Noctua NM-AM5/4-MP83 Mounting Kit

Noctua’s NM-AM5/4-MP83 Mounting Kit is an inexpensive way of adding AM5 and 4 compatibility to your existing Noctua CPU cooler.

The NM-AM5/4-MP83 is a SecuFirm2 mounting upgrade kit that allows Noctua CPU coolers with 83mm mounting pitch (see detailed compatibility information) to be upgraded to AMD’s AM5 and AM4 platforms. True to the SecuFirm2 tradition, it combines outstanding reliability, optimal contact pressure and easy, straightforward installation in order to enable Noctua users to continue using their heatsinks on AMD’s latest Ryzen processors.

For Noctua coolers with 83mm mounting pitch

The NM-AM5/4-MP83 kit is compatible with a wide range of Noctua CPU coolers that use 83mm mounting pitch, whereas heatsinks with 78mm mounting pitch must use the MP78 version. Please refer to our detailed compatibility information to check which kit is right for your cooler.

Trusted SecuFirm2 quality

Over the years, SecuFirm2 has become synonymous with impeccable long-term stability and flawless craftsmanship. Enthusiast users and industry clients alike trust the time-tested quality of Noctua’s professional mounting systems.

Perfect contact pressure

SecuFirm2™ mounting systems use high-grade coil springs to achieve perfect contact pressure. No guesswork regarding how far to tighten the mounting screws, no risk of damaging the socket with excessive pressure!

Standard AMD backplate

Minimising unnecessary waste and facilitating the installation procedure, the NM-AM5/4 kits install to the stock AMD backplate that is pre-installed on the motherboard.

Tailor-made for AM5/AM4

Aiming to cut costs, many manufacturers use cross-platform parts for both AMD and Intel, which can cause compatibility issues. Noctua’s SecuFirm2 mounting system for AM5 and AM4 has been tailor-made for these sockets in order to ensure optimal compatibility and ease of installation.

Backwards compatibility

Noctua CPU coolers are renowned for being safe, long-term investments that can be used for several CPU generations. Accordingly, even coolers that are 15 years or older can be upgraded to the latest AMD Ryzen platform using this mounting kit.

Sustainability

Using a CPU cooler across several platform generations instead of buying a new heatsink for each generation is not only economical, it also helps to reduce unnecessary waste and save precious resources. By upgrading rather than replacing your cooler, you’re actively contributing to a more sustainable PC industry.

Owners of Noctua CPU coolers can obtain the this kit free of charge via this form. A proof of purchase (electronic version, photo or scan of the invoice) of both a Noctua CPU cooler and either a socket AM5 motherboard or socket AM5 CPU are required.

*Please note that the NM-AM5/4-MP83 is only compatible with heatsinks that have 83mm mounting pitch (see detailed compatibility information) and that the NM-AM5/4-MP78 kit must be used for heatsinks with 78mm mounting pitch.
