then the rest would not, the amount of force i would hav to use on the screws, did not seam right to me.
Had no issues with Thermalright contact frame
The theralright is just as good at much cheaper price point too
Your digital torque screwdriver ... it's beautiful🥰😃
Thanks it's a pretty fun little gadget :)
what model is it, and how much@@SnaxanTech scare us, LoL.
@@LDWilliams I actually borrowed the one in the video. I think it was a few hundred dollars! I actually found one that I liked better it's from Japan and it's non electronic. I'm saving up, I'll probably just put up a video of it.
@@SnaxanTech which one did you go for please? I've only found the brand Wera as anywhere near affordable
Isn’t the correct torque 0.6nm?
Where can I buy that screw driver?
The exact one in the video was from McMaster-Carr (I'm in the u.s.). The high quality ones are pretty pricey though
Nice 🙂, you go girl!
I think it's crazy, and a bit unacceptable, that _This_ even needs to be done.
It's a design flaw. And we're suppose to just _BUY_ additional products to correct the flaw. . . . no, . . simply, no.
Nice video, tho. Thank you, first time viewer, subbed, greetings from the Great State of Alaska.
Alaska seems so beautiful! and thank you and welcome to the fam here!
Also Intel seems to have finally corrected the issue with arrow lake we will see how well though.
I never really understood what the "Torque" means during my high school days😅 I still don't know it even now🤣
It just tells you how tight it is! :) Sometimes you don't want to make it too tight, or in other words, you don't want to "over" torque it.
Thanks for the explanation😀
On Intel messing up mostly just means worse thermals, on PGA-AMD; basically anything pre-DDR5 you can literally temporarily brick your socket, which is only resolved by removing torque again.
To be clear; this ain't a problem for an average user as they should use coolers that prevent overtorquing anyway.
I like your nails! They are really cool :)
God of War inspired!
You really don't need that torque screw device..all you do is screw criss cross eg 3 turns on corners, the. Again til it tightens wooshka.. works nice
You're right because this video used the old version of the contact frame where you had to measure. The new ones can be just screwed down.
The look on your face when you realize that your torque screw driver is not calibrated properly 😢😊
😩😂
Snaxan!! ❤❤❤
鬼滅のリアクション待ち遠しい
Thanks. You also might consider the length of your finger nails. It not optimal and practical for this type of work and yes I understand you want to look snazzy, complimenting your content creation.
I’ll be fine :) I pretty much finished this build along with all the other projects with them.
@@SnaxanTech Nice :D
Lost me with God of war build.
you need to get your facts straight!!! as Thermalright, were the first to come out to the market with this product. then came the Thermal Grizzly product. so it would be Thermal Grizzly that are the copycats!!!!
You could be right. If that's true I assumed wrong if I thought thermal grizzly was first. I wasn't referring to them in the video and also updated the pinned comment and description. Thanks for heads up!
you're wrong
Thats bullsh*t. Thermalright came way after Thermalgrizzly.
Thermalright was way after!
WHY ARE YOU ATTEMPTING TO IMPERSONATE = GAMERS NEXUS ???? Gamer's Nexusing Gamer's Nexus ?
Because we look so much alike. I for sure could get away with that.
@jamesfox2857 I think you misunderstand the title. In this video title she is using Gamers Nexusing as a verb. They are known for checking the accuracy of others claims work. So the irony here is that in this video, she is checking Gamer's Nexus' work. It's tongue in cheek.
